Welcome

Tandem parachuting is our most popular UK skydiving course. It is designed to allow you to experience freefall skydiving without the fuss of doing an intensive course. After 20 minutes of instruction you will be ready to do a parachute jump with your tandem instructor.

You will experience terminal velocity at around 120 mph on your first jump for up to a minute!

Why choose a Tandem Parachute Jump?

Compared to our other courses (Accelerated Freefall Level 1 and Static-Line) there are several key advantages. For a start, the training takes less time because you have a qualified instructor harnessed to you during the jump. They will guide you through the skydive and have thousands of jumps. In addition, you have the chance to explore the freedom of freefall without concentrating on your instructors. You can look around the beautiful scenery, smile at the video camera (if you have added that into your package) and enjoy the thrill of a lifetime.

Charity Jumps / Jump for Free

Many of our customers choose tandem skydiving because it is an excellent way to raise money for Charity. You have the choice of choosing a charity which is close to your heart, or selecting one of our recommended charities.

Charity skydiving is easy to do and we can help you with sponsorship forms and some tips on collecting funds. If you collect enough money you can even skydive for free.
