I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu

OK not really...but since every summer my dad takes us Rocky Mountain climbing this year for Christmas we decided to take him sky diving....Indoor Skydiving that is! We had the most incredible day out at Sky Venture south of Phoenix!

We had a very brief intro and learned the hand signals and basic body form...then we suited up and it was time to try our wings!

Emily wasn't sure this was a good idea...the fan was BIG and LOUD!
I went first...we each had two turns to fly, the videos below are from our second turn.
Emily was up next...she did so well!

Dad was flying high! Not too bad for an old guy!
To watch the videos full screen pop them out with the four arrows on the bottom right of the video...the flying up with the instructor at the end was totally amazing!!!!!!!!!
Christa....
Emily....
Dad...
Next year we are thinking about jumping from the real plane.
