Tandem Skydiving - Adelaide

Tandem Skydiving is an amazing way to experience the thrill and excitement of freefall for the first time, simply because there is no formal training necessary, therefore no drills for you to remember and no major responsibility on your part. Your tandem skydive experience will have you attached to your tandem skydiving instructor via a dual harness. This allows you to enjoy the thrill of skydiving in a comfortable situation with the wind speeding past your face as you wave to your freefall photographer or tandem instructor's handcam video camera.

The aircraft flight takes around 20-30 minutes to reach your exit height, plenty of time to enjoy the amazing scenic views over the Adelaide Hills, Coorong, Lake Alexandrina and the Murray River. When you depart the aircraft you'll experience the thrill of freefall for approximately 25 – 60 seconds (depeding on your jump height option), reaching speeds up to 200kms per hour. Your instructor will open the parachute at 5,000ft and you will have a 5-minute canopy ride back to the Drop Zone.

Jump Height options

8,000ft – 25 seconds freefall
10,000ft – 40 seconds freefall
12,000ft – 50 seconds freefall
14,000ft – 60 seconds freefall

You choose your jump height below when booking a day.

Your tandem skydive finishes with you lifting your legs so your instructor can perform the landing for you, right in front of your family and friends. Tandem skydiving is an exhilarating feeling which is almost impossible to explain. If you’re after a thrill, and excitement is what you need... a Tandem Skydive is for you.

What if the weather is bad?
We can jump in up to 25 knots of wind, however this is subject to turbulent and gusty conditions. Low, thick complete cloud cover and heavy rain will also stop us jumping. If you are unable to complete your jump due to weather, you can rebook your jump to another day of your choice.

Age & Health
The minimum age for a tandem skydive is 14 years. Anyone under 18 years will require parent or guardian consent. There is no maximum age limit subject to our health restrictions. If you are over 60 years old or have any medical condition, we require a doctor's certificate before you can jump.

You need to be in reasonable health to ensure a fun safe experience and we do reserve the right to refuse a skydive based on age, weight and health.

Size and weight limitations
The maximum weight for tandem skydive or parachute flight is 100kg but in some circumstances, we can go to 110 kg but may need to wait for the right weather conditions, and there is surcharge for anyone over 90kg. Surcharge for over 90kg $25, over 95kg $45, over 100 $70. Payable on the day.

What should I wear?
Loose, comfortable clothing is best. When the harness is tightened, tight clothing such as jeans can be uncomfortable. Less bulky clothing is best. Shoes should be of the 'runner' or 'sand shoe' variety, preferably without a heel. Please no bulky boots with hooks. Dress as you would for the weather on the ground.

Glasses and Contact Lenses You can jump with either as we will supply special goggles for both.

How long will it take?
We advise that you arrive with no time constraints and keep at least a 1/2 day free from your arrival at the skydiving centre. A Tandem jump involves a 20 minute briefing and gear up after which you will board the aircraft for flight.

The Price quoted below is valid for 1 person. Please booked at least 3 days before you want to jump.
