My little 13,000ft adventure

[wrx_snobordr]

I went skydiving on sunday and it was amazing. If you have even the slighest desire to go I say run with it right onto a plane and do it. You will not regret it. I also got lucky and got to sit next to the pilot and fly the plane for about 10 mins. Its alot diff than turning a car ha ha.

Awesome. I wanted to go but i'm too fat to go tandem.

[03sLoMaX]

Yup... youll never be afraid of heights again ha ha

haha i would probably **** my pants...how long do you free fall for before you pull the chute? and after you pull it how long are you in the air for?

[Adamblitzer]

i hear it is amazing. how are your shoulders? i hear the chute can hurt them. i would love to go. where did you go and would you suggest them? price tag seems to be ~190ish

[R33P3R007]

freefall adventure. it is near 322 and 55 in NJ if i am correct. and 2 bills seems about right.

[wrx_snobordr]

haha i would probably **** my pants...how long do you free fall for before you pull the chute? and after you pull it how long are you in the air for?

You free fall for roughly a minute, it feels like 10 seconds though. You are under canopy for around 5 mins, it is one the greatest sights youll ever witness, i gaurntee it. You pull at 5k feet, its nice and cool, and you can see for miles. Then the instructor starts doing spins and stuff with the chute and you get back up to around 80mph, its insane.

Yeah, free fall adventures in cross keys, nj. To just jump is 185 but the vid is another 120 so figure 300. I would recommend getting the video, one, youonly have one first teo it makes the jump more fun. Without the camera guy you cant grab hands and spin around or have him put you into a spin.

[james_ls]

That looks friggin awesome.

That video came out really well to...minus the quality. Did YOU make that or did they??

[wrx_snobordr]

they made it. the quality is actually good, on the orginal version. I had to convert it a few times and each time the quality went down.

[markley02]

That looks a little gay with another dude strapped to your back

[Snoozie]

I want to do this so bad, but nobody wants to go with me :(

[Scapegoat]

skydiving > scuba diving
no sharks > sharks

no sharks FTW

I want to do this sometime. $185 isn't too bad to jump to your death

[TROLL]

sweet vid, they bust those things out so quick too with the editing and all. i went skydiving a few summers ago and it was great... we jumped out of a plane that had a hatch in the back so we kinda lined up and just marched slowly to the door. i was in the back and it was funny to watch the person in the front of the line just kinda disappear in the blink of an eye.

they told us to just keep walking until there was no ground beneath us anymore, not sure if it was the adrenaline or the fact that i had vin diesel strapped to my back but i didnt hesitate at all to walk right out of the back of the plane. i think another thing is that the ground is so far down that you can barely see it, almost like its not an immediate concern, so its not scary, haha.

i didnt get a vid of mine cause at the time i was pretty strapped financially but i remember it well... the freefall is incredible and like matt said, once they pull the shoot you've got a lot of time to look around and really take in exactly what you're doing.

under my arms were real sore afterwards, they they pull that shoot it slows you down in a hurry.

Criz is putting together a trip if you really want to go. Also me and my freinds should be going again within the next 30 days. If you really want to go let one of us know and we can let you know whats goin on.

Yeah bri, under my arms hurt a bit, but my legs took the brunt of the pain. that harness grips up on you pretty good when the chute opens up.

I'd never jump out of a perfectly good airplane.

I was there a few weeks ago for my first dive. It was nuts. Probably the craziest thing I can think of doing besides leaving the earth's atmosphere. I think after you get certified, jumps only cost ~$20. I could be wrong, though.

[wrx_snobordr]

yeah its around 20 is what they said.
