Tandem Skydive
A Tandem skydive adventure allows you to experience the thrill of a lifetime. In a fun filled half hour class, we not only teach you how to pull the ripcord, but how to steer and land the parachute just like a professional. Experience has told us this is the best way to start learning how to skydive. After your orientation class, we take you up to 14,000 feet for up to 65 seconds of freefall time. All the while you are harnessed to your expert instructor who is there to ensure your safety and enjoyment.After falling at 120 miles per hour you'll slow your descent, at 6,000 feet, by pulling the ripcord and deploying your parachute. Then begin a 5-7 min exciting parachute descent to a soft, on target landing. After landing you will receive a logbook from your instructor to certify that you made a Tandem training skydive. Each of the skydives you make with us counts towards your skydiving license certification. After making 2-3 tandem skydives you can proceed into the solo portion of the Skydiver Training Program.

Student Training Program
The Skydiver Training Program (STP) is the most complete teaching method for skydiving in use to date. After your Tandem training adventure you start the Solo STP portion by attending the solo training class. This 3 hour class is offered on Thursday evenings (6pm-9pm). You will be instructed on how to use the easy to operate parachute system. We also introduce safe skydiving techniques that you will use for the rest of your skydiving career.On each STP-Solo skydive you and the expert instructor exit together from 14,000 feet. While you perform fun and exciting maneuvers, the instructor will also be taking video of you for FREE. The video provides an excellent training tool and is also great entertainment for your friends and family.After falling at 120 miles per hour for up to 65 seconds, you deploy the parachute at 6,000 feet. The instructor will assist you, via radio, during the 4-6 minute parachute descent. After practicing safe flying skills and making a soft, on target landing your instructor will debrief your skydive and landing. By using the video you get a clear precise review of your skydive.Upon completion of the Skydiver Training Program you will have earned an 'A' License from The United States Parachute Association (USPA).
