Tandem Info

The Tandem is the most simple way to introduce anyone to freefall skydiving. A USPA certified tandem instructor jumps with you after a 30 minutes training class. You will be trained on basic body position for exit and freefall, how to read the altimeter and how to open the parachute! You will also be introduced to basic canopy flight and landing procedures. The student and instructor are harnessed together in a special parachute system built for two people. You will exit the aircraft between 10,000 to 12,000 feet depending on the aircraft being used. You freefall together for over a mile, you will open the parachute and you descend to the ground together under the huge canopy. After your first Tandem jump, you can continue with your tandem student progression which consists of one or two more tandem skydives. You can then a transition to AFF. You also can immediately transition to an AFF after only one tandem jump if you choose and continue your skydiving training. The maximum weight for Tandem students is 250 lbs, with height and weight being in proportion. If you are uncertain if you meet the guidelines, please come out and visit and an instructor will make the final determination. Minimum age limit is 18 years old.

Tandem is one of our most popular skydiving programs. This jump includes a minute long freefall, and 5 minute canopy ride while you're actually attached to your instructor. This is an excellent way to experience your first skydive.
