Johannesburg Skydiving Club

You need to be 16 years old with parental consent and 18 years without parental consent.

We can take younger children for a skydive. It is quite an overwhelming experience for them, so they would need to be prepared for the jump. They are all different, so it is best to have a discussion with the manifest officer, or come check out the dropzone with them to assess their mental capacity for the experience.

Yes. We have a legal weight restriction of 100kg’s fully clothed. This is a non-negotiable weight limit. There is typically no minimum weight, only a minimum age (16 or 18 years old).

Since sport skydiving requires both mental and physical fitness, even the slightest physical defect can post a safety threat. A qualified medical practitioner’s note is required, stating that the students physical or mental defect will not interfere with their safety during a skydive. The Chief Instructor can overrule the note from a medical practitioner.

Skydiving takes about 5-7 minutes from jump to landing, plus 30 minutes or so in the airplane beforehand. It may not sound like a long time, but with so many new sensations happening throughout, your body will go into superhero mode.

The detailed costs with the various camera options are outlined under Pricing. A non-refundable deposit is required before bookings will be accepted.

Yes absolutely! A certificate is issued after your first jump.
