Hold the phones. Skydiving more than once? You read that right. While it may seem a big enough challenge to get you to jump from a “perfectly good airplane” for the first time, you might just surprise yourself. It\u2019s not uncommon that people will land from their first tandem skydive<\/a>\u2014the one they planned to do just to cross off their bucket list<\/a>\u2014and are ready and raring to go again!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you\u2019ve made a skydive, you\u2019ll realize just what the experience consists of, and more likely than not, you\u2019ll find yourself trying to figure out when you can make skydive number two!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are 4 reasons why you\u2019ll want to skydive again.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1) There\u2019s nowhere else this peaceful.<\/h3>\n\n\n

Sure, flinging yourself from a plane to hurl toward the ground at around 120 mph doesn\u2019t seem like the most “peaceful” of experiences, but you\u2019d be surprised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s so easy to get lost in the hustle and bustle of everyday life, so easy to find your mind consumed by a steady list of things to do. Of course, there\u2019s the bills to manage, the emails you need to check, and the job the boss wants done asap. How often do you find moments where you\u2019re completely focused on the here and now? We are willing to bet it\u2019s not very often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On a skydive, you\u2019re completely captivated; there\u2019s literally nothing else on your mind except what is happening in that very moment. And when the canopy opens, it\u2019s a most blissful feeling: sailing above the earth, playing with the clouds, taking everything in from an entirely new perspective. You\u2019ll long to come back and find this \u201chappy place\u201d again and again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) It\u2019s even better the second time around.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The first time you make a tandem skydive you don\u2019t know what to expect. On your second jump, you know what to anticipate; although, you know how it feels those first few seconds you leave the door of the plane, how it feels to accelerate until you reach terminal velocity, how appreciative you feel the moment the parachute opens, you might just find you\u2019re more nervous the second time around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The irony is you feel nervous because you know what to expect, but because you know what to expect, you can enjoy the experience all the more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3) Time flies when you\u2019re having fun.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The freefall portion of a skydive<\/a> is roughly just 60 seconds. With the amount of adrenaline pumping through you on your first jump, you might not notice how quickly everything goes, but, it\u2019s over in the blink of an eye. This is why so many return time and time again: to grab the bull by the horns and take the world in, in an entirely unique way, through those precious 60 second increments. This is also why so many choose to become certified skydivers<\/a>. The fun in receiving your skydiving license is that you can then share those 60 seconds with someone else!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4) You open the door to a whole new world.<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n

Being earthbound is grand and all, but there\u2019s something so captivating about exploring something new. Human beings are one of the few creatures on the planet that stretch beyond our physical restrictions: we weren\u2019t given wings to fly, but we do it anyway!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aside from the major perspective shift, the more you skydive, the more you see how much is out there. If you choose to pursue a skydiving license, a whole new sphere of experience opens up to you in the form of a world of knowledge to accrue and a wealth of skills to build.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
