Hi! I was offered the chance to go skydiving with friends, once I checked the weight restrictions they were the following including skydiving gear weight :-
13st for females - 182lbs
15st for males 210lbs

Any ideas why the female one is so low:(? I'm really annoyed at the fact I could not attended /:
Any excuses to say why I cannot attended?:/
Thanks

    That is odd. There isn't female/male equipment, at least that I recall.
    I would think it would be the same.

    I can't think of any reason why there is different weight restrictions or why the female one is so low:(
    I need excuses to make up:(

    Aren't we lighter when we're not in the atmosphere?

    Might be going by the number on your driver's license...

    I understand a weight restriction for things like this - but no idea why it is different for men and women.
