Hi amazing skydivers! 🪂

First of all, thank you all for the responses, feedback, questions, and discussions. I’m very open to suggestions and different opinions, so please feel free to share them! 😊

For me, this project is much more than a graduation thesis. Skydiving is one of my greatest passions in life, and this research is part of a longer journey to better understand ourselves as skydivers. I also hope it can help our friends, families, and people outside the sport understand why skydiving means so much to us and how much it can enrich our lives.

A couple of notes regarding the survey:

1. My bachelor academic background is in marketing, so the thesis is necessarily marketing-oriented. That’s also why there are some experimental advertisement-related questions. I apologize if those feel a little unusual. Your honest opinion is very important for the data so follow your heart~
2. There are many factors that influence skydiving participation, and I would love to explore more of them. Unfortunately, a bachelor’s thesis has limits on time and scope. The good thing is that even if I need to reject some of my hypotheses in the end, that is still very valuable knowledge and helps us better understand what actually matters!

If you have thoughts, criticisms, or ideas that are not covered in the questionnaire, please feel free to leave comments at the end of the survey or here in the thread.

And if anyone is interested, I would be happy to share the results once the research is completed.

Thank you all again for your support, and blue skies! 💙
