Testimonials:
“I appreciate all your help with my canopy flight. My weekend at work was a lot more fun thanks to you allowing me to fly the Katana and talking about swooping. I’m glad I could finally clear up a lot of ‘myths’ that I’ve been hearing when it comes to that. You PD guys rock and, once again, thanks for everything!”
“Thanks so much for an awesome class at Skydive Orange.”
“Anyone that begins skydiving does so because they feel a connection with the sport and a passion to feel the thrill of exiting an aircraft at whatever altitude. Far too often, over time, the passion may wane and other interests take over. What is so refreshing about what you and Scott bring is an energy that invigorates learning. You don’t have to say anything for the energy to be felt, it’s genuine and it makes a huge difference. Many of my jumpers have expressed thanks to me for bringing you guys to the dz….a compliment for sure as you all make me look good! Performance Designs and Fastrax are lucky to have you as your attitude, skill under a canopy and professionalism makes you an ideal spokesman for both the product you represent and the sport of skydiving. I enjoy it when you guys are here and look forward to when you guys return.”
