A tandem skydive is the easiest way to experience freefall. After about
an
hour's training you'll be securely strapped to your instructor and
board the aircraft. At around 13,000ft you will watch everyone else
leap out,
before edging towards the door yourself. Moments later you'll be
hurtling towards the ground at about 120mph before your instructor
safely opens your parachute after nearly a minute of freefall. Your
tandem instructor will then help you steer the parachute to the landing
area for a nice soft landing. If you want, you can even get a cameraman
to jump with you to create a lasting record of your skydive.The tandem skydives will be taking place on Saturday 15th May 2010 and Sunday 16th May 2010.
To sign up to do a tandem skydive please e-mail rag@upsu.net stating that you would like to do a tandem skydive, and also if you require transport to the dropzone or wish to make your own way there.
