What does the activity consist of?

As you can see, every time you ascend 1000 meters, the light airplane will make a sound, like a beep, to tell you that the moment to jump is getting closer, and once you reach the 4000 meters, the door of the plane will open, and jump to the void with your instructor.

The free fall last approximately 60 seconds, and then, the parachute will open to carry out the slow descend for about 8-10 minutes at 20 km/h until landing. And all this with the Bay of Roses as the background. To the great release of adrenaline add the beauty of the sights, something that makes this activity more special. Next to the jump in Castellón, are the 2 places in Spain where you will jump with sea views.

You can include to your jump a pics report or an external video. The recording will start from the moment you are standing n the hanger, seconds before boarding the plane, and stop when landing. The photographer will jump with you, simultaneously, to record the whole experience as a third person point of view, and be able to record your face when falling 4000 meters down at 200 km/h.

What requirements are necessary to jump?
