Following on from Daves, pic for Floss about wind in your hair.
I did this for 17 years and absolutely loved it. I still have all the equipment and keep talking about starting up again this year.
It certainly got the relative wind through everything 😀

Haha I've never heard it said we looked like stormtroopers PP but I can see why you'd say that 😀

How high up are you there Bob ? And whats keeping you up in the air without your parachute open ? ( Sorry if that's a daft question ) xxx

Generally we used to jump from around 13,000ft, it's hard to say the exact height in the picture as you can't see the ground for the cloud.
It's not a daft question, but nothing is keeping us up, in reality we are all falling at around 120 mph and so is the cameralady who took the pic 😀

That looks amazing! An uncle of mine used to skydive before having kids and he took me to one of the air tunnels, that felt amazing- can't imagine doing the real thing though!

Hi,
I did love a bit of wind tunnel action, I was talking recently with a few old skydiving mates about booking a session.
