skydiving + rafting in Asia

[luxiana]

hello,

I would like to take a license and learn skydiving (basically: I want to jump out of a plane at high altitude )

are there some skydiving enthusiasts here? if so, could they point me inthe direction so I can take the license soon please??

As for rafting: is it not in Singapore that you can do that for sure... what would be the closest place to singapore to go rafting on w.ends??

Thanks

hope this helps ..

I did airborne during my army days.... Initially, I was still very excited about it... But however, the more I jump, the more scare I feel... Ha... No idea why...

well, take it for granted: I am very excited! (I have never jumped...)

but I am scared of trying bungee jumping and not sky diving... don't know why.

I'll check what is available in malaysia then.

thanks for the answers

Hi,

Check out website www.skydiveasia.org
Look for Danniel, he's one of AFF skydive instructors, the jumps usually take places overseas, nearby countries. There's one coming up next week in Ipoh, Malaysia from Helicopter.
Or check out www.skydive.com.sg
Look for Alex/Thomas, they are a school, training skydivers, jumps takes places overseas also. Nothing in Singapore.
If you want try high altitude, you might want to go further countries like US or Australia with bigger planes.
Cheers,
