Discover the incredible sensation of a Tandem skydive, leaving the aircraft at 13,000 ft and freefalling for nearly a minute, harnessed to the Tandem Master. He will open the parachute and then fly you both back to the airfield.
Perfect for experiencing the extreme sport of skydiving. No previous skydiving experience necessary!

You want to find out what free fall is all about but you don't know anything about this sport yet? Don't worry! That's the reason why we have the so called "Tandem Jumps", the fastest and easiest way to make a skydive. Anybody can do this kind of jump, at any age* or physical condition**, all this because the responsibility of the whole skydive is not mainly depending on you.

So what happens on a Tanddem Skydive?

You will jump from a plane at 4'000 meters attached to an experienced skydiver with thousands of previous jumps. You will experience approximately one minute of freefall and then fly under a canopy that is especially designed to carry 2 people. All you need is to come and enjoy your Tandem Skydive in sunny Spain! Previous experience of skydiving or skydiving courses are not necessary!!!

Have you made up your mind yet?

First of all you must book the time and date you would like to do your Tandem Skydive. Remember that Extreme Sports Cafe's Drop Zone just outside Madrid is open daily from 9.00 to sunset. We skydive there 365 days a year and to book all you have to do is visit our online store and book your Tandem online.

Once you have arrived the tandem master will give you a small briefing in your own language (10 minutes), in which he will explain what the tandem skydive is going to be about and give you pre-jump instruction.

The next thing will be to get geared up. You are given a suit, a helmet, harness, goggles, and gloves. Please bring comfortable clothes and comfortable trainers, or similar with you.

The plane will climb for approx. 15 minutes all the way up to 12,500 ft., which is the altitude you will finally jump from.

During the tandem skydive you are attached to an instructor (who is always on top). Your only responsibility is to enjoy this unique experience and admire the world underneath your feet as you skydive over Spain.

You`ll enjoy the free fall, which lasts about one minute! At a speed of about 200 km/h you'll feel as if you are floating in the air, or perhaps falling very fast! But either way your Tandem Skydive experience will change your life...

At 1500 meters the instructor will open the parachute and from there on you will enjoy 6-10 minutes under canopy untill landing. Your friends will be waiting for you to share the experience.

What do I have to do on a Tandem Skydive?
Enjoy the feeling of freefall and learn about skydiving. ;-)

What happens on a Tandem Skydive?
After some brief but comprehensive ground training you will be taken to altitude in a plane (typically 12,000 feet) and strapped to the chest of a fully qualified Tandem Master. Both Tandem Master and you will leap from the plane and go skydiving, accompanied by a cameraman. The 45 second freefall allows you to experience skydiving and the opportunity to interact with the cameraman. It will also change you forever!

Safely back on the ground after having had a chance to reflect on the skydive during a canopy ride back to the dropzone you will get to relive your experience with a *video of the whole experience.
Perhaps later you will take the next step... and become a skydiver!

A Tandem Jump not Extreme enough for you.... Why not try an Introduction to Free Fall?

Hey... I am thinking about AFF and want a bit more...
Or... I want more than just a Tandem....
Why not try an IFF in Thailand, or Spain? Do a Tandem Jump as well as your first 'Solo Skydive' for £350! You can take the stuff you learn and carry it over to a full AFF too...
