You know that feeling when you’re sledding down a hill and the cold winter wind whips your face? You can’t feel your cheeks, and you start to wonder whether you’re developing frostbite?
Multiply that feeling by a thousand and you have a winter skydive in a cold-weather climate.
Icy air in negative temperatures envelop your body; your eyeballs feel like they’re going to freeze; and your hands are so numb you can barely control the canopy. Winter skydiving just isn’t fun, unless you do it in a tropical paradise.
If traveling to Hawaii or New Zealand isn’t quite in the picture, consider these other options instead.
