What happens if the parachute doesn't open?
In the very unlikely event that the main parachute doesn't open
properly, there is a reserve parachute in the top of the container
which has been inspected and packed by a FAA certified parachute
rigger. All of our reserve parachutes are equipped with the most
reliable and modern AAD's (Automatic Activation Device) available.
This device will deploy the reserve parachute if the main parachute
is not opened.
What is your safety record?
Soaring Sports has a PERFECT safety record due to our dedication
to providing only state of the art equipment and training for our
instructors.
Isn't the landing like jumping off a two-story building?
The landing is easy. In the early days of sport parachuting, landings
were sometimes quite hard. The new "ram-air" parachutes
of today allow landings that are softer than jumping off of a chair.
How long will it take to make my first jump?
For a tandem skydive, plan on at least 2 hours.
An AFF level 1 skydive plan to spend the entire day with us.
Can I get pictures of my skydive?
Yes,
Video and 35 mm stills are available at an additional charge.
