Tandem skydiving in Rodez, Aveyron
Frequently asked questions
What's the most intense moment of the jump?
Freefall. The transition from the aircraft door to terminal velocity is the peak adrenaline point, where you're fully exposed to the open sky before the parachute deploys and the ride smooths out.
Do you need to be afraid of heights to back out?
A fear of heights on the ground rarely translates to what you feel at altitude. Most first-time jumpers report that the scale of the open sky removes the usual height-fear triggers. Your tandem instructor manages the entire jump.
What does the 295 € price actually cover?
The fee includes all equipment, your tandem instructor, the aircraft flight, and the jump itself. Confirm directly with Chutelibre Dordogne whether a video or photo package is included or available as an add-on.
How long does the full experience take?
Plan for a half day on site. That includes the safety briefing, gear fitting, the flight to altitude and the jump itself. Actual freefall duration depends on exit altitude, which you can confirm with the operator at booking.
