Thanks so much Damien (Damo M) and Jenny!!!

I found all the team members were really fantastic in their communication with each and every person present. It was great to see the additional time spent with our non-English speaking brothers and sisters and the immediate resources available for them to watch the information again in their language.

The team were very genuine in welcoming, supporting and encouraging us, which made the whole experience so much more memorable!!!

The skydive was anazing, but We felt like we could have paraglided down a little longer as it only took like 5 minutes after the parachute was released and we were told 10-15 minutes.

We wanted to go on the chair ride at Ruapehu sky field up to the cafe but it had been raining so the chair lift was not working and because of that the cafe was not open. When I look at this activity on the net it could have mentioned that these thing happen and to phone first. So we made that trip for nothing

Product rating:

The video was a bit expensive and not very long. would have been nice to have a lot move filming on the ground and to hear us talking before hand. The diver made it not as scary as it could have been so and as a first timer I appreciated that. In all a great experience.

Hi there,
what is the maximum weight for a tandem skydive? some sites say 115kg and others 100kg?

Comments

The maximum skydive weight is 100kg, although occasionally this can be slightly increased in good weather conditions. It depends on the pilots call on the day.

how old do you have to be to do the sky dive

Comments

There is no minimum age restriction for tandem skydiving in Taupo. Children under the age of 18 do have to be accompanied by a parent or guardian or have as signed letter from them. Children do need to fit a standard adult skydiving harness however, as there are no specific child harnesses. Each child will be assessed on a case by case basis with the skydive instructor prior to skydiving on the day to see if they are safe to skydive.

I just went scuba diving and my left ear did not equalize and it has been hurting the last few days but has gotten better recently. Is it alright to participate in skydiving

Comments

Sorry to hear about your year. People with ear problems from scuba diving can also have issues equalising when skydiving. It's not normally as bad as the pressure isn't usually as great as underwater but it may pay to check with your doctor or physician first to ensure you are ok to skydive in Taupo. If you are still unsure then you could opt for a lower altitude skydive as the pressure wont be as high on your ears. (ie. don't go for the 15000ft jump)

If you require return transfers from Rotorua for your skydive in Taupo the van will pick you up at 9am. If you are staying in Taupo then there are several pick ups during the day.

Hi guys. Was thinking of treating my 12 year old daughter to a jump. I would be jumping as well. Would we be able to see each other on the way down?

Comment by: Pete MacLeod on 2nd Aug 20 at 09:30

There is no age limit but we don’t encourage anyone under 10 years old. If you are under 18 years of age, you will need a parent or guardian to sign the consent form on your behalf. Young children are assessed on a case-by-case basis. It will depend on whether they can fit properly into the harness. You must be 17 years and above to do the 18,500ft jump.
