A question Tandem Instructors often get asked is, “Do you ever get bored of jumping?” 🪂

With 40,000 skydives and counting, including more than 26,000 tandems, we’ll let Instructor Phil’s expression give you the answer!

(Hint: No, they definitely don't get bored of it!) 😆

Sometimes you just want to jump out of a plane with your friends...AND a tube! 🤩💯

The Tully Tight A$$ Boogie crew understood the assignment.

Remember, tube jumps are heaps of fun but they also introduce factors that are different from more conventional skydives. Planning, awareness and a solid briefing are all part of the jump.

Want to give it a go? Chat to your DZSO first.
