An instructor will be strapped into you and guides you through the jump; from exiting the aircraft, through freefall, piloting the canopy, and landing!
Embrace the outdoors
Life in Sydney can get really busy, and it’s easy to lose yourself in the hustle and bustle of daily life. An increasingly popular way of celebrating love is escaping the big smoke for a Valentine’s Day getaway.
