To everyone at AtmosphAir,

Thank you so much for the wonderful experience this past Saturday! I jumped for my second time with Bill. He made me feel so comfortable and we had the best time. It was a perfect day. We floated through a huge cloud and that was the most amazing thing. Everyone there has a great attitude and I recommend this place to all of my friends. I show my video to everyone and they love it.   This is the coolest place and I can't wait to come back.
Once again, Thank You

Hi! This is Katy Walton. I came skydiving a little over a week ago with my dad. I don't know how you handle customer thanks and comments, but I wanted to say thanks again for such a great experience. I had such a wonderful time I posted about it on my webjournal. I don't know if you'd want to see it, but it's there, perhaps expressing my gratitude just a little more. www.kurlyqs.bravejournal.com.

I Now Know Why the Birds Sing

Today, I tasted of freedom and flight as I soared the azure skies above. My dad and I went skydiving today at AtmosphAir Skydiving in Ft. Atkinson. It was the most exhilirating experience of my entire life, and I wonder if anything else will, or could, ever rival it! As we climbed twenty minutes into the air (to an altitude of 10,000 feet), I wavered between incredible excitement and extreme fear. As the door of the plane opened, and I viewed the emerald landscape below, the fear took over. But being strapped to an incredible instructor, and feeling the adrenaline pulsing through my  veins, the fear gave way and we rolled out the cockpit door. The initial freefall was the most terrifying feeling, but as soon as you realized where you were, it was wonderful. To be able to relax at 8,000 feet is amazing! And then as the parachute opened, and we just floated above the world below. I will definitely do it again, and again, and recommend it to anyone I can. It was so amazing and wonderful, and yet these words do so little to explain it. It was utterly indescribable! However, Leonardo DaVinci once made a quote, and I think it does a pretty good job. I couldn't have said it better.

When once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return.
 

Thanks! You guys were great! (Oh, by the way, I told some friends about my experience, and they were so interested, they set up their own jumps for mid-August!) :)   Thank you!! Katy

 

I would just like to say thank you for such a wonderful time last weekend, July 30, 2006.  My boyfriend and I went skydiving for our 1-year anniversary, and boy was it an amazing, life-changing experience!!  The entire staff was very friendly and helpful, and Bo even took 20 minutes of his time to talk skydiving with my family that came to watch us.  Charlie and the videographers were also amazing, and our DVD’s have already been watched by many family and friends who now want to take the dive. We can’t wait to book our next appointment, I think we’re hooked!  Thank you again for such great memories!!!

 Sincerely,
Erin Lovinus and Danny Konecy

 

A sincere "Thank You" to Bo for convincing me to purchase the DVD of my first skydiving experience.  Initially, I thought dropping $80 on a DVD I'd watch "once or twice" was a huge waste of money.  But Bo talked some sense into me and even offered to buy the DVD back from me if I was unhappy with the purchase.  Thank God for him because I am ridiculously happy that I caught this experience on video!  Money well spent!  Not only do my friends and family want to watch it, but it helps me re-live the experience all over again.  Ken did a fantastic job filming/editing it and I'm so pleased with the outcome!   Also a huge "Thank You" to all of the staff at AtmosphAir for making a terrifying experience an enjoyable one - especially my tandem instructor, Bill.  Everyone is very professional, yet comforting and fun.  And Rob is the greatest pilot there ever was.  ;)   I've recommended AtmosphAir to everyone I know and I can't wait to return there myself.   Kristi Raemisch Madison, WI

 


Thanks for making my first skydive so AWESOME!  The attached photo was without my jumpsuit but you can put it in your portfolio under "successfully enrolled first timers".

