16,500ft Tandem Skydive

Experience one of New Zealand's best tandem skydives from a mind-boggling 16,500ft!

Your experience begins when you arrive at the base and meet with your jump master.

You'll view an instructional DVD as well as receive a comprehensive briefing. Then suit up with your jump gear and harness., then climb onboard the aircraft.

You will enjoy a 20 minute scenic flight to altitude over two national parks, snow-capped mountains, golden beaches and turquoise oceans - Paradise! From 16,500ft you can see Mt Taranaki in the North Island and Mt Cook in the South Island.

When its time for your jump, will you be nervous, excited or both? If this is your first time skydiving, then nothing can prepare you for the exhilaration and adrenalin you will feel in the moments before your jump. At altitude the door of the aircraft opens and the fun begins... you will experience 70+ seconds of freefall!

During your skydive, you will look out at the expanse of country stretching out beneath you and have a sensation of unparalleled freedom. You will reach speeds of 200km/h through the air! The parachute will be open and you'll gently float back down to earth for a smooth landing. You won't be able to wipe the grin from your face! Under 12 year olds will be assessed on the day.Our maximum weight is 100kgs. We can sometimes accommodate guests up to 120kgs, but this at the discretion of the Tandem Master on the day and dependent on weather conditions. A surcharge may apply.
