Thank you so much skydive cross keys for the best memories. He did not mind for a second when I gave in my suggestions for how I wanted my video to be and he whole heartedly accepted it and gave his heart in. He knows very well how important capturing a moment like this means to all the people and he does his job perfectly. My videographer Greg Walsh, the fun part of the skydive, he is just the vibe, the ease of being around is just so great. He made it sure to keep my first dive excitement up and only up. I was so excited that I forgot all the technicalities at a point and was just dancing my way while the jump troubling him continuously, he without diluting my excitement or ruining my experience, very politely and without getting it into my notice maintained the balance and made my experience the best. Coming to my instructor Ryan Moran, the OG, really the best, couldnt have asked for anyone better. I went for a skydive with my friend, both were doing it for the very first time, but they made sure they make our first skydive the best. Skydive Crosskeys, hands down the best, the ease with which they make people feel comfortable, the ease with which they welcome all of us and their facilities and the people, just the best. Not everyone is comfortable jumping off a plane especially in winter, many come to experience it for the very first time, many of them are scared, nervous, numb before the dive, many hold together all their guts before making their decision to jump off 13000ft above the land, but to make all of this easy skydive cross keys made sure to go through perfect. He was an 'expert' skydiver 'The man who died while skydiving on Wednesday afternoon was an experienced skydiver,' Skydive Cross Keys said in a statement as reported by WPVI which also identified the skydiver.
