5.00I’ve done lots of adrenaline inducing things in my life but this one wins, hand down, as the most exhilarating. My tandem instructor Philip (from Sweden?) was absolutely brilliant - just the right balance of professional guidance with calm authority to make my first ever jump both safe and exciting, in equal measures. In fact, I thought all the staff there, in whatever capacity, were excellent - I image it must be very difficult at times to enthuse over one person’s skydive when they’re involved in dozens (hundreds ?) a day. But everyone there seemed genuinely happy . . . it certainly helped that it was a cloudless sky when we jumped out at 18,000ft !!! 80 seconds of freefall was over in the blink of an eye but Philip kindly let me take the controls (obviously closely monitored) so I could assist in bringing us down. Had there been immediate availability, I would have paid to do it again but sadly I had to get back down to Whangarei that afternoon.

5.00Great experience, professional team and Prashant, with whom I jumped, was very cool. I took the gold pack with photos/videos, the offer is a bit expensive but worth it! Nearly 300 photos taken + a complete video montage of the flight and jump. I recommend 100%!
Still Fizzing!

5.00Well that was unexpected!!! So, so, so outstanding. Had such a great experience jumping out of a perfectly good aeroplane for the first time. The team were amazing, my instructor Prashant was fantastic, we chatted away and this put my nerves to rest. Great views of Northland and the most amazing feeling jumping out. Highly recommend this.
The best experience ever

5.00Rhys is a champion, i mean this guy could just as easily be a moviestar! We had heaps of fun, the freefall was EPIC, the entire team there, with Paige in the helm, just AWESOME. I have dealt with MANY skydive companies in New Zealand, and none of em gets CLOSE to these guys for service and friendliness! Thanks Team, Kia Ora, Wayne from Haka Tours
Controlled falling. Such fun.
