Your Experience
Preparation to Thrill
The journey starts with a pickup from Queenstown and includes a detailed safety briefing by your experienced tandem instructor. You'll then board the aircraft, ascending up to 15,000ft over Lake Wakatipu in roughly 15-20 minutes, where you can enjoy stunning views of mountains and lakes. Now prepared for an adrenaline-packed experience! Brace yourself as you exit the plane door with your Jumpmaster at a secure harness point, freefalling at speeds up to 200 km/h for exhilarating durations between 25 to 60 seconds.
Tranquil Descent
Your parachute will open shortly after, allowing for a peaceful descent over Lake Wakatipu and its mountainous backdrop. The glide lasts approximately 4-5 minutes, offering spectacular views from altitudes of either 9,000ft, 12,000ft, or 15,000ft — each providing varying freefall times ranging from 25 seconds to one full minute.
