My advice to NEW jumpers on the subject of INSTRUCTORS....
Research the teacher you choose. Not all teachers are equal. A majority of instructors are FAR under-qualified and are teaching for EGO, or BEER, Or BOTH.
The ones that don't hunt for you, but make you hunt for them; and the ones that make you work your BUT off at the DZ and ground crew, are the intelligent ones that you should seek out.
Search for references on your instructor. If they know enough to teach you correctly, many other people will also know them. If nobody knows them, they have probably not been BASE jumping long enough to actually know what to teach you.
What you don't know about BASE-jumping, Can/Will Kill or seriously injure you.
