Ever  Wanted  to  Skydive?

Swoop Landing - By Will Chislett

Just imagine crouching in the door of an aircraft, two and a half miles up in the sky. Moments later you'll be tearing towards the ground at 120mph during a minute of intense freefall. Then you'll open your own parachute and fly it to the ground, while admiring the views from 3,000ft. What other sport can compare to all that?

As a university club we are able to give you big discounts on your jump tickets, reducing most jumps to just £12 (which makes us one of the, if not the cheapest university skydiving club in the UK). If you weren't a club member you could find yourself paying twice that price or even more.

Our socials are now held every Wednesday from 8:00pm at The Honest Politician, on Elm Grove (during term time).

Next Courses

We have now finished running our own static line jump courses for this semester, however we can still get you on a course at anytime. Come along to one of our socials to sign up to a training course or contact a member of the committee to find out more information. The cost of the jump course is £150. This includes your training, first jump, transport and accommodation for the weekend. We can also arrange wind tunnel trips, which are open to skydivers and non-skydivers alike.


See the courses page for more information on the different types of course we offer and contact a member of the committee if you are interested or have any questions.
