Introductory Tandem Skydive in Wales

Experience the thrill of free-fall from 7,000ft with this exhilarating skydive

You'll fly up to 7,000ft in the air before the roar of the plane engines softens and you realise your time has come. What follows is a short free fall from the aircraft whilst strapped securely to a qualified instructor! At 6,000ft the instructor deploys the parachute and you'll enjoy the amazing views over the Gower Peninsula while floating gently into the landing zone guided by an instructor. Following a short pre-jump briefing you will be provided with a skydivers jump suit to go over your clothes (you should wear comfortable clothing such as a track suit and trainers). Then after fitting a tandem parachute harness (and appropriate headgear and goggles) the jump plane will take 20-25 minutes to reach the required altitude of 7,000ft - then it's out in to the blue! At 6000ft the instructor deploys the parachute and you'll enjoy the amazing views over the Gower Peninsula while floating gently into the landing zone guided by an instructor.
