Skydive Tandem Basic

Report by Manuela Surer on 03.09.24

It was a great experience. Everything went very well. The SkyDivers do it well and explain it easily. They are helpful and uncomplicated. It's important to pay attention to what they say: when jumping and when landing.
Highly recommended!

The straightforward introduction on the ground inspires confidence: they can do it!
Then the journey to 4000m above sea level: perfectly organized, no waiting times, the flight in the Cessna has something adventurous about it - the excitement grows!
Then the door of the plane is opened: one after the other jumps. Together with my tandem master, I make my way to the exit. Legs out and under the machine, hands on the straps, head back and we fall. After 2...3 seconds, the small brake parachute limits the speed to around 200 km/h and also helps to stabilize the flight position. Then the quasi free fall: pure pleasure! The tandem master takes care of everything else. After 40...45 seconds, I am abruptly brought back from my surreal world with a thump: the parachute has been opened. Now it's a much more leisurely return to earth, sometimes with the tandem master, sometimes with his passenger as pilot. The landing: Legs up - and the tandem master makes a fantastic landing. Comparable to riding a slide on the sofa! The adrenaline rush certainly lasted 24 hours.
All in all: unforgettable and therefore urgently worth emulating!
