Tandem: The Beginnings of an Industry that Made Human Flight Accessible to the Average Person - Hardcover

by Jen Linn Lallo Sharp (Author), Bill Morrissey (Contribution by)

Three men's lives intertwined over the span of a quarter century, ripening circumstances for something monumental. The high-achieving inventor, a loyal right-hand man, and a mischievous fisherman gave physical form to the ageless concept of sharing your joys with others. The collective adventures of these three men brought Tandem Skydiving to reality for the first time.

Tandem was not invented.

It is impossible to invent an innate human desire.

Tandem was instead a concept uncovered, slowly at first,

then through a series of events among three unlikely friends,

propelled into the industry we enjoy today.

This is the story of how it began.
