Kevin and Pete.....look who flew Skycoaster!

[Justin Jett]

This video was made during the summer of 1994. Tony gave me a chance to work at the local water park. It was my very first paying job. I just showed up and applied. Tony and the staff gave me a chance to live a dream, without ever meeting me before. The entire staff was very welcoming in 1994, and they still encourage me to be on the front line in a park.

If someone wanted to put me in one of those things, I'd think they wanted to kill me or something. You are a brave man, Skip!

[MomlvsGoofy]

WoW Skip I am impressed! You could never get me to do that. :scared1: I couldn't stop smiling when I saw the smile on your face while you were swinging back and forth. I can't believe it was your first time...:thumbsup2

[aspen37]

Wow I could never do that Skip! The smile you had on your face said it all. It made me smile too. I wish I was a brave as you.

[Dismom+two]

Wow Skip...you ROCK!! That was awesome...I hope you really enjoyed it!!

[SamSam]

Awesome Skip! I did one in Branson and I was TERRIFIED. It was a great Rush and I loved it, but I was soooooo scared.

Wow - that is awesome :thumbsup2

You're braver than i ever could be....::yes::

[Shasta]

Totally cool! I could have never done that. Do they offer just the harness up ride without being attached to the line or taken off the ground? That would be for me. :lmao:

I was thinking the EXACT same thing.

The "harnessing up" part would have been enough to kill me. I would have to leave the ground.

Watching them strap Skip in made the following run through my head...

"is this safe are they trained what kind of training do they have are the wires checked regularly how often is this inspected do these people make more than minimum wage do they hire just anyone to do this I lose concentration and I book Disney reservations but if I lose concentration no one plummets to the earth look at all of those connectios could there be a "weak link" oh skip dont go dont do this make them unhook the harmess?

And this was before you even went face down.

I'm sweating just thinking about it.

Skip, you are so totally cool! And brave!
And along with many others who have commented, it brought a smile to my face. I think I heard the guy ask if you were ready to fly and your response, "I guess so." and off you went!! WOW!
