Should I start the sport?
Post Body

Hi!

I have a question. I went tandem skydiving 4 times, approximately 2 times per year for the past 2 years, and have a fifth tandem jump planned in may.

I love it, but also i'm scared. I love the ride up the plane and canopy flying. I do adrenaline-heavy sport : Ice Climbing, backcountry skiing, rock climbing. But when I first get out of the plane, I honestly somewhat freeze for the first half of the freefall ( good thing there's a tandem instructor). I like it, amd every time I just can't wait to go back, but I feel like I might not be good enough or like... courageous enough for doing an AFF.

Do any of you had similar feelings and still started the sport? Did your AFF went well?

How did you overcome your fears?

I'd love to start the sport though, it really seems amazing and I love it when I jump!
