What is Tandem Skydiving?

Tandem skydiving pairs each participant with a certified instructor via a specialized harness system. The instructor manages all technical aspects of the jump, from exit through freefall, canopy control, and landing procedures. This format requires minimal advance preparation for first-time skydivers.

This approach has become the preferred introduction to skydiving for newcomers. It provides an authentic freefall experience while maintaining optimal safety standards through expert guidance.

Pre-jump training covers essential elements like proper aircraft exit positioning, freefall maneuvers, and main canopy deployment procedures. However, the certified tandem instructor retains primary responsibility for ensuring safe and timely parachute activation.

Contemporary skydiving equipment demonstrates exceptional reliability with an extremely low malfunction rate. As an added safety measure, all systems include a reserve parachute to guarantee maximum protection in the unlikely event of a main canopy issue.

For optimal blood sugar levels, consuming a light meal shortly before the scheduled jump time is recommended for first-time participants.

What to bring/wear

Closed-toe footwear with secure lacing or straps is mandatory.
