Skydive Grand Bend

Frequently Asked Questions

You must be at least 16 years old with parental consent or 18 years old with a valid photo ID.

Yes. We can take tandem skydivers up to about 225 pounds.

No, we won’t. We won’t cancel your jump ahead of time in case the weather is better than forecasted (which happens a LOT!).

ALSO: Just because it may be poor weather where you live doesn’t mean it’s bad at the drop zone! Weather can change a lot in just a few miles, so don’t cancel for weather without checking with us first. It may be pouring at your home but perfect at the drop zone! Call ahead if you’re concerned about weather.

  • Being over the weight limit (see above)
  • Being under 16 years of age
  • Being under the influence of drugs/alcohol
  • Inclement weather (rain/excessive wind/clouds)

Wear comfortable, relatively close-fitting clothing for the current weather. Please also wear running shoes/other athletic shoes, flip flops and unsuitable footwear is not advised.

It’s a good idea to eat a light meal or snack before you head to the drop zone. Please bring hydrating beverages, packed lunch or snacks to the dropzone as well.

Sorry, but no. Cameras are great fun, but they are also a great distraction that can compromise safety. This is why we only shoot video/photos on tandem skydives with experienced videographers who are accustomed to handling both skydiving and a camera at the same time. The Canadian Sport Parachuting Association recommends that no skydiver carry a camera on a jump until they have at least 200 skydives, and we follow this recommendation. You are more than welcome to use any camera gear you want on the ground before and after your jump.
 
 

  • Pets: No pets other than service animals are permitted in operating areas, but they are welcome in the parking lot and RV areas. Any service animals in operating areas must be leashed and adult-supervised at all times. Clean up after them.
  • Please ensure that children and pets/service animals are directly supervised by a responsible adult at all times. If you are skydiving, please have a responsible adult supervising your children/service animal while you are jumping to ensure they stay safe and do not injure anyone or their life-saving equipment (even unintentionally).
