The Top 5 Things to Know about Skydiving

Skydiving can seem like a very intimidating sport to some but the thrill of adventure and excitement cannot be overlooked. While it’s easy to get caught up in the thrill of the sport, it’s important to know a few things before going full-throttle so that you can not only save time and money but also fully enjoy the skydiving experience!

1.) Speak to experienced skydivers and asked them where you can go for the best lessons and any other advice they can about the sport! This friendly bunch could be one of your greatest resources!

2.) Wait on buying the gear. For the first few jumps at least, you will be supplied with whatever you will need while in the air. And if you’re serious about jumping and taking training, it will be at least a few weeks before you get into the air.

3.) Find tutorial videos. Not Hollywood action films where the characters are doing stunts out of a plane but real educational videos that capture a real skydive experience on film. It will help you better understand what to expect.

4.) Don’t drink alcohol before you go. Although something impulsive sounds like a good idea, it’s not.

5.) Enjoy the jump. It’s important to get training but you’re here for enjoyment so fly through the air and remember why you love it so much!
