2003 Testimonials

I just want to thank all the staff at AtmosphAir for the most incredible experience I have ever had.  I felt so alive. Even though this was my second jump, the first being 6 years ago, this was by far my first experience of a lifetime. You staff is friendly and exciting, upbeat and encouraging.  I totally trusted everyone.  The video you did for me reconfirmed my feeling of empowerment.  I'm still smiling! Thank you again for making me more aware of my surroundings and like I am alive all over again.  I had the time of my life!

I was also wanting to inquire about another date for jumping with some other people. I was thinking the second to last in October- what do I need to do to work through this process with you?

My experience in organizing the LOTC jump is wonderful - - NOW the Blackjack
Dealers who participated smile at me when I (Host on the floor) walk by...a
communication that reflects a permanent interaction which results in happier
associates.  The end result being that the Casino receives the results of
all the smiles on the floor!

The feed back they gave me was so positive and they are excited about
jumping again in the future.  They want to jump with 'Bo and Alex and Staff'
- they now understand why I wanted them to make the journey to Atmosphair so
that they too could experience your hospitality and expertise!

Thank you from each of the 8 jumpers and on a more personal note for
assisting me in knowing that I can fly like an eagle above the daily
challenges of life.

Bo and Alex,
   I just wanted to thank you so much for the awesome experience you have created in my life!  I think i am now defenately hooked on skydiving!  I can't wait until my next jump!  My skydiving experience could not have been any more perfect.  I loved the training program and I felt extremely confident that i was ready to jump.  Bo taught us everything we needed to know, in a fun yet serious way.  It was honestly the best time of my life.  I can't even explain in words how awesome everything was!  I loved the atmosphere down at the drop zone.  Everyone was so friendly at AtmoshphAir and you made me feel like family...i could hang out there every and any day.   I want you to know that if you EVER need any help at AtmoshphAir or if you are hiring....LET ME KNOW!!  I couldn't think of a better place to work part time.  ANYTHING you would need help with...just ask and I'll be there! (seriously!)  Thanks for being so fricken cool!

Bo & Alex,
I just wanted to thank you again for making my first jump so spectacular!  It was by far the best day of my 22 years & i can't wait to do it again.  I can't stop thinking about it & i have watched my video at least 8 times in the past 24 hours.  I knew skydiving would be an awesome experience, but i had no idea.  You have changed my life. 
Thank you again!!!

To the staff at AtmosphAir:

I wanted to thank you again for a memorable time at AtmosphAir last Saturday. I have never been somewhere for the first time and been made to feel so welcome. The entire staff really went out of their way to make my husband’s birthday jump special. The memories that you people created for us are too numerous for my keyboard to keep up with, so as a general statement ….. You guys are awesome!

I
just wanted to thank everyone at AtmosphAir for a wonderful Saturday afternoon. When I asked my friends a few months ago if anyone wanted to skydive with me they all looked at me as if I were crazy. "why would you want to do that?" was the general consensus. All I had to say in response was "Why not?"

I never imagined what a phenomenal experience it would be. Everyone at AtmosphAir was so helpful and Shelley and I really appreciated how you went out of your way to make sure we were not only comfortable, but having a great time as well. You were all so welcoming and I couldn't have asked for a better Tandem instructor than Charlie. I don't think I could possibly put into words how awesome my first skydive was. SO I will just say thank you and wish you all the best!

Oh, and can you believe that I almost skipped the video?! ? It was great! No regrets1!!

This past weekend I joined my son to celebrate his 31st birthday by agreeing to jump out of a perfectly good airplane with him. We researched several dive schools. Based on the way our questions were answered, the politeness by which we were treated and the overall general level of comfort created on the phone, we selected your school. Boy did we do the right thing. From the first greeting on Saturday to the final departure we knew that we were with the highly skilled professionals who know what to do, how to do it, how to teach it, and above all to have a really fun time.

This experience is the most fun thing I have ever done and I will do again and again. I can't wait to introduce the rest of my children to the fun of diving.

Thank you so very much for a wonderful experience.

 Hi Bo and Alex,

 I experienced my first tandem skydiving on Friday, August 3rd.  I just wanted to thank you for everything you did to make my skydiving experience excellent and memorable.  It was the best time I had all summer.  Bo and Alex, thank you so much for being such wonderful people and letting me have the opportunity to utilize your facility.  Alex, thank you for capturing the memorable moment on video.  My family, friends, and I have watched the video over 20 times already!!   Every time I watch the video I get goose pumps, because the memory of my experience comes rushing back. The feeling I experienced is astounding; everyone should take the chance, be scare, and experience it!!  This is a memory I will never forget the rest of my life.  People ask me if I would skydive again and I say, “In a heartbeat!”  

Thanks again and hope to see you soon!!    Karri

Dear Bo, Charlie and Alex,
I just wanted to thank you for making my parents 40th Anniversary so special. We still can't stop talking about how great the whole experience was. You guys were so wonderful to work with. Not only were you very professional, but you really seemed to care about making sure we had a great time. I especially appreciated Alex's concern for me since I had only flown for the first time three weeks before we jumped. She really put my mind at ease (until the door of the plane opened, then I got scared!) Anyway, thanks again for everything.

Shelley Greenwood
p.s.- See you next summer! We're coming back for seconds!

On behalf of all of us, we just wanted to thank everyone there again for giving us such a great experience this weekend. We could not have imagined how fun jumping would be, and we will definitely be back again. The videos were also great. We are very excited to show all our friends and family. Thanks again,

Cheryl, Shana, Mike, Lisa and Tracy

Bo and Alex,

I wanted to email you both to thank you for a great weekend! Sam, Mike, John, Cameron, Zan and I had a weekend that we will never forget and we believe that the two of you were a big reason for the success. We have no regrets about driving the 2.5 hours to get to AtmosphAir and we would encourage anyone we know to do the same. The experience wouldn't have been nearly as incredible if you both weren't involved. You were friendly, sincere, patient, enthusiastic, eager to show us a good time and always looking out for our well-being. We could not stop talking about how cool the two of you were. You helped us understand your passion for skydiving which helped calm our nerves and increase our excitement. The end result,  we had the ride of our lives.

Thanks again to you and your staff (especially Homebrew and Charlie).

Sincerely,
Scott

I had so much fun skydiving on Sunday. It is the best experience anyone can have. I told all of my friends to jump because they would love it. I liked the movie too. I'm also planning on making reservations some time soon. WOW! It was such a rush when that door opened, such a rush. I have already watched the movie about 20 times and even my teachers have showed it. Well I should go now so I can finish my school work.

I can't get that smile off my face. I'm annoying everyone at work...and I don't care!

Thank you so much for such an incredible experience! Alex, you asked everyone if they slept the night before...well, I couldn't sleep last night! I kept thinking of the breathtaking views, taste of the air, and the thrill of the accomplishment. Thank you for the great video, or should I say "proof"! People are asking me if I would do it again, my response ..."when do you want to go"! I get off work at 5! "They smile and back away, Isn't it scary?"

Isn't that the point of it! :)
