Just about 25 years ago, I decided I wanted to Skydive. I called my younger brother Clint and he was up for it so out we went to Skydive Arizona in the town of Eloy. We took the initial course and we were hooked!! We jumped together the whole summer until Clint went to Japan to serve a mission for two years. I continued jumping for awhile after that but eventually, too many other (more important) things took over and skydiving got shelved. Fast forward to a few months ago, I am reintroduced to the sport by Mike Lalley, a local AFF instructor and all around good guy here in Wisconsin. I went through a complete AFF ground school and then did a few AFF jumps before they signed me off to jump again. I forgot how much fun it is to freefall and canopy fly!! The more amazing thing is this time I got my wife Darla to do it too!! Although I am fairly certain it was the very good looking Australian instructor Jarad who actually convinced her to do it. Check out the photos and video...
This photo is of me jumping with roller blades on in the early 1990's
Darla with her Jump instructor--woohoo!!
