I don't know much about the procedure and the releases, since I wasn't old enough to sign on my own when I did my only jump, but I can talk at great length about the sensations of freefall when making a jump (also about how it feels to have a broken neck, but we can just gloss over that *cough*). My experience isn't with tandem, but with jumpmasters who hang on to your jumpsuit until the ripcord is pulled and then let you land solo. Feel free to email me at zoerayne [at] vaportraces [dot] com if you want to know more.
I also know some about the terminology and tech, as my biological father was a professional parachute designer and lifelong skydiver.
