We Are A United States Parachute Association
(U.S.P.A.)Group Member Parachute Center.
A BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF YOUR FIRST JUMP
After a short, but thorough briefing you will climb two miles above the earth in a customized aircraft. You will exit the plane with a certified tandem instructor. He will guide you through the experience of a lifetime. Free falling at speeds up to 120 miles per hour, you will feel like you are flying for almost a minute. Then you will feel a gentle tug as the parachute opens, creating a hushed silence.
While you are enjoying the most magnificent view of the rolling countryside, your instructor will guide you through a hands on instruction in canopy control. The parachute ride lasts five to seven minutes.
Next comes the landing, surprisingly soft! Your instructor coaches you through the landing, and before your feet touch the ground, you'll be anticipating your next jump. Take a look at the video it's worth a thousand words.
We provide everything you need.
First jump price includes training, equipment, and first jump certificate.
When you come for your training and jump, please wear clothing suitable for the weather. Classes are held regardless of the weather.
Wear Sneakers (not boots).
Please don't jump on an empty stomach, eat breakfast.
