What are the landing zone options and conditions?
We have defined landing zones, which we will show you at the briefing. The landing zone is small and it is important that we only land there, hence the requirement of 500 jumps.

As an experienced skydiver, you know that the right clothing is essential for a successful jump. Remember to take into account the cooler temperatures at altitude, especially during the winter months.

What happens if the weather is bad on the day of my solo Skydive

Why do we use a Helciopter instead of a Airplane?
- Incomparable views and flexibility: helicopters can hover, even just flying up is an experience. A hovering exit is a new feeling for you…
- Unique jump experience: A jump from a helicopter is often perceived as more exciting, as you can stand outside and simply jump into nothing.
- View: Thanks to the helicopter we can jump in such beautiful places as we are not dependent on an airfield.
