When a couple from church asked if I would like to join them on a sky diving adventure, the answer was, "um, YES!" There was no hesitation, just pure and utter joy.
We arrived at Skydive Las Vegas in the early morning. Sounds like a drag, but by the time we were done, the weather was getting hot and we were really thankful for such an early start. All of the employees were very helpful, attentive, and kept an eye out for safety. We watched a training video and also practiced the positions before being harnessed up and packed in the plane. It was very helpful to see that safety was a very important priority and that the safer one was the more fun they were going to have.
The person I jumped out tandem with was extremely professional and had a really fun personality! He did a really great job of keeping anxiety levels low and having fun on the jump. He mentioned that they won't get rich sky diving but that it is one of the jobs you do because it is that awesome. In other words, make sure you bring extra money to tip with--they definitely deserve it!
Overall, great experience! If my ears didn't pop so much I would be wanting to jump every day! Thanks Skydive Las Vegas for the rush!
