Arrival
Training
Tandem fall

Upon arrival at the Skydive Byron Bay Dropzone, visitors are greeted by a friendly team of experienced instructors. You will be asked to sign some waivers and complete basic formalities before heading for your tandem jump. 

Your instructor will take you through a 30-minute training session where you will learn about techniques and positions you will need to follow while diving. You will also meet your jumpmaster during this time. This training is brief because your jumpmaster will mostly control the fall. 

After the training, you will be secured to your diving equipment along with your jumpmaster and flown to 15,000 ft. Once you dive from the plane, you will free-fall for about 60 seconds until the jumpmaster deploys the chute. You will then glide down slowly for the next 5-7 minutes, allowing you to soak in the picturesque landscape of Byron Bay.
