Jump Twenty Six - The Skydive Podcast

And now, for something completely brief... well, not as brief as we originally planned, but certainly shorter than whatever's coming next! Yes, that's right, ladies and gentlemen, in this delightfully abbreviated—though unexpectedly not-so-abbreviated—episode, which runs a mere 60 minutes, give or take, we shall tantalize you with... not too much but just enough! Except, of course, the thrilling announcement that there will be a longer episode. How much longer, you ask? Well, we don't know! But it will certainly be longer than this one, which—despite my incessant rambling—is rather perfectly timed. So, sit back, relax, and prepare yourself... for the prelude to something... longer! In addition there's a written in confession from the UK. Please mail in YOUR confession to the email - best of all, do a voice recording and mail it in!

This episode's subject - FEAR!!   It's a long episode, so consider listening in segments... maybe.. just a thought.  It's a slightly different format than normal: hope you get something from it. A great interview with Lelo, the master rigger at Elsinore. Even with 12,000 jumps there's still fear - good discussion.

Rich Grimm, DZO of Tsunami Skydivers, Oceanside. And the new section, Skydiving Confessions.
