What To Expect From Your Skydiving Experience?

Here's what you can expect if you happen into one of these skydiving experiences: You will be hooked up with gear that includes a specialized jumpsuit, helmet, goggles (to protect against debris), gloves (for warmth), boots (also for warmth) and a parachute harness.

The next thing you know, you're being whisked off to an aeroplane above the clouds. This is new territory for most people, so it helps to have a guide who can settle your nerves through some small talk, keep the mood light with jokes and offer some pointers on how to perform certain manoeuvres once you are ready for them.

Once at altitude, the fun begins. Your instructor will hook you up to him or herself so that they can show you how to manoeuvre your way out of the plane with grace and ease.

Once outside of the aircraft, first-timers are often surprised by how peaceful everything looks from up high – until they experience their first rush of adrenaline as they free-fall toward Earth!
