Artisan 0 #1 March 19, 2013 Howdy. New to the sport, found these forums, thought I'd drop a line, etc. I called up a work buddy a few weeks ago. Asked him if he wanted to golfing on Saturday. In reponse, he asked me if I wanted to go skydiving Saturday and go golfing on Sunday. I said, "Okay!" I've been into all kinds of adrenaline-fueled sports: downhill skiiing, mountain biking, caving, climbing, paintball, etc... nothing compares to the adrenaline rush of freefall. Simply outstanding. My two jumps were both with Donny Leach of Skydive Spaceland, Houston. Outstanding dude, great instructor, very calming and informative. Couldn't have asked for a better instructor. My plan right now is to take Spaceland's "License in a week" course to get my A license sometime in the next month or so. I'm thrilled to join such a phenomenal community and activity. I look forward to many future jumps, hopefully with members of this forum. I'll keep you posted with my progress. Until then, crystalline skies.
