Take the plunge!

[Lumps of cheese]

Soooo, just got back from a couple of weeks in sunny queensland which was awesome, much needed too i might add!
One of the things i did up there was skydive, and it was the best thing i've ever done!
Those who have been will know what i'm talking about, those who are sitting on the fence, well, here are some pics to entice you a little!
Anyone else who has done it, share your pics!

Just out of the plane, bad cottonmouth at this stage!





I love these shots, the views were just the best.









Many thanks to dazza at skydive ramblers at coolum, my wife and i had a ball. The beach landing was something else.

Looks awesome man, but why on earth would someone wear a Hat while Skydiving? I would think he would of lost it during the dive lol.

It was that and more!

Last pic shows he had it secured nicely with a chin strap, otherwise it wouldn't last long.

On the jump itself, we jumped at 14000 feet and was in freefall for about 45 seconds at 200 plus kays.

nice next time do it naked

Ah so he does to hahaha. Knew there had to be some kind of catch.

I found free fall (except the 1 HAHO I got do ) not as exciting as combat ready static line. 250/1000ft jumps are farkin scary, seeing the ground makes you not want to jump. That said, it is still fun!!!

cool pics
I've done the tandem skydive 3 times now at Byron. Did the 14,000ft all 3 times
I've only got video of the first jump - no stills

awesome, I also highly recommend it, even to those scared of heights. There's just no feeling of height at 14,000. Although must admit it still does feel a bit freaky when the door rolls open and you fall out head first lol

well done, fark that

[axemurderer101]

great fun everyone should do it atleast once, i went on my 21st in cairns. would of been more fun if i went with a group of friends though

To quote a movie line "Why would you jump out of a perfectly good airplane?"

We got to do a static line jump out of a C130J for a squadron birthday, it was pretty intense.

I'll be doing it again that's for sure.
My best mate has been wanting to do it for years so i'll be jumping with him, can't wait!

I done that for my 18th Best birthday present EVER, it was awesome. Shit scared of heights, shat myself the whole way up there but once in free fall it was wicked. Done mine down at Wollongong landing next to the beach! I only have a Vid no pics.

Will definitely do it again.

Funniest thing the guy said to me, 'Don't stress if you hit the ground so will i'

lol, yeah most of them have a good sense of humour
my girlfriend asked her tandem jumper how many jumps he had done.
He answered "what before or after the accident ?'' :P

The guy in the picture was a real dude, really put me at ease with everything.
