I assume it will be a tandem jump? I have 14 jumps. The first 5 were static line, the next 5 were hop and pops and the last 4 were free fall but its been a while and I miss it. Its ok to scream. Lol. Have fun

One thing you will notice is that there will be no sensation of falling, and the second is that the earth is coming up to you. Its an incredible experience.

I've jumped 3 times! Most exhilarating experience on my life! Amazing. Enjoy it.
The high lasts for months. And when the door opens & you're right next to it.....!!!!

Well, I did it, and live to tell the tale
 The whole thing was just so surreal I'm not even sure what to make of it now. Feels like it didn't even happen haha

I'd never do that. I'm deathly afraid of heights. Even going up a small hill makes me feel anxious.
