Tandem Jumps

Did you know that in Australia, there are around 70,000 tandem skydives made every year? Whether you have been a Nor-Wester for years or just travelling through the Pilbara, a tandem skydive is the ultimate way to see this rugged coastline. When wind conditions allow, we may be able to land with you on the beach in front of Trawlers Tavern at Point Samson. We guarantee the beer afterwards will have never tasted so good!

The tandem skydive is a fabulous way to experience the action packed adventure of freefall for the first time, simply because there is no formal training necessary, no drills for you to remember and no major responsibility on your part. Being attached to your instructor via a tandem harness enables you to enjoy the thrill of skydiving in a comfortable situation, with nothing to do except enjoy the visuals and feel the wind speed past your face as you wave to your camera person.

A tandem jump will cost $399 from 10,000 feet. For an extra $50 you can go to 12,000 feet, and an extra $50 will get you to 14,000 - the highest you can go without oxygen. After approximately ten minutes training, you will climb to height in our Cessna 182, which will take about 25 minutes. On the flight you will see spectacular views of the coast and the sparkling archipelago. Your instructor will attach your harness to his, then, when the door opens you will experience an overwhelming adrenalin rush. That first step may overload your senses! After you exit the plane, you will have approximately fifty seconds of freefall, travelling at 180-200 kms per hour. Your instructor will open your parachute at 5000 feet, and then you will have about five minutes under canopy, floating gently to the ground. You will be able to talk to your instructor once your parachute is open, and he may let you steer the parachute while you enjoy views that can’t be bettered by any other skydiving club in Australia.  You may also have your tandem master wear a camera on his wrist and film and photograph your preparation, freefall and landing. You will be sure to show your family and friends over and over!  We can put your jump on a professionally edited  DVD for $150. Sometimes we have an outside camera man available who can jump with you, film your skydive and take digital still photographs. This option $200 on DVD.  See our faq's for more info and online bookings to book!
