First Skydiving Experience 2011

crazydaze (44)in #skydiving • 8 years ago

I just wanted to share a few photos from the first time I went skydiving. The first image is of me walking towards the plane. I was 25 at the time and didn't know what to expect.

I'm looking out of the plane waiting for the skydiving coach to tap my shoulder to prepare for the free fall.

Geronimo!

Had a rough landing as the coach wanted us to land on our butts to make it easier. Boy did it hurt! I wish we would have just walked and ran lol.

This is cool! Would like to try skydiving and it is off reach to me as I am living in Hong Kong. We need to travel to far far away for this. Now I get just many other reason that prevent me from trying. I do hope that I can try it after I retired, hope that I won't be too old for this at that time. :D
