Things To Know
Do's- Pay attention to each and every detail shared with you during the training session so that you have a good grasp of the nitty-gritty of skydiving. While most of the organizers conduct a compulsory training session, if you wish to fly solo, you can also enrol yourself in a well-equipped training facility
- Make sure that you familiarize yourself with the gear properly
- Check if the trainer is qualified with the necessary certifications
- It is best to go for a skydive on a light meal - neither on an empty stomach nor on a full stomach because the first-time thrill seekers might feel nauseous
- Dress appropriately - gym shorts, a full-sleeves tight fit top and tight-lacing shoes so that the wind doesn't knock them off or the strings with metal pop on your fancy top does not make the fun ride a painful one
- Acrophobics should avoid skydiving as it would not be a pleasant experience for them
Don'ts
- It is good to research on the internet before trying out something new and challenging such as skydiving, however, do not go by every word. There will always be negatives about everything, then there will also be troubling tales online the trick is not to let yourself believe truly in every word. The operators take great care of the participants' safety so any chance of things set off in the opposite direction is extremely low
- While the height of freefall is mentioned to give you an idea of the thrill involved here, do not torment yourself by imagining the unimaginable about how big the fall is because that's where all the fun lies
- During the fall, if panic grips you for a moment, relax, take a deep breath and recall the training course calmly and connect with the instructor immediately over the radio if you are on a solo flight
- Confidence is always good but does not allow yourself to be overconfident and think that the training is not required now that you have seen enough skydiving videos on YouTube
- Always go for the training prior to the jump. Lastly, skydiving in itself is an adrenaline-pumping activity, so, do not plan on consuming alcohol in a hope to double the fun. We can assure you that the fun is guaranteed.
