The very first seconds are tougher, after that everything goes as smooth as you’d possibly wish: you just sit there hanging admiring the view in an continuous zoom. As you could already guess the most exciting thing(at least for the beginners) is the first step: inside – outside an exercise of confidence in all the things your instructors told you and what you’ve previously seen on tv. But as they say.. you don’t have to be scared of the 1000m height, the last centimeter is the one that makes all the difference :) I can’t explain even now what really makes people get off out of a flying plane, but I have nevertheless jumped as the flight instructor gave me his sign: After a few seconds of twilight zone the chute opens, you can see the horizon and a lot of land below. Maximum state of consciousness. Although it happens pretty fast, the opening of the chute is not at all violent – in act nobody ever complained about any shock. The landing is equally smooth.

Anyway.. I took 3 jumps.. I have to admit, now I’m getting scared just looking of the pictures- although I’m positive that skydiving is a safe sport. Waiting anxiously for the next flying season
