Our Turbine Aircraft are specifically designed for skydiving, reaching altitude quickly and quietly. They have an average cruise speed of 130 knots (nautical miles per hour) and climb at a rate of 85 knots, covering approximately 1,500 feet per minute. As the air becomes more dense the aircraft climbs at a marginally slower rate.
These aircraft are able to descend at a staggering 4,000ft per minute.

12000ft return 14 minutes
9000ft return 10 minutes
Our high performance, rectangular, zero porosity fabric canopies are designed for soft openings and maximum maneuverability. The elliptical rectangular cell canopy is a lift producing wing which has a forward speed of approximately 30kph allowing accuracy and ease of landing. The canopy ranges from 330 to 400 square feet.
The harness container is exactly that, housing all components - the main canopy, reserve and drogue chute. A qualified packer arranges and packs all components; canopies, lines and riser, to enable each part operates in a specific order ensuring reliable canopy deployment.
NZONE Tandem skydive systems are manufactured by Strong Enterprises who were the first company to develop the dual harness tandem system over 20 years ago.
