DescriptionImagine jumping from an airplane flying 14,000 feet above the ground and soaring through the air at 120 MPH!
After nearly 60 seconds of free fall, you will deploy your parachute at 5,000 feet, and glide to the landing area on a solo parachute descent! Of course, there is some training that takes place to get you ready for this incredible jump!
How it Works:
Your day begins with a 4-6 hour ground training lesson. During this course you will learn how to exit the airplane, practice correct freefall body position and learn how to fly and land the parachute.
Provided the schedule, weather and aircraft are cooperating we get you up for your skydive on the same day as your ground training.
There will be two instructors with you in freefall who will assist you from the exit of the airplane until you open the parachute 60 seconds later.
Once the parachute is open the instructors continue in freefall a bit lower while you begin flying the parachute towards the landing area.
Your canopy flight is backed by radio assistance in the event you need any guidance!
Take pride in knowing you have accomplished what less than 1% of the world has ever done!AvailabilityYear Round, weekends
