Ready for the ultimate adrenaline rush? Take on an unforgettable 10,000ft tandem skydive at Chatteris Airfield near Cambridge and experience the thrill of freefall over the stunning Cambridgeshire countryside. After a full safety briefing at the aerodrome, you will board a high-speed aircraft and climb to 10,000ft, securely strapped to your qualified instructor. Then comes the moment that changes everything — stepping out of the plane and plunging into an incredible freefall at around 125mph. It’s an unbeatable rush that has to be felt to be believed. At 5,000ft, your instructor deploys the parachute, giving you time to relax and soak up breathtaking views as you glide back down to the Chatteris Airfield drop zone, where friends and family can watch your landing from a designated viewing area. Want to relive every second? Pre-book a professional freefall cameraman to capture your entire experience, so you can take the memories home with you. If you are ready to tick skydiving off your bucket list, this 10,000ft tandem jump is the perfect way to do it.
