At Paragon Skydive, safety is our #1 priority and we are 100% committed to this!
Our Highly experienced Tandem Instructors are qualified and accredited by the USPA as well as being specifically trained by the equipment manufacturers.
To become a Tandem Instructor in the USA, one of the many requirements is that you must have completed hundreds of skydives with some of our staff having over 8,000 jumps in total.
We use state of the art equipment including Vigil Automatic Activation Devices that automatically deploys reserve parachute if required.
Our equipment is maintained to higher than recommended standards and all staff abide by our stringent safety rules and regulations.
Our Aircraft are maintained to stringent FAA specifications with routine inspections carried out by qualified aviation mechanics on an ongoing basis.
Statistically, according to the National Safety Council, you are more likely to be killed being struck by lightning than doing a tandem skydive!
Skydiving is an extreme sport, and like any extreme sport there is a certain amount of risk involved. When you compare the statistic of Tandem Skydiving compared with the statistics for registered cars in the same states, it would seem the most dangerous part of your day is going to be driving to the Drop Zone!
