Skydiving in Tandem: Information When Skydiving in Raleigh, North Carolina

http://www.skydivingoverraleigh.com/

Skydiving Over Raleigh highly recommends a Tandem Sky dive for your initial skydive lesson. A Tandem Skydive requires almost no education while upholding the utmost amount of safety. Your Tandem Master will accompany you throughout your entire skydive and descent. All that is required from you is to relax and soak in the amazing scenery on your first sky dive in Raleigh!

Before your jump, you will attend a 15 minute school on how to help your teacher ensure that your jump is the safest and most exciting sky diving experience! After your short class on the tandem sky dive, your Tandem Master will assist you with your harness and check the gear for safety.

Next comes getting on to the airplane, and it will likely be be the most nerve-wracking experience of your day. You may not be sure about what will come next as you have a seat in the airplane. Then, when you hear the airplane motor come to life, you will experience a burst of adrenaline and gather your courage for what is ahead!

At approximately 5000 ft., your instructor may show you his altimeter and let you know that this is the same altitude that he will be deploying the canopy on your sky dive. Courageous students may be allowed to deploy the canopy themselves, so be sure to ask if this is something that interests you.

Finally, when you are over two miles above Raleigh, your Tandem Master will ask you to assist him in getting ready for the jump. You will be prepared to jump when the door opens and the wind comes blowing into the plane.

Right before you jump the camera will film you looking back into the plane at the other skydivers. Get Ready... Set... DIVE!!! Feel the rush as you dive at 120 MPH freefall for between 40 to 60 seconds. You will believe that you are flying while a trained videographer films it all.

When your parachute opens, the wind will go silent. At this point you will fly peacefully down from 5000 feet. Your parachute ride will last around 7 to 10 minutes. You may be able to guide the canopy and ask your Tandem Master questions about the jump. Remember to look around at all the dazzling scenery while you return to the North Carolina soil.

You will be impressed at the leisure with which you land your canopy. The landing will make you think that you are stepping off of your front porch. It’s easier than you think!
