    To those that jump, no explanation is necessary.

    I Skydive because it scares me. I have just over 200 jumps and it still scares me. But when I'm in that door and it's go time, I never think twice. That's probably because everyone behind me is yelling go go go lol

    Hey Salvador, probably this is a weird question but lmk if you can answer it.
    Are you required to be a U.S citizen or permanent resident in the US to start your AFF ? Do you think a guy like me with no status in the US but with work authorization and Driver’s License can start skydiving?

    • @SalvadorChangg
      @SalvadorChangg  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ooouuffff… that’s a tough question brother. If I was you I would call your local Drop Zone and ask them that question. I’m sure they would be able to better assist you. I wish I could help but I’m not properly informed and would hate to give you false information. Blue skies, I hope it works out and you can jump!!

    Hey Sal!
    Could you do a video on how skydivers overcome their fears? Especially student jumpers. Someone close to me is looking to transition from tandem to AFF; they feel bad over not making a solo jump.
    See you at the drop zone!

    • @SalvadorChangg
      @SalvadorChangg  2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Hey Aaron, In my opinion choosing to skydive is a personal choice. The individual has to want it for themselves. I believe the real question is, dose the individual want to skydive solo, and if the answer is yes, do they want to skydive solo bad enough to over come a fear they have that is stopping them? I’m a firm believer that all fears are made up. Fears are limiting beliefs we create for ourselves and over coming that blockade is a personal journey. The individual has to want it for themselves. Once again, just my personal opinion. Hope it helps, blue skies brother 🤙🏼

    I can relate to most of the folks you asked- but none more than Tru.
    I have bad, bad PTSD, which is an anxiety disorder.
    When I jump out of a plane it all goes away and nothing matters but the next few minutes.
    You go, Tru..!
    Also, everyone I've met at the dropzone are really cool and friendly and easy to talk to- unlike my experience of most folks in the general public.

David and Colbe both touched on quite a few of the reasons I also Skydive and can totally relate to their responses! 😁🤙🏼 Like David, it all started with a desire and after my 1st Tandem when I was 23, the fire 🔥 was LIT! Like Colbe, I also am a Christian ✝️ and know where I'm going, so Nothing is keeping me from being in the skys where i aspire to spend eternity anyway, lol...! 😎🙏🏼 After 2 more Tandems in subsequent years, I joined the Army and became a Parachute Rigger because it Guaranteed I would be Airborn... I have been out since 2014 and this year I decided I need to fulfill my dreams to be a Skydiver and started AFF back in April. I am 3 jumps away from my A-License now and I'm already thinking about my next 25 jumps and B-License etc, lol!
