SKYDIVING IN ROTORUA

The impact on your life that the act you are now contemplating will have can not be overstated.

The personal challenge is immense.  Immense, because the only thing preventing you from enjoying this, one of the most primal like shaping experiences, is your own mind.

You must choose.  To go through life able to say 'yes, I did it', or to go through life knowing that you had the opportunity, but you turned it down and walked away from becoming the complete person you could have been.

YOUR SKYDIVE

Our skydive host will assist you to gear up and you will be briefed by one of our Tandem Masters.  Your flight to altitude will take you high above the Rotorua thermal region, where you will have a birds eye view of the dramatic geothermal activity and forests.  Jumping directly above our Dropzone you will experience freefall of up to 60 seconds before your Tandem Master deploys the parachute and together you glide back to earth.  The canopy ride takes approximately 5 minutes.  Please allow 2 hours for the entire experience.

'Why jump out of a perfectly

good

Aeroplane?
              

Why climb a great mountain

that does not know you exist? 

Why run a marathon?  Deep in

the human consciousness is a

pervasive need for a logical

universe that makes sense. 

But the real universe is always

one step beyond logic.  We do

these things.  It is something

deep within us, the need to feed

our voracious appetite for

danger and glory.

It is the spirit of man
