I was thinking for years about doing it, as my ultimate challenge, but the older I got, the less I see it as a challenge, since my life started to give me that anyway, without jumping out of a plane, I rather jump a wave!

Seriously considering getting back in a BRCM short ( my challenge)

Me too
But I was scared shitless, and would have backed down if I had not been with my piers and I was 18.
Once was enough.
The funny part
I came home to my mom's house, just about as proud as I could be ... feeling like I conquered the world. She was mopping the floor and I proudly presented her the first jump certificate the jump school gave us.
She read it and then promptly beat the shit out of me with the mop. <g>
