A tandem is extremely safe and a good intro to what to expect. Just my 0.02
Yeah, I've thought about that. For this reason, static line makes sense, just in case. Or if an instructor feels strongly that tandem is the way to go, then I'd consider it. But I'd really rather do it myself. Broken legs or no.
