skydiving or basejumping??

If you go through the right channels in aus you will need to join a club and get your skydiving license (several thousand for a course and a secondhand rig). Then you will need to complete at least 200 jumps (around $40 per jump if you have your own rig.) Then you can purchase your own wingsuit quite cheaply and start learning to fly from a plane before progressing to base :). There are people who run base courses in the US if you are really keen (must have 200 jumps from a plane first)

I lived with 2 quite experienced skydivers for awhile so just recounting what ive been told.

If you get into base be ready for your freinds to start dyeing......:s:
