...was not my first tandem skydive but the best.
18,000 is worth it, if it is not your first jump. otherwise, 12,000 ft is enough cause you will get flashed anyway.
great team, they make you feel comfortable and safe.
Overall: Great Experience!
Hi Harrison,
Thanks for the review! You're right, it is so worth going to 18,000ft. I think even for your first jump the 18,000ft is perfect. The first maybe 30 seconds of free fall is like sensory overload with so many new and unfamiliar things happening and your adrenaline is pumping so that when you land and you are asked, 'Did you enjoy your jump?!!' you say, 'Yeh! It was amazing, I loved it! But it's a bit of a blur!' When you go to the higher altitudes, you get more free-fall so you have a chance to get over the initial rush and relax into the experience of free-falling. This gives you a chance to appreciate the sensation of free fall and also to take in the epic scenery that surrounds you during you skydive. (Your flight to altitude is longer too!) Obviously budget does come into it and any skydive here is going to be amazing, but I would always encourage everyone to go as high as they can as you did, kudos to you my friend! :)
Thanks again for the wicked review Harrison and thanks for jumping with us.
