It was a different, more recent video and I figured since the last thread generated alot of interest, I'd post a new one. Similar to what people do when they post new mixes.
In the interests of this being a trance forum, I rescored the video with the first electronica track that had me hooked since age 5 or 6 (Vangelis - Will of the Wind) when I heard it.
I've come to realize I could never sell the sport of skydiving. Its something that will eventually find you and for everyone who has PMed me with questions on where and how they could learn more about getting into it, I did the best I can to provide links to point ya in the right direction.
Also...from a personal view, I encourage everyone whose into trance or pretty much any kind of electronic music to try at least a tandem. The emotions perceived during freefall and canopy ride are in many ways identical to those while listening to your favorite tracks/sets. That's really all I can say, if it wasn't worthwhile I wouldn't of made a single post about it.
All in all..to each their own. Enjoy the video, more to come.

Whoa the plane in the video looks nice!! when I was doing my first Tandem jump I ended up in a small plane that could only fit four people crampt in the back.
The jump looks spot on from my perspective and you could of gone all the way with out having them grab on again at the very end.
Congradulations on passing
Also awesome spot on timing with the track to you jumping out of the plane
Also I want to chill out with "Tree-Man." hahaha Gonna need those huge fires for the long winter night before next days jumps!! hehehe

Ah okay...sounds like Lexington uses a Cessna instead of a Twin Otter (what Skydive Houston uses) that can fit up to 22 jumpers per load.

Thanks man, yeah the jumpaster in gre caught me off gaurd, and being tensed up induced the turning. It happens, but they figured since I hovered stable and heading for that long that constitutes as a pass.

Had to recore it in Sonar. There was no way I could keep R Kelly - Ignition as the original track. I looped the beginning of the Vangelis one up until the exit and pretty much coincided the flutelike synth phrase with the launch. Scoring for video is actually alot of fun.

Haha..."Tree-Man". That guy is a crazy son of a bitch. He;s the kind of guy you'd want to have at a party to get everyone laughing their asses off from his insane *but true) stories...but someone I wouldnt trust with a chainsaw and a gallon of jet fuel after having a few beers.
*long story*
Apparently he seems be be an expert at freelfying and swoop landings so...who knows. He reminds me exactly like this actor tho: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001525/ except a tad more insane. Not kidding.
