“I chose to start working at SDO because I wanted to give back to the sport and support the DZ I love. Sharing the sport I cherish with new skydivers for their very first time and seeing them grow to become licensed and successful themselves is an amazing feeling and I really wanted to be a part of that!” – Blake Long
