With no previous experience in Skydiving required, tandem skydiving is undoubtedly the safest and most convenient way to experience skydiving for the first time. And, with our location in the Vredefort Dome World Heritage Site, Skydive Parys is unquestionably the most scenic and historic place to experience the exhilarating thrill of tandem Skydiving Johannesburg.
What Can I Expect?
Our team of highly professional and qualified Tandem Masters will take you from 0-200km/h for an unforgettable freefall experience. At a safe altitude the tandem master will deploy the parachute and you will enjoy a 5-7 minute canopy flight over the beautiful Vaal river before landing back at the drop zone.
- The Tandem Skydive experience begins with a 15 minute detailed briefing. This covers all aspects of the Skydive and the parachute system, the aircraft exit, the free fall body position, the parachute flight, and the parachute landing.
- Each person is fitted with a specifically designed tandem harness, jump suit and goggles and is assigned to a Tandem Master.
- The climb to altitude takes approximately 15-25 minutes, depending on the aircraft used on the day.
- Attached to a highly experienced Tandem Master, you will exit the aircraft and enter the world of free fall.
- At the safe and predetermined altitude the Tandem Master will deploy the Main Parachute.
- You will now, under the guidance of the Tandem Master, be offered a chance to fly the parachute. The tandem master will perform the parachute landing.
Each person’s entire experience is professionally filmed, photographed and edited. We upload your video and photos to Google Drive, so you can conveniently download. (Only applicable to the packages, that include video and photos) Each person receives a prestigious certificate of achievement.
