The Tandem skydive is by far the most popular way to make your first skydive. With minimal ground training, you are able to experience the exhilaration of freefall for nearly one minute before your tandem jumpmaster opens the parachute.
Skydive Jacksonville is the best place in Florida to make your first tandem jump in Florida. After a 20 minute training and safety briefing you will completely understand the equipment and the sequence of events. You and your jumpmaster will board the aircraft wearing a dual harness assembly. Once you reach your jump altitude you will exit the aircraft securely harnessed to your instructor for an unbelievable freefall at 120 M.P.H!!!
After your parachute opens you will have a scenic 4 to 6 minute parachute ride. This is north florida skydiving at it's best! Because your instructor is with you all the way to landing, there is no need for you to worry about anything during your jump except to remember to relax and have fun!! Your instructor will take care of everything which will allow you to completely enjoy yourself!
