FSC Südpfalz e.V.
Imagine: You're racing towards the earth at 200 km/h in free fall from about 4000 meters. The parachute opens, and you float through the air while enjoying the breathtaking view of the Southern Palatinate. Unbelievable? No, you can experience this too – whether you're 7 or 99 years old!
A tandem skydive is a parachute jump in which a special harness connects you securely to an experienced tandem master. He handles the exit, the canopy and the landing – you enjoy around 40 to 50 seconds of freefall from about 4,000 metres, followed by 5 to 10 minutes under canopy above the Südpfalz. No training is required: a short briefing on the day is enough.
What used to be reserved for licensed skydivers is now open to everyone. If you are between 1.45 m and 1.95 m tall and weigh up to 95 kg with clothes and shoes, you can take part in this unique adventure.
