Better not go for the activity than free fall through 15,000 feet of haze.<\/li>\n<li>Know that if you are a female, you can request for a female jumpmaster.<\/li>\n<li>Keep your helmet on at all times. It is not to protect your head during the actual activity but to prevent injury from toppling after you land.<\/li>\n<li>Familiarize yourself with the signs used to communicate mid-air as the verbal medium will be rather useless during free fall.<\/li>\n<li>Do not hesitate to ask your jumpmaster to check your pieces of equipment before the jump.<\/li>\n<li>Take a few deep breaths and calm yourself down before the jump. Then, take that leap of faith!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[tcb-script src=&#8221;https:\/\/cdnjs.cloudflare.com\/ajax\/libs\/jquery\/3.5.1\/jquery.min.js&#8221; integrity=&#8221;sha512-bLT0Qm9VnAYZDflyKcBaQ2gg0hSYNQrJ8RilYldYQ1FxQYoCLtUjuuRuZo+fjqhx\/qtq\/1itJ0C2ejDxltZVFg==&#8221;
