Tandem Jumping is definitely the easiest and fastest way the fascination of Skydiving.
Tandem Jump has been for many of us, the first step into Sport Parachuting.
After a short briefing on the ground, The Tandem Master takes his passenger to the jump altitude of 4000 m (13000 ft) and will carry him for an almost one minute long free fall, until reaching the altitude of 1.500m (5.000 ft) and opening the main parachute. After a few minutes of flight under your brightly colored steerable square parachute, you will gently land in front of your friend right on the airfield.
For Tandem jumping, we use specially designed parachuting equipment, made of two over-sized parachutes (one main parachute and one reserve) together with a passenger harness t attach you firmly to your Instructor.
A medical certificate is not needed, provided you are in a general good health. Heart disease or epilepsy are however reasons for exclusion.
For safety reasons we limit the weight of the Tandem candidates to 95 kg (210 lbs.)
