Hi Shana, Skydiving sounds great. I did it once in Newzealand and it was awesome.

Where would be a location? Thanks.

as of right now, there are two options:

(1) Sportations in Phila, PA (my preference, but it's slightly more expensive. $239.99, plus $109.99 for video)

(2) Skydive Jersey Shore in Belmar, NJ (prices quoted)

I'm going skydiving sometime this summer, though I may be trying to coordinate the experience with my friends nuptials. Keep me in the loop.

Hi guys. I recently (a few months ago) went sky diving for the first time. Let me be upfront here - I am a scaredy cat and terrified of moving too fast and heights. I am now officially IN LOVE with sky diving and REALLY want to go back and get certified.

I was perfectly fine nerves wise up until that door opened. Wind is LOUD. And putting your foot on that little step before you dive out? That wind is STRONG. Way stronger than I'd expect.

But after the jump? For the next few nights you'll close your eyes in bed and feel like you're falling still. You'll look up at the sky for a week or two, smile, and can't help but picture falling through that 93 million miles of incredible view.

So yeah, I might be down for going.

PS - I went to Skydive Jersey Shore. Was less than impressed with their service. I want to try freefall adventures next.

Ah, found it!

Here's me sky diving this summer @ Skydive Jersey Shore.

I grabbed my face cause my glasses were about to fly the hell off, and the guy who went before us lost a shoe so I was mindful of that. I could still see though :-)

I went to freefall adventures a few years ago and they very good. They have a really good safety record. They just have really long wait times before going up. Loved the experience and would definitely up for doing it again.
