I jumps, plan on being on the drop zone all day. Tandem jumps are highly encouraged as a first-jump option. They are cheaper, faster, and you can quickly decide whether skydiving is your cup of tea. Your other option is AFF , where you are assisted in freefall by two expert jumpmasters, pull your own ripcord, and fly your own parachute to the ground. We do not offer static line jumps .
Breathing is easy in freefall, but talking is nearly impossible.
Shorts and T-shirts in the summer, sweats in the winter, tennis shoes. Avoid jeans as they tend to be restrictive. Bring snug fitting gloves in the winter if you have them. While it is colder in freefall than on the ground, most people don't notice because they are having so much fun skydiving. The average human body falls approximately 120 miles per hour, so a two-mile skydive from 13,000 feet lasts about one minute.
