skydiving is today's most innovative and
popular way of making that first jump! |

Tandem
jumping uses the dual instruction approach similar to learning
how to fly an airplane, and your tandem instructor will be there
to back you up through all phases of your skydive.
Your
adventure begins with a 30-minute ground school where you meet
staff members, view instructional videotapes, and get a general
overview of your jump. You will learn how to exit the aircraft,
freefall techniques, and body position during landing. |

Then
it's time to jump! |

The
plane ride lasts about 15-20 minutes and the views from our dropzone
are incredible. The ocean views of the majestic New England coastline
and breathtaking mountains will surely enhance your experience.
Once
you've reached altitude, you will jump from our plane from 14,000ft
and experience a full 60 seconds of freefall excitement! The canopy
ride lasts anywhere from 5-9 minutes. |

Skydive
New England offers the Accelerated Freefall program which allows
you to jump for the first time without an instructor attached
to you! After the initial ground school you will jump with your
own rig and a couple instructors holding onto your harness during
freefall. Once you open your canopy you will be guided back to
the dropzone by ground to radio communication in your helmet.
You may then choose to continue with your Accelerated Freefall
training all the way up to becoming a licensed skydiver! |

Whether
you're spending the day, the night, or the entire weekend, Skydive New
England has everything you need to make your stay memorable. Once the
jumping day is done, hang out with your friends at our nightly bonfire
parties, chow on great food at our outdoor barbeques, and check out
the live music. Stick around and enjoy all that Skydive New England
has to offer! |
