See the Perth CBD, Swan River, Botanic Garden and more from the skies! Amazed offers a range of skydiving activities in Perth, for loads of breathtaking backdrops during your jump. From tandem skydiving along the coast to solo jumps over the outback, you'll be spoilt for choice. Take your adrenaline seeking to the edge and make lifelong memories with Amazed.
A tandem skydive involves two people jumping out of an airplane, strapped together throughout the experience. The person at the back is the trained instructor who will guide the second skydiver at the front (usually a first timer) through the entire jump. This means the exit, free-fall, piloting the canopy and a smooth landing. The instructor is always a licensed skydiver with a high degree of experience, so you will be in safe hands throughout the tandem skydive!
A solo skydive is for the true adrenaline seekers! This style of jump entails leaping from a plane, at one with the air and atmosphere, for a free fall of up to one minute before floating down to earth under your parachute canopy. Unlike a tandem skydive, divers leap without an instructor strapped to them to guide the landing. When you skydive solo you will achieve the ultimate personal thrill and feel at one with the skies. Naturally, you are required to reach a degree of skydiving experience before braving a skydive solo.
That there’s no possibly no feeling quite like it! Following the initial wave of adrenaline and fear, free-falling at 200 kilometres per hour is guaranteed to induce screams, goosebumps and sharpened senses. Skydiving, whether solo or tandem, is a thrilling rush like nothing you’ve experienced before. Naturally, like any other high impact activity your fitness levels and medical condition should be in tiptop shape to comfortably withstand these sensory pressures.
Wear comfortable lightweight clothing (you’ll be decked out with a skydiving suit and groovy goggles too). Amazed also suggests wearing light footwear, such as a good runner, that will have you looking and feeling the part.
The length of your skydiving experience can vary depending on the chosen location and how high you jump. For example, if you pick a 15,000ft jump you'll experience a thrilling free-fall lasting up to one full minute after which the parachute opens and you float back down the ground. In total, you should allow a couple of hours for your skydive in Perth to cover checking in, the safety briefing, flight and of course the dive!
