Skydiving Experience Days: A tandem skydive in Cornwall offers more than just the
considerable thrill of jumping from a plane... When you choose a
skydiving in Cornwall, you choose to freefall over some of
England's most beautiful scenery - the stunning Cornish coastline.
In fact, the airfield and Perranporth is located right on a
cliff-top, overlooking one of the top UK surfing beaches. You
really could not ask for anything more while hurtling towards the
ground at 120mph!
The beauty of a tandem skydive is that you have all the thrills and
enjoy the full fear-factor of freefall, while secure in the
knowledge that a seasoned skydiver is in full control, leaving you
free to simply enjoy the ride!Your Tandem Skydive at Perranporth
Airfield in Cornwall will begin with a registration signing session
before sitting through a safety and technique brief with the
instructor talking through a few points. Then, once briefed and
ready - you'll move to the practice mats to begin the technique
practical demonstration of tucking your legs and head when and
where the instructor says! Then, once fully briefed - you'll don
the safety gear and take to Newquay's only drop zone runway ready
to take off! Sat between the legs of your instructor and in one of
two skydiver rows, you'll reach the height of 10,000ft - where an
instructor will open the hatch ready to begin the descents! When
it's your turn, you and your instructor will shuffle to the open
door where you will dangle your legs over the edge - ready to begin
your unforgettable tandem skydive back to ground level. After 30-40
seconds of free fall, your instructor will open the parachute and
you'll spend around 6-7 minutes floating back to earth with nothing
but glorious Cornwall coastal views around you.
