A Tandem Skydive is the ULTIMATE introduction to the sport of skydiving, whether your goal is to become a certified jumper or you just want to give it a try.

We have been doing tandem jumps with students for over 20 years now, and this skydiving method has a better safety record (by far) than any other.

"EXPERIENCE WHY SKYDIVING HAS BECOME THE EXTREME SPORT OF CHOICE!"

THIS IS WHAT YOU'RE IN FOR.....
After only one hour of training, you and your instructor, (and videographer, if you'd like your jump videotaped) will climb aboard one of our fast airplanes, and ascend to 12,500' (that's over 2 miles high!)
The harness you wear is directly connected to the Tandem Parachute System. You and your instructor will exit the airplane and accelerate to 120MPH, freefalling for 60 seconds. Since you are in front of your instructor, you will have the sensation of being in freefall by yourself.
It is hard to describe the sensation of freefall because its one of the most exhilarating experiences that a human can have. We always tell our students, "Build up your expectations as high as you can, this will top them!" Freefall is where it's at!
Your parachute will open at 5,000' and you begin a 6 minute parachute ride back to the landing area for a soft landing. During your parachute descent, you will be doing the steering and performing all kinds of turns, spirals, stalls, parachute loops, and flares. But don't worry, you can't do anything wrong because you are with an instructor who will guide you through all these maneuvers. For those of you who prefer to relax and view the scenery, your instructor can do all the steering.
