    According to the United States Parachute Association:

    All participants in skydiving must meet the USPA's Basic Safety Requirements for medical fitness. A person should be in good health and physical condition to skydive and should not be on medication which could affect judgement or performance. Some medical conditions can be properly managed if the instructor knows about them. People who have recently gone SCUBA diving or donated blood may need to wait a few days.

    All persons engaging in skydiving should:

    A. Carry a valid Class I, II or III Federal Aviation Administration Medical Certificate; OR

    B. Carry a certificate of physical fitness for skydiving from a registered physician; OR

    C. Have completed the USPA recommended medical statement.
