SkyDive

My long lasting wish to skydive was fullfilled this past weekend. I did a tandem skydive at “Sky Dive Chicago“. Initially I was a bit nervous but howver, once I got over it and got into the dive suite it was all thrill and fun. The free fall was the most exiting and fun part of the dive. We flew to around 13000ft on a small plane which carried around 15 people and jumped form there. We were free falling till around 5500ft at which point I had to pull the chute. Once the chute is out it literally pulls you up with a force(If you have been on one of those roller coaster rides, that’s feeling I had :-)

Once we started gliding down I was able to control the chute and do some stunts. Finally the landing was smooth.
