when we finally got on the boat and into the water, parachute out, they figured out that there was something wrong with the hydraulics. This meant we had to go back to shore, change boots, and reset the chute. The 15 minute experience turned to be more like 2 hours. Other than that, it was great. I would advise wearing a long sleeve when you go up even if its hot and sunny - it's significantly colder up there
