First Skydive Jump

The Skydive

Before your tandem skydive, you’ll embark on a 8 to10-minute scenic flight that will take you through the picturesque Lütschental valley, ascending towards the breathtaking Schynige Platte mountain ridge. During this flight, you’ll be treated to panoramic vistas of Interlaken, with the two stunning glacier lakes flanking the landscape, and the iconic Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau mountains gracing the backdrop.

Upon reaching an altitude of approximately ∼4,000 meters, you and your instructor will stand at the helicopter’s edge, pausing to appreciate the moment before leaping into a thrilling freefall up to 200km/h that lasts about 45 seconds. After the parachute deploys at around 5,500 feet (1,500 meters), you’ll gracefully glide above Interlaken, enjoying the serene presence of the shimmering lakes on either side and the towering mountains in the background. Your skilled instructor will guide you to a safe landing back at the drop zone, allowing you to bask in the exhilaration of the skydiving experience.

After landing, your videos and photos will be processed and sent via email within minutes, and our convenient drop-off service and friendly team will transport you back to your desired location in Interlaken, offering a smooth return journey.

Thanks to the helicopter’s panoramic windows and its ability to hover, every skydive package guarantees an incomparable flight before the exciting skydive.

You will receive your video and/or photo package by email on the same day.

Are you ready for the thrill of a lifetime?

If your friends or family would like to accompany you, they are very welcome to join us – as we all know, shared joy is double joy.

However, if you need a pick-up, we cannot guarantee that we will have room in our bus for your friends/family as seats are primarily reserved for our jumping guests. Please reach out to us after making your booking if you have additional spectators that would like to accompany you to our dropzone, so we can make a note of this accordingly.

Unfortunately, for safety and legal reasons, spectators are not permitted to fly in the same helicopter. Our office in Wilderswil provides the perfect location to watch from, with an uninterrupted view of the entire dropzone, comfortable seating and drinks available to purchase.

Maintaining a clear mind and body is crucial for the safe and enjoyable experience of skydiving. It is vital not to drink alcohol or consume drugs before the jump, as these substances can impair judgment and coordination, which are essential for a successful skydive.

We reserve the right to refuse customers we believe have consumed drugs or alcohol.

When preparing for tandem skydiving, it’s essential to wear comfortable clothes that are suitable for the weather conditions of the day. Please note that you are able to wear your own clothing during the jump, but if you prefer, we have jumpsuits available.

Here are some recommendations:

• Comfortable Clothes: Opt for clothing that allows you to move freely. Loose-fitting attire, like t-shirts, sweatshirts, and athletic pants or shorts, is ideal. Avoid wearing restrictive clothing that could limit your movement during the skydive.
• Closed-Toe Shoes: Wearing closed-toe shoes is a must for safety reasons. Athletic shoes or sneakers are highly recommended, as they provide proper support and protect your feet during the landing process. Stiff hiking boots are not recommended.
• Layers: Depending on the weather conditions, it’s a good idea to dress in layers. This way, you can adjust your clothing to stay comfortable throughout the experience.
• Avoid Accessories: It’s best to avoid wearing accessories like jewellery, scarves, or hats during the jump, as they could get in the way or potentially become lost.

As mentioned, we will provide you with a jumpsuit that you have the option to wear during the experience. This jumpsuit serves multiple purposes, including providing an extra layer of protection and enhancing the overall skydiving experience. In the colder months, we also provide gloves and buffs.

Breathing during a skydive is a surprisingly manageable task. While the initial sensation of freefall might momentarily take your breath away, you’ll quickly adapt to the experience, and breathing will come naturally. Our skydiving instructors will provide thorough guidance on maintaining a relaxed body position, ensuring you can breathe comfortably throughout the entirety of the jump. With their support, you can focus on savouring every moment of this thrilling adventure with ease.

Feeling nervous before the jump is entirely normal, but engaging in positive self-talk can help alleviate anxiety. Remind yourself of the comprehensive safety measures in place and place your trust in the expertise of your experienced instructor.

Before taking the leap, take a few deep breaths to centre yourself and remain calm. Visualizing a successful jump can boost your confidence and help you feel more at ease. Remember that skydiving is a thrilling adventure that countless people have embraced safely, and with proper preparation and guidance, you too can savour the exhilaration of this extraordinary endeavour.

To fully engage in this thrilling activity, it’s advisable to be well-hydrated and have a light meal beforehand, as the adrenaline rush can be intense. Keeping a clear head and being physically prepared ensures that you have full control of your actions and cognition, which are necessary for a safe and memorable skydiving experience.
