We don't blame you for getting hooked and wanting to continue on to learn to jump on your own and get your license through the United States Parachute Association.  Now that Spring is here and the weather is starting to calm down and be reliable enough for student jumps (USPA says that wind need to be below 14 mph for students) it time to learn.
