]]> In honor of the late Ted Strong (D-16), owner of Strong Parachutes and one of the sport’s giant figures, a memorial skydive was done over Skydive DeLand during the 2012 Skydive Expo in Florida. There are too many stories to write about the legend that is Ted Strong, but he will forever be missed and never forgotten. Blue skies brother. RIP.

]]> Nick Vujicic is a true inspiration — not only because he’s a motivational speaker, but because of his story. Born without limbs due to the rare Tetra-amelia disorder, life hasn’t been easy for Nick. But this video is proof that he’s living a life of dreaming big and not giving up. Skydiving has been on Nick’s bucket list for a while, so the team at United Parachute Technologies (UPT) built a custom harness for Nick’s first tandem skydive at Skydive DeLand in Florida. What’s next Nick… a tandem BASE jump?

Good stuff Robi… way to get stable on your own; at least you got some head-down action as a student!
