Check out U.S. Parachute Association > Find a DZ to find out your closest skydiving dropzone / center. Give them a call and book yourself onto an AFF course...

Right on Mac!

On the skydiving side. Where do you live? area?

I would tend to save a bunch of money, and take a holiday to... Say Eloy Arizona in the winter for 2 weeks and bust out 100 jumps.....
