I'm a first time ever skydiver as of 3 days ago. My wife, my brother-in-law and myself took the jump at 8500' with instructor assistance to stabilize and pull the cord.

OMFG!!!

My wife and I are now planning a trip to the Skydive Space Centre to make the 18,000' tandem our second skydive experience. From there we'd like to go on to get certified.

I love this website ... everything I could want to know all in one spot. Good to meet everyone and I hope I get to know you in the future.

Here's our jumps! :

Awesome! How much ground instruction did you get before jumping?

We received 6 hours total on-the-ground training. On the Friday night we trained for 2 hours on basic procedures and what to expect.

Day 2 was 4 hours where we covered emergency scenarios and did some simulation work. From there it was up and away! :)

Bob and Mary from Grand Bend Parachute were just great! I'm sure they are probably members here but I don't know it yet.