We will all be down there again before too long to jump again.

p.s. My video is great too!                                                             

Thanks again,

Hey Crew ~
I just wanted to let you know that we all had a fabulous time with our dives yesterday.  Thanks for giving us such a memorable experience - I couldn't imagine a better way to celebrate our marriage -- with all our friends and such open and joyful people as you all.  You really made for an awesome day.  I hope you all had a positive experience with our group as well. 
Well, I just wanted to tell Bo and all of you a big "THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU !!!" You got us all hooked!  And, hopefully we can all dive together again someday.
Much love and take care,
Rachelle and Jim Macur (the newlyweds)
and the Diamondway Buddhists (DWB)

Hey Bill, Ken, Howy, Bo, the pilot-guy, and the manifest lady (Angela?)!   Thank you, thank you, thank you again for such an amazing, life-altering, eye-opening skydive last Saturday!!  This was my second jump (both with Atmosphair) and they just keep getting better.  I didn't even cling to the plane for dear life this time.  I owe much of my confidence to you guys---you do an impeccable job of keeping your clients safe while showing them the beauty of flight.  I wouldn't jump with anyone else.   "Do the thing you think you cannot do."  -Eleanor Roosevelt   Erika Wagner Delavan, WI

 

 

 

I just wanted to thank everyone again for making my first jump such an AMAZING experience!  The entire staff was great!  There are not enough words to describe all of the EXCITEMENT and the rush you feel during each and every stage of the jump. There is NOTHING even remotely close in my life thus far that comes to topping the experience I had today. Plus, I got to do it all with my mom! 
Thank You for EVERYTHING once again,
One of the newest members of your skydiving family, Amy Thurk

 

All I can say is WOW!  What an amazing adventure it was for me to taste flight.  I want to thank all the staff at AtmosphAIR for keeping me safe, comfortable, and mostly valuable.  Everything is so organized and I loved it how as I was about to free fall Howy was able to relate in my ear exactly what to do next.  It made me feel like I could totally depend on him.  I very much appreciate my DVD that Danielle made me.  I felt like I did not thank you all enough while I was there.  That is why I plan to come back with friends and family and thank you and do it all again.  When it is your first time your in so much shock that you even doing it that you feel like your head is in the clouds, no pun intended.   Just know that all that you do is appreciated and your responsible for making people's dreams come true, what a great reward!

Forever grateful,
Christal Korfhage  May 20th, 2006

 

    I just wanted to take the time to let you know that our experience with your staff on Saturday 4/22/06 was the best.  Everyone was friendly and very helpful and reassuring to me, (who remained on the ground) as your staff took my husband, daughter and sister in law, and a close family friend up.  Igor, Bo and Bill were great, as was everyone else.  Guess they basically had almost all of my immediate family up in that plane, and brought them back to me SAFELY.  They all had a BLAST and it was the best day for all of us.  With your staff's help I was able to make my husband's dream of skydiving come true. Thank You and I'm sure we will see you in the future. Anne Bass

Howy, Paul and Bo are some great guys.  Charlie is alright too.  It is the experience of a lifetime.  I can not praise this organization enough.  Just thinking about my experiences at Atmosphair puts a smile on my face.  My first skydive (and second of two thus far) was with these people in the fall of '05.  This is the first skydive everyone needs.  Atmosphair is a skydiving school, NOT a club which translates into safe, successful and extremely worth every penny good times.  I plan to get certified this coming summer through Atmosphair.  As I mentioned earlier, the staff is incredible which makes the experience.  I spoke with Bo for a while and with the others in the school group I was with from UWM.  Instead of having distractions such as arcade games and the like social bonds, conversations, questions/answers and philosophies are shared.  I'm not talking Descartes here either, I'm talking way of life stuff.  The Atmosphair family is perhaps the most happy, content and charismatic bunch I have ever been around.  I want a part of that.      

 

Hi,

was there last Saturday and want to thank everyone at AtmosphAir for an incredible experience.  EVERYTHING about it exceeded my expectations!  I have watched and shown my video no less than a dozen times already.  Please let Ken know he did a fabulous job and gave me a great memory of my first dive - but hopefully not the last!  My only regret is that I waited until the end of the season. Thanks again, Meg Groves, MSW
