You must be at least 18 years old. We highly recommend making reservations for returning jumps. Try to arrive as prepared for returning jumps as you did for your first, wear appropriate clothing, no boots or shoes with hooks, bring your logbook, and don't forget to eat! Individuals weighing over 225lbs. must have doctor´s approval.

The Jump:
You will enter the aircraft with your instructor, and climb to an altitude of 13,500 feet. The freefall of the jump will be approximately 40 seconds. At appx 5000 feet, your instructor will deploy the main canopy, and you will get about a four minute ride under the canopy.

If you decide to get the jump with video and still pictures, a videographer dedicated to you will join you on your skydive. Some dropzones will only have the tandem instructor attach a camera to his hand to accomplish this. We feel that this compromises safety, as well as giving you a substandard video, and thats why you always get a dedicated, experienced, and talented videographer with your tandem skydive at Skydive Long Island!

Video:
We would definitely reccommend you get your first jump on video. There will only be this one first jump. You WANT a souvenir. You will never forget your first jump, none of us ever do, BUT Skydiving is such a high speed and intense experience, many people do not recall a lot of the details of their jump. In the years to come, you can share the experience with your friends and family.

After The Jump:
There will be an individual critique by your Tandem Master. Tandem Jump Certificate is presented with hearty Congratulations. Don't forget to visit manifest again to pick up a T shirt to remember the occasion!
