I did the 15,000 feet skydive in July 09'. I was able to book in at late notice (half an hour ahead!) to take advantage of a blue sky afternoon.

January 05, 2009, Austria In November 2008 my sons and me travelled through New Zealand for 3 weeks. It was a fixed idea to make our first skydiving experience in New Zealand - but to do it in Wanaka was a coincident.

I chose Skydive Lake Wanaka for my 2nd jump and had a really great experience! The staff was very friendly and professional, my jumpmaster made me feel totally safe, was very nice and patient and explained the scenery on our way up which I really appreciated. The scenery including Mt Aspiring National park, mountains, Clutha river and the lakes was... more
