Does anyone else here sky dive?

Hi all!
I absolutely LOVE sky diving!! I’ve been 7 times now, all tandem. Has anyone here gotten licensed to sky dive on their own? I was thinking about it……

@Megan3 you should totally do it if it’s on your “bucket” list, it’s an amazing experience!

@Zse I was thinking about going for the license, since I’ve gone at least 3 times tandem I am eligible. I want to be one of the front of the plane people that can jump on their own! :rofl: Something about being over this planet is so unbelievably freeing to me :heart:

I have only done it once so far. Did it in Alberta when i was 19 where i was coached for 8 hours on a military base. more bruised and sore from the 8 hour session. Was a solo jump of 6000’ and the best time of my life — was trying to overcome my fear of heights but that did not take away my fear. Not sure where the video and pictures are but i don’t think i look at peace :laughing:

i was the last to jump and for some reason the person in my ear piece thought i was an instructor and was giving me commands to do tricks and turns in the sky LOL - did not happen. My chute also opened late and had some tangling issues but luckily all worked out.

I have done an indoor one in Texas about 5 yrs ago and that was a good experience too but really do want to get back in a plane some day. Seeing these pics really brings on my itch to skydive again :wink:

Yes you should totally think about trying it again! I’m a 13,000 ft girl, free fall drop for 60 seconds, the canopy for maybe 10 mins, it’s my favorite way friend!! :heart:

Skydiving nope and probably never will.

But last year i managed to arrange for 8 guys from a youth group i volunteer fot to do a 3500 foot static line jump.

They loved it never seen such excited faces.

This yearvi have 16 spaces booked and could probably fill them three times over.
