Skydiving is cool. Definitely worth doing once. Tandem is probably a better choice than static line if you only do it once.

Some people start right out with AFF, but I think the tandem first gets all the first jump jitters out of the way in a safer, more controlled fashion. I'd probably do another tandem before I went through AFF if I was going to get my certification.

Not sure you can even base jump without a skydiving certification, and your own equipment, and most base jumpers have 100s if not thousands of regular sky dives I beleive prior to trying base...
