DropZone!!??!!Ski Diving. This is one activity which will definitely get your adrenaline pumping!!
Tandem Skydiving is the best choice for those who have decided to jump for the first time. You are connected via a harness to an experienced skydiver ("tandem master"). You can experience total exhilaration while freefalling through the fathomless sky at 120mph for roughly 3 mins, as in my case. At most places you can even video-shoot your jump.
How it all works-- A group of skydivers will fly in an aircraft to an altitude of around 13,000 feet, and free-fall for a period of time before activating a parachute to slow the landing down to safe speeds. Once the parachute is opened, you can control your direction and speed with cords that are attached to the parachute, and aim for the landing site.
Skydivers are always looking for something new to do in the air. Another crazy thing people end up doing is Stuff Jump. In these jumps the skydivers jump out with some object. Rubber raft jumps are popular, where the jumpers sit in a rubber raft. At a certain height the jumpers break off from the object and deploy their parachutes, leaving it to crash into the ground at a very high speed.There are some variations in the types of jumps which include Wingsuit flying, Formation skydiving, Skysurfing; in which the skydiver wears a board attached to his or her feet and performs surfing aerobatics during freefall.
There are also options for Indoor skydiving available at various places. It enables you to do all kinds of acrobatics and experience the air hitting your body, all in a vertical tunnel with a huge blower on the floor.
If you take this as a passion and want your name to be in the records, check these SkyDiving records.
