Skydiving in GRANGES – TANDEM JUMPING FROM A PLANE – From CHF 365.00

Make a tandem parachute jump at Grenchen airfield in the canton of Solothurn

A must-do experience. It’s a chance to push back your limits and your fears.

First you’ll be greeted by an instructor-pilot in our dropzone at Grenchen airfield. Then you prepare yourself under the watchful eye of your instructor. You do some body exercises; position your head and arms during freefall. Secondly, you’ll need goggles, a helmet and possibly a suit. Then comes the moment when you board the plane with a little apprehension. Don’t worry, your instructor-pilot has thousands of jumps under his belt.
What’s more, during the ascent, which lasts around 20 minutes, you can enjoy the beautiful view from the airplane. The pressure eases and you relax a little. The pilot of the plane at 4000 m altitude gives the GO! You’re in front of your pilot and approaching the exit door. One last check and off we go at nearly 200 km/h in free fall. After around 45 seconds, your pilot opens the parachute and suddenly there’s silence, the sound of the wind fading away. You descend smoothly and land softly after a few minutes. Remember to immortalize your tandem jump by ordering a video when you book online on our site. What’s more, if you want to go skydiving on your own, you can do so with us. This is called an AFF jump and requires a day’s preparation. You jump accompanied by 2 instructors who will follow you throughout the freefall. As soon as your parachute opens after about 45 seconds, you continue your descent on your own. You are in radio contact with an instructor on the ground, who guides you through to landing. For the less adventurous, we have free-fall simulators in Sion and Winterthur. You get exactly the same sensations as in a real freefall.
