Loved it!. My instructor explained everything and they all had a chat and laugh whilst waiting to get in the plane which put us all at ease. Thorough talk through of what would happen and on the way down Aaron was pointing out thing to look at and having a chat to make sure I was ok. I paid for the photos and probably wouldn’t do that again (35 of the 65 were of other people getting off the plane before us, so no use to me) there’s a few I’ll print and I guess if you’re only going to do it once then it’s good to have a memento but it’s a lot of money for what I felt was not many photos actually of my dive. Saying that the bloke taking them was lovely and had a good laugh and put my mind at rest about the jump, he was thorough and kept chatting and looking over but I don’t seem to have any photos from a lot of time I thought he was filming/taking pics.

Did a tandem skydive in June on the day of the Kings birthday which meant there was an hours delay for his flyover. Would have liked to have been informed in advance as it meant all my friends and family who had other plans for after were waiting and running late. My tandem person was nice and friendly but did keep over explaining everything which I didn’t need to know and it gave the dive experience quite a serious and regimented feel to it. I ended up focusing more on the “drill” of everything and getting things in the right sequence that It meant during the free fall I was focusing more on the instructions I had to follow than actually just enjoying the free fall out of the plane. Would have preferred someone with more banter. Others in my group didn’t have all those things explained which meant they could focus on themselves and live in that moment. I don’t think I was strapped in properly around my waist either and this was evident on the video. The video quality was average, angles not great compared to others videos from different videographers I have seen from the day and the stills were just screenshots of the video so not worth the extra £40. Also there were some parts of my dive that were not on the video. I heard other videographers were encouraging people to make hand gestures and having fun in the air, which I would have liked as it would have made my experience more fun. I enjoyed the day because I was with friends and doing it for a good cause but wouldn’t say it was amazing. Felt like I needed to go back up and do it again, just so I can re do the free fall and enjoy it without concentrating on the drill of what do and when.

The freefall part of the jump was excellent. Unfortunately, when the chute was deployed it felt like hitting a wall. This was followed by a minute of bliss as we glided to earth. Once we started to spiral a little I began to feel nauseous, which persisted for over an hour after we landed. No-one's fault but my own, I know, but it did spoil my experience. Also my neck ached for 24 hours and my chest was bruised from the harness. I might try it again sometime, take a motion sickness tablet, and pad up. Don't know what I'd do about the neck thing though. My daughter jumped at the same time and had none of these problems. She is about 50lbs. lighter and 30 years younger, though

I am proud to say that I completed my third tandem skydive at Beccles yesterday & it was awesome! I did my first two with The Red Devils near Salisbury earlier this year. The views were great on the coast yesterday. Sadly, I'm too old to complete the AFF course in the UK, so I will be forced to venture abroad to Dubai in Nov/Dec to get this done & allow me to go solo. Thanks UK parachuting for a great jump yesterday -Jo Hudson, age 59

Having had to cancel my first allocated date for tandem skydiving due to windy weather I was able to rebook it for early October 2023 and the weather couldn’t have been any better if tried any other day!! What a beautiful day that was??? Being scaredy-cat of heights I did make up in air and back on land safely and it was due to having a very reassuring and encouraging people, Callum, Tom and my son, who was doing his jump at the same time. Thank you everyone for your support, encouragement and reassurance. Could not have got through without them. Keep up the good work Callum and Tom 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

I got treat to 15,000 jump for my 50th so I bought my partner this for his 50th. Me and my partner looked at the guys watches that said how high you were and it was nearly 7000ft. We got told to move forward to jump out. We paid extra to jump from 10,000 ft but everyone on the plane all jumped out together. As soon as we jumped out of the plane the parachute went up straight away, so no free falling which was a big part of why we paid extra. We felt a bit ripped off and deflated, he had not done a skydive before and I said the free falling is amazing.
