A Tandem Skydive is where a student skydiver is connected to a harness attached to a tandem instructor. The instructor guides the student through the whole jump from exit through free fall, piloting the canopy and landing. The student will require instruction before making a tandem jump with the instructor. You have to be 12 years or older to skydive and will require written parental consent up until 18years of age.

Your weight must not exceed 90kgs for a tandem skydive.  If you exceed 90kgs, please click here for a Solo jump.

A Solo Standard Freefall jump is where the parachute is opened automatically after a short free fall decent of  between 3-6 seconds.

It is a method of skydiving where the student exits the aircraft solo at 3,500ft in an ‘arching’ position. The student will experience a 3-6 second  free fall and this is enough time to experience the air pressure so the student becomes aware of his or her own body position until the full opening of the canopy . The main canopy is automatically activated via the static line.

Once the parachute has opened you will have  a canopy ride of approximately 5minutes during which time you will have to physically steer and control your own parachute safely back to earth. You will be guided down by radio commands given by an instructor who is on the ground and who will be watching you until you land.

You will eventually, after four more training jumps of pulling a dummy ripcord,  jump at higher altitudes to experience longer solo free falls under the direct supervision of an instructor and, of course, pull your own ripcord at your selected opening height.

Maximum weight for a Solo Standard Freefall skydive is 135kgs.

Your Accelerated Freefall jump will consist of two jumps which is included in the cost

• 1x Static-Line Jump (3,500ft)
• 1x AFF Jump (10,000ft)

After the completion of your static-Line jump, you will be trained by your instructor on all concepts of the Accelerated Freefall jump. Body positioning, exiting from the aircraft, practice ripcord pulls, maintaining height awareness and much more.

Your AFF jump will be from 10,000ft with two instructors holding onto you, one each side during the freefall until your canopy opens. During the freefall you will be flying your own body maintaing a stable body position, you will be constantly checking your altimeter and practice ripcord pulls. After 50 seconds of pure freefall you will pull your own ripcord at 4,000ft.

After your canopy deploys, both instructors will fly away from you and deploy their own parachutes. Once under canopy you will have approximately 5minutes to familiarise yourself with the parachute as you will be steering your own canopy back to earth with the assistance of radio guidance from the ground.

Maximum weight for an Accelerated Freefall (AFF) jump is 115kgs.
