Whether you want a once-off jump or are considering doing a full Skydiving Course you need to take part in this tour, the First Jump Static Line Course.
Skydiving, unless you choose Tandem, is a serious business; even though the end result is a whole lot of fun, if you don’t know exactly what you’re doing things could turn sour! Your safety is of paramount importance to us, so you’ll need to set aside a full day for this experience. We guarantee it will be worth it!
The Tour
The day begins early with intensive training - a full 5 to 8 hours of it. Every aspect of the jump is covered in great detail including what to do in the unlikely event that things go wrong. This should make you feel confident that you can handle jumping out of a plane at 3 000 feet!
At the end of the training you will finally pile into the airplane with the rest of your group and be taken up to the required height for your first jump.
The static line is attached to the plane. As you fall away from the aircraft the line deploys the main canopy. The line has to be checked and controlled all the way down to the landing. If this sounds complicated, don’t panic – by the time you jump you will know exactly what to do and how to do it!
Warning: Skydiving is addictive! You jump once and you’ll want to do it again right away! Through Book Cape Town you can book a full 2-week course consisting of a massive 25 jumps of different levels. |
