huge project!

[astorino]

i was wondering if i could interview some people on here and throw a few questions your way? i am a senior in high school going to embry-riddle in the fall. I'm going to start skydiving in the next few months and work up jumps so i can progress onto BASE Jumping.


I would greatly appreciate everyones help on gathering information so i can help spread the word about this amazing sport.


thanks
