Well, since I was 10 years I wanted to go skydiving, but my mom always said that it’s too dangerous, that it’s a sport for men.
But I didn’t give up.
When I turned 16 years I went to the drop zone and asked what to do to join the skydiving. They told me that I must have notarized parental consent and to have complete medical tests. So I went to my parents and I asked my consent legalized and after a few kindly asking I got what I wanted. I went and I did the medicals tests, my parents gave me the consent legalized and I joined the skydiving.
For months I had theory lessons and physical training, and then were given a few tests, because there were only 25 places available. There were very many guys, and only 5 girls. I trained hard and learned, and when I saw the test results I couldn’t believe it. I managed to get among the top 5, which I enjoyed enormously. After my first jump, I love skydiving.
Now I have 70 jumps, I entered the city group and now I try to make my way to the national group. And soon will also attend my first competition. I hope I will win. This is my story, I hope it will inspire.
