FAQs

  • The thrill! The excitement! The personal challenge!

    It takes great courage to jump out of a plane from 15,000ft. Some people do it to raise money for charity, others do it for a pure rush, which you can’t find anywhere else. One thing is for certain, everybody wants to go again.

  • If you are 163cm/5’4” tall or over, you must be under 95kg/15stone.

    If you are less than 163cm/5’4”, the maximum weight limit is 83kg/13stone.

    Tandem skydiving is open to most people, including those with some disabilities. We do need you to be able to physically raise your legs for landing.

    If you have no pre existing conditions or disabilities, you can sign the relevant form yourself:

    British Skydiving F115-A – Student Tandem Medical Information and Declaration.

    If you have any current or former disabilities or health conditions, you’ll need to take one of these forms to your doctor prior to your jump day. If you don’t have access to a printer, let us know and we’ll post one out to you.

    British Skydiving F115-B – Student Tandem Medical Advice Form.

    We believe skydiving should be accessible to as many people as possible. If you are unsure if it’s suitable for your, or you need any adjustments to help you access our services, please get in touch and we will organise an assessment.

  • Tandem skydiving has a very low rate of injury, with the most common issue being skydiving students feeling a bit sick or faint. Injuries are possible in any sport, you will be shown in training how to minimise this risk. If you have any questions at all, just ask.

    If you have any pre-existing medical conditions or have had any surgery you will need approval from a doctor prior to jumping, and may be assessed prior to training/jumping.

  • The minimum age to skydive in the UK is 16. Under 18’s MUST have a parent or legal guardian to co-sign their forms, this can be done on the day or in advance.

    There is no upper age limit at all for tandem jumps, our oldest jumper was in their 90s.

    We’re dedicated to getting as many people in the air as possible, so please give us a call on 028 2955 8609 if you have any questions.

  • Under British Skydiving rules we can’t let you take your own GoPro/camera until you have 200 jumps.

    We do however have a highly skilled team of freefall videographers, that can capture your experience as part of our 4K Media package!

  • Of course! We have special rates for anyone wanting to get straight back on it on the same day. You can also train with us to be a fully licensed skydiver, read about our Solo skydiver course here.

  • Skydiving is weather dependent and there’s always the chance that skydivers will have to wait a while, or even come back another day.

    All our skydives are non refundable, but there is no charge or penalty to reschedule due to weather. We do ask that skydivers are prepared to turn up and wait for suitable conditions, as forecasts aren’t always accurate.
