No parachuting experience needed.

The tandem skydive is the simplest way to introduce anyone to the exhilarating sensation of freefall. A tandem also gives you the opportunity to see why we (skydivers) continually jump out of perfectly good aeroplanes!!

The greatest advantage of tandem skydiving is that you get to sit back and enjoy the moment with minimal training (approx 20 minutes).

Our fully qualified instructors will brief you on everything you need to know to make your jump a safe and fun experience. Topics covered include gearing up, exiting the aircraft, body position during freefall and landing.

The tandem instructor wears a rig that is specifically designed to carry two people. You will be wearing your own harness that is attached to the tandem master via four anchor points. We use the latest passenger harness developed for safety and specifically comfort, both in the aircraft and throughout your canopy ride.

As the tandem jump is designed to give you pure freefall adventure the tandem master controls the whole jump. You do not need to worry about the technical aspects of skydiving. Leave that part to us. Simply get up and go for the ride!!!

The sensation of freefall is quite hard to explain. Once exiting the aircraft you and your instructor will accelerate up to 200km an hour. You can feel the wind rushing past your entire body. Exhilarating is just one word to sum it up.

Depending on the height you choose to skydive from, your freefall times can last up to 25 seconds from 8000 feet, 35 seconds from 10 000 feet, and 50 seconds from 12 000 feet.

When approaching 5000ft during your freefall, the tandem master will deploy the main parachute. You may feel a slight jerk as you decelerate and the canopy fully inflates. Once fully inflated your instructor may point out some sights for you and hand you the steering toggles. Don’t freak out, we have two sets. (like a backup steering wheel!) The view is awesome. You may like to try some turns, or even a spiral or two. For a more serene experience just sit back while the instructor safely escorts you back to the ground. Some say the canopy ride is the most pleasant thing ever experienced. Imagine - nothing around you, beautiful sights, peace and tranquility.

At around 1000 feet, your instructor will again take control and ask you do a practise landing and from then on just enjoy the rest of the ride.

All our instructors are fully certified with the Australian Parachute Federation. They offer expertise in tandem jumping with safety and fun of the utmost importance.
