Making your day run smoothly
At GoSkydive, customers from Wiltshire and across the UK are taken through a customer journey that cannot be matched by any other skydiving centre in the UK.
We are the only centre that specializes in parachute jumps for first time skydivers. But what does that mean? It means that we only do tandem skydives – you won’t be competing for time and space with sports jumpers – the whole day is built around you and other first-time skydivers. We’ll consider your travel time and try and get you booked in later in the day, we’ll keep you updated with weather reports to, where possible, avoid unnecessary delays. There will be a briefing within 30 minutes of your arrival, you’ll receive full training in a simulated environment and there will be a whole team of people on hand to support you at all times.
Training and Safety
GoSkydive is the only dropzone in the UK to offer all customers specialist training on the body positions for tandem skydiving in a simulated tandem skydive training environment. Our centre is fully approved by the British Parachute Association.
The view to Wiltshire
The view from the skydive in Salisbury to the rest of Wiltshire is visible on clear days. Ashton Keynes to the far north of Wiltshire can be seen when weather conditions allow. As you descend from the jump height, you’ll be able to make out Salisbury Cathedral beneath you, Cranbourne Chase to the west, and to the north, all of Wiltshire laid out to the north.
A tandem sky diving experience is the safest and least stressful form of Skydiving for the first timer. You are secured to a highly qualified tandem instructor who will control the freefall, deploy the parachute and bring you into land.
There are very few limitations to participation in a tandem skydive. You can find out more about the pre-jump criteria here.
Not only do people admire your courage in jumping out of a plane from 10 or 15,000ft and give generously to your cause – but you get to have the most amazing life enhancing experience. GoSkydive works with hundreds of charities across the UK doing thousands of Charity Skydives each year and here is just one of them – Take a look at Zoe Ball’s jump for MNDA here.
If you do decide to do a tandem skydive for charity – you’ll be taking part in a life changing activity guaranteed to draw people to sponsorship for charity. GoSkydive works with more affiliated charities in the UK than any other skydiving company and in 2015 helped to raise a staggering half a million pounds for good causes.
