From Tandem to Tunnel: Zane Jackson's Skydiving Story
Zane Jackson, a prominent figure at Skydive Arizona, has built a life around skydiving. His story is one of passion, adventure, and commitment, showcasing the local kid who found his calling in the skies above Eloy.
Growing up near Skydive Arizona, Zane was unaware of its existence. It wasn't until later that he discovered the skydiving center and became captivated. His initial foray into skydiving began with ground school, but a requirement for a tandem jump marked his first taste of freefall.
Zane quickly made a name for himself at Skydive Arizona, serving as a tandem videographer, instructor, and active participant in the dropzone's activities. His role as an instructor, cameraman, and motivator extends beyond the confines of the dropzone, as he is known for reminding others that joy is not just captured, but lived.
One of Zane's most memorable experiences was the "Mr. Bill" jump, a daring feat where he held onto someone's harness, exited the plane together, and deployed their parachute, sharing a canopy with his friend during the descent. The exhilaration of this experience, filled with weightless uncertainty and raw joy, has left a lasting impression on Zane.
Despite the adrenaline-pumping nature of his profession, Zane is not one to rest on his laurels. He is currently aiming to fun jump more frequently, pushing the boundaries of his skills and experience. His passion for skydiving is deeply personal, viewing it as an integral part of his life, not just a sport or hobby.
In the future, Zane sees himself skydiving for several more decades. This unwavering commitment to his passion is a testament to the impact skydiving has had on his life. The Skydive Arizona Team aims to share such stories, one jumper at a time, to share the soul of Skydive Arizona.
Zane's story is just one of many written in the skies above Eloy, each one a testament to the transformative power of skydiving. For more in-depth insights into Zane's journey, visit the official Skydive Arizona blog and articles.
