How old do you have to be to skydive?

All jumpers must be at least 18 years of age. This is a requirement from our governing body the USPA (United States Parachute Association) as well as our gear manufacturer UPT.

What is skydiving landing like

While every skydive is unique and each landing has its own challenges, tandem landings are typically soft and smooth. If you land standing its about the same force as hopping off of a step. Sitting landings are more of a sliding action. Tandem landings have more forward speed than vertical descent so it is important to listen to your instructor in pick up your feet until they tell you othewrise.
