Difference between a skydive and a parachute jump?






SKYDIVING

tapskydive
  • Skydives usually take place from around 14,000 feet.
  • Most skydives are done with an instructor and are known as tandem skydives.
  • Skydivers experience an exhilarating 65 second free-fall.
  • The parachute is deployed by the instructor.
  • It’s the instructors job to control the descent and landing.
  • .
    PARACHUTE JUMPING
    parachute 2
  • Parachute jumps usually take place from around 3,000 feet.
  • All parachute jumps are done without an instructor.
  • If you choose a parachute jump you won’t experience any free-fall.
  • The parachute deploys automatically as soon as you leave the plane.
  • It’s the jumpers job to control their descent and land safely.
  • .
    Whichever airborne activity you opt for you’re in for the experience of a life time and if you’re still not sure which of the two you should pick why not find out how brave you really are by starting out with a slightly less daunting parachute jump. Once you’ve experienced the intense excitement of a parachute jump you’ll be ready to take things up a notch and head for the heavens to take on an exhilarating skydive.
