Yeah, I've done 9 jumps. The first one (tandem) was definitely the least inspiring.
2 to 8 were by myself (instructor jumped out alongside) and much more fun - spinning around, tracking across and stuff.
9th jump was badly hungover and/or still half pissed. Scared the $#!7 outta myself (lots of tumbling, couldn't get level to open the 'chute) and I haven't been back since!
Although I always thought that I could go back to it without any hassles if I felt so inspired, but I haven't had the urge (yet...)
If you are looking to scare yourself stupid with extreme height, falling sensations, etc, then you are right - you don't really get much of that. But I still found it a rush, as I guess do the blokes with thousands of jumps behind them who still reckon they get an adrenaline hit every time they jump.
Each to their own, I suppose. Maybe bungee would be more your thing?
