Hey I have been looking and contacting places to no success, I am trying to get an AFF course but because I am 6ft 4 and 112kg there seems to be no places that will accommodate, from what I have been told some places don't have a canopy size to suit me and others say the first tandem jump rig cant accommodate me and the instructor.

She is a AFF instructor and could advise best
