Sorry you can't use your camera. We operate under our governing body British Skydiving, which require personnel to have 200 jumps in order to operate camera gear in freefall.

Hi SurrySun, this is a very common misconception in skydiving. When the parachute is deployed you do not shoot up, it appears like this because your camera man keeps falling, giving the allusion of you going up. You are still falling, just a lot slower. In regards to your medical question, Please call the team in the office so they can go over all the details with you, their number is 01722 568705. It may be something you are able to do but you will need to have a conversation with your GP and get them to sign off on the BPAs medical form, the ladies in the office will be able to send you this form directly. Lorraine and the GoSkydive team.

Hi Laura Q, Scottp19700 is right, the taster tandem is our 7,000ft skydive. This gives you around 5-10 seconds of free fall. Lorraine and the GoSkydive Team.

Hi Debbie, Please call the team on 01722 568705 with your details so we can look into this ASAP.

Thanks for your question. Whilst temperatures in March and April are not a warm as peak summer there is an improved visibility on clear days which is well worth a few extra warm layers.

Hi Jo. If this is your first ever skydive then a tandem jump is ideal. GoSkydive are the UK's specialists for first time jumpers so you're definitely coming to the right place. Depending on whereabouts you are in Cheltenham, GoSkydive is about a 90 minute drive. Hope to see you soon Rachael

Thanks for your query, prices vary depending on what sort of video and or stills photography you would like. Prices start from £99 for footage filmed by camera mounted to the wrist of your fully qualified instructor- this gives you a 'close-up and personal perspective'. Alternatively one of our camera crew can skydive with you, this gives a much wider perspective incorporating your instructor and the plane. The cost for this is £129. To see the different types of video footage visit the videos section of the GoSkydive website. The team will be more than happy to discuss the options with you on the phone if you wish.

Hello, I did my jump in February. the first thing that you do when you get there is an induction which talks you through the whole process and shows you some videos. They tell you then that you can scream/swear/shout as loud as you want because the noise from the air rushing by masks it. It doesn't even get picked up in the video if you scream! So no need to worry about your instructors ear drums! Enjoy your jump!!
