Are you looking for the ultimate adrenaline rush? Nothing can beat the feeling of free falling from an airplane other than doing it whilst raising money for CHUMS Charity! 

This unforgettable experience will take place on 11th June 2023 at Brackley Airfield, Hinton, Northamptonshire. You’ll receive training from a seasoned professional, and a full safety briefing before climbing into the sky with your friends before jumping tandem with an experienced parachutist.

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 a national charity! 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 front 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.

Places are limited and allocated on a first come, first served basis, so don’t miss out, click here to register your place today.
