An incredible experience - it's more scary thinking bout jumping when you're on the ground before you take off, than it is when you're actually in the air! the instructors were very reassuring and i felt in very safe hands. thank you skydive wanaka :-)
Thanks Alhena - and you are totally right - the anticipation is much more scary that the actual jump itself!!!
It's much more fun than it is scary out there - but it's really hard to convince someone of this until they've experienced it for themselves!!
Thank you for your lovely review and for choosing to do your skydive with us here in Wanaka

This is my second skydive and it was an amazing experience.
Eugen my instructor was class, very amusing & I felt very safe with him. At 15,000 feet the views were spectacular. The whole experience was very professional at all levels, from the moment I walked in the door, to the moment I left. A great way to celebrate my 60th Birthday. Thank you so much. I will be back!
Hi Anne,
What a way to celebrate your 60th!!! Awesome!!
Thank you for choosing us for your big day - and great to hear how much you enjoyed it!
We look forward to seeing you back here for your third skydive :-)
Thanks again Anne - from the crew at Skydive Lake Wanaka

Thank you Sena,
Isn't it amazing how long the experience stays with you, and still makes you smile, when you think about the fact that you jumped out of a perfectly good plane... 3 months ago!!! Awesome!!
We hope you enjoyed the rest of your travels here in NZ, and thank you for posting a review - you've summed it up nicely -- it is just the best experience ! Thank you for choosing us !

Motion sickness or not - they made falling out of a plane seem easy.
No doubt I was nervous leaning over the edge of the doorway with
12,000ft of air below me, but it all disappeared in an instant when we
backflipped and, there it was, freefall. Wow. My view on life has been
changed for ever. A bow to Grant, my instructor: knowing that I'm
bound to get motion sickness, I always do, he took it easy on turns
and chatted the whole way down, pointing out all the mountains
(Aspiring, Cook) and local views (Wanaka). Absolutely nothing to
complain about, 10 out of 10.
Thanks so much for your review - it's always awesome to have fellow kiwi's come on out and see how incredible our country is from 12,000 Feet! Great to hear that the views and Grants easy turns took your mind off possible motion sickness :-) Thank you for choosing to jump with us, and I hope your new view on life keeps that freefall smile happening whenever you remember your experience with us.
