Des Moines Tandem Skydive

Feel the thrill of free falling with the comfort of being attached to a knowledgeable instructor. You jump from 9,000 feet above the ground, then proceed to free-fall for around 40 seconds. After your instructor deploys the parachute, you make enjoyable turns through the air, enjoying the scenic Iowa landscape, for around 5 minutes. After that, you’ll make a soft landing on the ground.

It only takes a half of an hour of training to be on your way to your first tandem jump, and the experience of a lifetime. For your own safety, you must weight 240 lbs or less and be at least 18 years old to jump tandem. The jump will take around three hours on the weekdays and a half day on the weekends.
