Hi, I’m Jeromy; A father, web developer, and skydiver in Jackson, Michigan. Since my first jump on my 29th birthday, I have been hooked on freefall.  After that first jump, I spent the next three months working to get my A license, which I recieved on my 25th jump on September 15, 2007.  I ended the 2007 season with 39 skydives.

The 2008 season had a late start for me due to inhospitable weather, but from May til October I was able to get 97 skydives.  During that season I found my new home dropzone, Skydive Tecumseh.  I also got my water traing,  my B license, and was able to do my first night jump!  I ended the 2008 season with a total of 136 skydives.

2009 started with a frozen jump on New Years Day, then a trip to a skydive tunnel, a Hot Air Balloon jump, my C license and Coach rating, a bAse jump, a Helicopter jump, and a road trip for more frozen jumps! I focused on improving my RW skills on large 8 to 16 way dives. By the end of the year I racked up 218 jumps for 354 total skydives!

The 2010 season has just begun and all signs point to another great year!
