I love Skydiving
Go to Skydiving with me!
For those that are new to skydiving, you probably have a lot of questions about your first jump. You may have heard the
term “tandem skydiving”, but aren’t really sure what it means.
Or, maybe that word is completely foreign and you were simply curious about your first big leap: can you skydive alone
on your first jump? How can you prepare? And how safe really is skydiving?
Let’s learn a little about tandem jumping, and discover why it’s always the best way beginners can learn how to skydive.
WHAT IS TANDEM SKYDIVING?
A tandem skydive is a skydiving experience where two people jump out of an airplane together, strapped to one another during the entire descent. The connecting straps make it so that one person is floating above the other during the freefall, with one’s back against the other’s frontside.HOW MUCH TRAINING DO YOU NEED TO TANDEM JUMP?
Since you’ll be jumping with a certified tandem instructor who will do most of the work during the landing, you’ll only need to attend “skydiving school” prior to the leap. Here at CSC, we call this Freefall University!You’ll watch an orientation video and go through a briefing with your instructor before getting geared up. Here you’ll learn a little about the equipment and how you can help your partner during the freefall and landing for the best experience. All of this can be done right before your skydive, so not a lot of training is necessary!
CAN MY FRIENDS JUMP AT THE SAME TIME?
You can certainly share your skydiving experience with your friends. You and your buddies can all ride up in the plane together, but when it comes to the actual jump, you’ll be strapped to your certified instructor.We also don’t allow tandem partners to jump at the same time, as a safety precaution. If you jump first though, you can watch your friend land! Our Drop Zone Location
