The team at Black Night Skydiving are very professional. At all points of the experience they keep you informed and put you at ease. Starting off with a very friendly check in before chilling in the comfortable lounge area until the initial safety briefing. All questions and worries and covered in the safety briefing. Next you wait for your name to be called and meet your tandem instructor and the team member shooting your video. Nate and Ben were excellent instructors, talked me through everything from getting suited up, jumping on the plane, what was happening as the plane neared the jump height and what to do at each stage of the jump. Also happy just to help you stay nice and calm and check in on you at numerous points during the experience. The video is well worth paying the money for, you get a few great verison of the video and some excellent photos to remember your day. The jump itself is brilliant. An amazing thrill as you leap out the plane and freefall towards 5000ft. The deep breathing tips come in very helpful during the last few seconds as you freefall before the parachute opens up and you get amazing views during your decent. Again Nate was excellent pointing out all the local landmarks, checking in on how I was doing and reminding me about the landing procedure. Coming in to land is a thrill as well, but everyone on our jump had a nice gentle landing and the instructors are in full control. A quick chat on video about your experience then back to the centre to get out of your kit pick up your certificate and head home or stay and watch the next group jump. Overall an amazing experience I would recommend to anyone.
