Lonnie was my guide and tandem skydiving instructor. He welcomed questions about skydiving and out the few apprehensions I had to rest. The experience took a few hours due to the cloudy weather, but the jump itself went by too quickly. The TV monitor in the hangar listed the jump line ups and weather updates, which was helpful for staying informed while on a weather hold.
With Lonnie's excellent guidance, I was able to understand exactly what I needed to do before and during the jump. He even let me steer a couple of turns before landing! All in all, skydiving was awesome and Lonnie really helped to enhance the experience for me.
Emily took some amazing photos and a video that really captured the true experience. She updated me when the video footage was being edited and then a DVD player and TV was available to review the final video before leaving the location.
I hope that I will skydive many more times in the future (at Start Skydiving!), but if I don't, I will have have these great memories thanks to Lonnie and Emily. Thank you both!! You were amazing!
