Skydiving > Safety

Last updated on 7th December 2010

We could not successfully operate our business if the skydiving centres we use did not adhere to a strict set of safety practices. All of the skydiving centres we use are affiliated to the British Parachute Association (BPA), the most safety conscious skydiving association in the world. Some element of risk will always be present in any activity and this risk must be accepted by all participants.

All of the equipment used is maintained and serviced by qualified BPA riggers. Equipment is checked in several stages before your skydive: when the parachute is packed, when the parachute is put on, a check from an instructor on the ground and another check before you leave the aircraft.

In the very rare occurrence that the main parachute fails to open correctly your instructor will take the necessary steps and will open the reserve parachute if required.
