Mauritius Tandem Skydiving – Experience skydiving in Mauritius

Upon your arrival you will be welcomed by the airfield team who will help you to put on your jump suit and your safety harness while briefing you about the different steps of your jump - positions to be adopted during your unique experience, the climb in the plane, the exit and the free fall, the flight under sail and of course the landing.

Once fully prepared as well as mentally ready, time to board the skydive aircraft for your once in a lifetime experience. You will be attached securely to one of the qualified and licensed tandem instructors via a dual harness system. You will enjoy a 20 minutes flight as you climb to altitude and maximum opportunity to take in the impressive views on the way up to the 10,000 feets skydive altitude.

The free-fall - An unforgettable experience! An amazing feeling of floating in the air! Open your arms, smile and jump! Enjoy this unique experience in the air - 30 seconds of freefall. Remember to keep that lovely smile on as your instructor who will be attached to you will be glad to snap your amazing experience.

As you approach the land, the instructor will open the parachute so that you can enjoy a 5 to 7 minute parachute ride while feasting your eyes with unrivalled and uninterrupted views of the island from above before a nice soft landing on the runway. This moment will remain unforgettable!

Also, for a small additional cost you will receive a pendrive with the recording of your skydive.

What is Tandem Skydiving?

Tandem skydiving refers to a type of skydiving where a student skydiver is connected via a harness to a tandem instructor. The instructor guides the student through the whole jump from exit through freefall, piloting the canopy, and landing. The student needs only minimal instruction before making a tandem jump.

Tandem skydiving is a very popular training method for first time skydivers. It exposes first-time jumpers with minimal training and experience to skydiving.

The training before the jump may consist of basic training of how to exit the aircraft, how to do maneuvers in freefall, and how to deploy the main canopy themselves. However, the tandem skydiving instructor remains primarily responsible for safe and timely parachute deployment.

Modern parachute equipment is very reliable and instances of malfunctions are rare. However, in the unlikely event of a fault with the main parachute, the system is fitted with a back-up reserve parachute to guarantee maximum safety.

For first time jumpers it is always recommended to have a small bite to eat shortly before your jump to maintain your blood sugar level at a reasonable level.
