OUR SKYDIVERS LANDING ON THE BEACH
By Kim Pilic

Wow, touch down from the sky on beautiful Kirra Beach! These daring tandem skydivers leapt from their light aircraft at twelve thousand feet, before coming to land on the gorgeous white sandy beach. Ten of the fourteen thrill-seeking skydivers just happened to be legally blind. Each one of them landed with smiling faces, unless I mistook some expressions that were really a grimace, (LOL). They all raised their legs and feet in preparation for the touch-down, with most of them landing on their backsides. Some individuals created a stream of sand as their feet, legs and backsides skimmed the sand's surface. Wow, this was a spectacular sight to behold. Even the spectators on the ground were pumped with excitement at their graceful yet dynamic landings. Well done all - safe landings and airborne mission accomplished!

Forward Steps Mobility was pleased to have created a unique and extreme sensory experience for all of the skydiving participants. We relish the opportunity to create fun and interesting recreational group activities within the wider community; it's one of our service fortes!
