Skydiving Michigan

This was my first skydive and it was an incredible experience. It was some of the most fun I have ever had, a truly amazing adrenaline rush. I can’t thank the team at Skydive Tecumseh enough, they were really cool, professional, and fun. When we got to the airfield we were able to watch the plane-load ahead of us depart and all the jumpers land safely while we filled out our safety waivers. After that we took a short safety course then suited up in our gear. Once in the airplane it was a short 15 minute ride to our jumping altitude of 14,000 ft. A short walk to the rear of the plane was all that was left before jumping out. Free fall lasted for roughly 40 seconds or so before our canopy was deployed. Once the shoot was open it was a short 5-6 min ride to the bottom. I was pleasantly surprised too feel first hand how easy it is to steer your parachute. We came into the drop zone fast and made a super smooth landing. I could not help but smile from ear to ear, what an amazing experience that I will never forget. And yes, I am ready to go again.

I would seriously recommend Skydive Tecumseh to anyone who wants to experience skydiving.
