If you love the feeling that you get from an adrenaline rush and if participating in dangerous activities just for the thrill is something you don't even think twice about, then you are probably someone that loves extreme sports with a passion. And when it comes to extreme, there is no sport more dangerous and thrilling than skydiving. Skydiving is a sport enjoyed by many extreme sport enthusiasts. But because it is so dangerous, training for a solo jump for the first time is extensive and time-consuming. That's why so many first time skydivers choose to jump tandem rather than solo. Tandem skydiving means that you jump while harnessed to a certified and experienced skydiving instructor. The instructor will guide a first time jumper through the entire jump, from exiting the aircraft, to freefall, to parachute deployment, and finally through the landing. Because your certified instructor is with you through the entire jump, the training for a first tandem jump is minimal. You can experience the thrill of skydiving easily without having to go through extensive training. However, there is some training required for a tandem jump. You will be taught how to properly exit the aircraft, how to do maneuvers in freefall, and how to deploy the canopy in case your instructor is unable to do so. However, extreme sport enthusiasts that wish to experience their first skydiving experience without being harnessed to an instructor can choose to complete the extensive training for either a static line or accelerated free fall jump.
