10,000 ft Freefall Parachute Jump!What’s it like?
Imagine standing at the edge of an open doorway in an aircraft flying at 10,000 feet – the noise of the engines and the wind ringing in your ears with only the outline of distant fields below. Now imagine leaning forward out of that doorway and letting go – falling forward into the clouds, diving down through the air as you start freefalling at over 120mph! Then imagine the peace and quiet as the canopy opens, the steering toggles come down either side of you and you begin a tranquil parachute descent from a mile up in the air, steering yourself back down to the centre of the drop zone below. Imagine being able to do this for FREE whilst harnessed to a professional freefall parachute instructor and at the same time being able to help Pancreatic Cancer Action! Stop imagining, it’s real and it’s happening all the time and you can be part of it…
What does the jump involve?
Technically the jump is called a ‘Tandem Skydive‘. It is a Skydive because you will be freefalling through the air (without the parachute deployed) for several thousand feet; it is in tandem because you will be harnessed to a professional parachute instructor at all times throughout the descent (see topt photo). This is the only way you can jump from such an altitude without spending thousands of pounds becoming a freefall parachutist. This is literally the chance of a lifetime!
This jump is also much less demanding than the traditional ‘static line’ jump as the jump and training are completed in one day and your instructor will be in control of your landing.
Points to remember:
What must I do to qualify for a free jump?
All you have to do is raise £395 (or more!) for Pancreatic Cancer Action by asking your friends and colleagues to sponsor you. Sponsorship forms can be downloaded here: PCA Sponsorship form. Please do not be put off by this amount – if you ask everybody you know to sponsor you, you will find you can quite easily raise the minimum £395 sponsorship and remember, every penny you raise over the minimum will be further contributing to Pancreatic Cancer Action and giving you the chance to make an exhilarating free fall parachute jump for FREE!
