Has anyone done a skydiving experience in Queenstown...?

 

 

 

Is it worth it?

 

Whats the process?

 

 

 

Any thoughts welcome?

  • put on parachute
  • get in  plane
  • wait until desired altitude is reached
  • jump out
  • 😉




Sometimes I use big words I don't always fully understand in an effort to make myself sound more photosynthesis.

There are so many options involving jumping off or out of something in Queenstown its not funny,  Google is your friend

 

There are a number of options from the full on "jump out of a plane" through to paragliding i.e  "jump off a tall mountain"  . heck you can even do it now with out leaving the ground or going outside...

For added protection in case I'm too doo la la in my dotage to speak for myself:

 

  • read last will and testament - section referring to full disinheritance of any person who buys me a parachute jump for any of my birthdays past my 80th

 I did a tandem para-gliding experience in QT a few years ago, it was a great experience - and I have done both solo parachuting and gliding.  Hard to beat the scenery there for the overall thrill.  Thoroughly recommended
