Tandem Skydiving
Tandem Skydiving allows you to jump with as little as 30 minutes of
training. Securely attached to a professionally trained tandem instructor,
you freefall for 35 seconds at 120 mph from 10,500 feet above the ground.
At 5,500 feet you have the option to pull your own ripcord. Then enjoy the
5-6 minute canopy ride down while receiving hands-on instruction in parachute
control, steering and a safe, soft landing back to earth.
Staff and Equipment
Skydive Tandem's staff of experienced instructors are rated and certified by the
United States Parachute Association (USPA), the national organization that sets
the guidelines and safety standards for the sport of skydiving. Only the
latest and safest equipment built to Parachute Industry Association (PIA)
standards are used.
Times and Prices:
We skydive on Saturdays, Sundays, and weekday evenings, weather permitting.
