A big thank you to Peter and JT! They were our instructors for the 20,000 ft sky dive and helped make the whole experience incredible. JT was extremely calming, and helped put my partner at ease as she was quite excited on the ground before leaving. She keeps telling me she was excited to be strapped to such a handsome man, and can't stop talking about JT - the effect on our relationship was worth the jump from 20,000 feet, but all joking aside, I very much appreciated how calm out instructors were. The jump from 20,000 feet is incredible. You get to see your plane-mates jump out well before you.. We were the only two jumpers left on the plane by the time is was our turn. Incredibly sensational. The 20K jump gives plenty of fall time before the chute is pulled! The views of the glacier are once-in-a-lifetime especially if the chute doesn't open. We got the handicam video/photos and they came out amazing. My partner's video was hilarious, because she's such an emotive person. Totally worth the extra. One thing my partner and I both felt was that our hat might get pulled off. And if you're reading this JT, we would have paid extra to wear a helmet like our instructors, to make it easier to breath on the way down! Be aware that the weather is unpredictable. The previous day's jumps had to be cancelled due to cloud coverage, but we had fantastic sunny weather for our morning jump! We lucked out.
Epic adventure ( for a middle aged duck lol)

People were great, very friendly and willing to answer any questions. They made you feel safe and secured properly to the 4 points on harness. The veins were amazing and the adventure was epic
