funks 1 #1 August 2, 2004 All bets were against her actually doing it. She is deathly afraid of flying and paralyzed by her fear of heights (tried to explain that has nothing to do with skydiving)....She came through like a trooper....I think she is closer to understanding this manic obsession we are all inflicted with... yep, my wife made her first tandem this weekend.... Katrina, you are awesome btw - thanks to Chris and Dave for making her first jump so awesome!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mnealtx 0 #4 August 2, 2004 Congrats to the Mrs!!! I'll be taking my wife for her first tandem in October, when I'm back home on vacation. She has had a severe fear of heights for most of her life. She has recently gotten to where heights do not cause the intense fear they used to and she's ready to try skydiving. Two more jump maniacs, coming up!!Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim.

funks 1 #5 August 2, 2004 Quote btw - thanks to Chris and Dave for making her first jump so awesome!! Actually just realized that the Chris i thanked isnt Chris but Kris Bagwell. Cruised some older threads and realized a ton of people know him. Guess so considering he has 13K+ jumps....All the older posts about him are right on target...he is an awesome instructor and totally put my wife at ease...thanks again Kris!!

Cajundude 0 #6 August 2, 2004 I'm trying to get my wife to do it but I think she is just blowing smoke up my ass. She did make me go bungee jumping though! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
