About Me

I began jumping in the 70’s. Did some test jumping for awhile and accuracy competition as my favorite. Began my free fall camera career under Rande Deluca tutelage and continued for many years. I took a break from sport skydiving for almost 10 years for military service deployments and commitmentsbotherwise I’d have more jumps. Once I returned to the sport I worked my way to the position as S&TA at Skydive Airtight in Skiatook OK. I’ve moved since then and while I fondly remain in contact with Airtight members I call home there and Glider Sports and Skydive KC. I now simply enjoy the sport and no longer compete nor provide instruction, with perhaps some good recommendations nowband then only. I enjoy skydiving with my son and a few close friends, otherwise a solo “H&P” is sufficient for me. As a certified Jump Master and Instructor, yes JM preceded Coach ratings so I was before such current ratings like coach, and did obtain a Pro rating but again, I’m semi retired now.
