Parachuting is an air sport in which you leave the aircraft and come down under control on a parachute.
Recreational jumps are most often made in tandem, together with an experienced instructor.
The experience takes in the climb in the aircraft, the free fall and the controlled descent under the canopy.
Parachuting brings together adventure, concentration and a sense of freedom in the air you get nowhere else.
