What is the weight limit?
Our maximum weight is 115kg/253lbs. All persons over 95kg are subject to Tandem Master assessment at the drop zone. Persons 95kg -104.9kg will incur a weight surcharge of $50 and those 105kg-115kg a weight surcharge of $75 and a 115kg+ weight surcharge of $100.
The minimum weight is 30kg/66lbs and all passengers must be big enough to fit safely into the harness.
The ability for a child to jump is determined by their age (over 5 years), weight, size and how the harness fits.
Children under the age of 12 need to come out to the dropzone, meet the staff and be fitted in a harness before we can confirm that they can jump. Anyone who is under 18 years of age will need the written consent of a parent or guardian.
What do I need to bring?
What do I need to bring?
A need for adventure! You just need shoes that are secure and won’t fall off so no sandals or jandals. You’ll also need some warm layers of clothing depending on the season, especially in the colder months where we do recommend that multiple layers are more suitable than one large jacket.
