It's summer. We skydive. I made an edit.

This is my first skydive edit so far. I wanted to share and let me know what you think! I used the color corrector 3-way in FCP, but I'm not extremely happy with it. I want to try Magic Bullet next time.

I have no real suggestions or critiques, but it did make me really want to skydive again. Awesome view there too!

This makes me want to skydive. How hard is it to get into it?

Do you rent the chute? and can you just go in shorts and a t shirt?

I did a tandem dive, strapped to an instructor, for a first time that is probably your best option, the chute and a jumpsuit and helmet were included in the $250.

Awesome, so down the road do you buy your own? Is there such thing as a good and a bad parachute? I mean, you kinda are trusting it with your life.

The AFF course will include gear with the jumps. That lasts 5-7 jumps (depending on the dropzone) then you are cleared to jump by yourself. From there you can rent or buy your own. Most people buy their own gear after 25-50 jumps.
