  

Ballooning and parachuting experiences:
Hot Air Ballooning
Drifting across a gently unfolding landscape give a brand new perspective of the English countryside. Light winds and good visibility are required and most flights take place around dawn or dusk. On landing you will be presented with a certificate by the pilot and enjoy a champagne celebration. Flights last about an hour and are available for one or two people in many locations across the UK.
1 person: £130.00
2 people: £250.00
Parachuting
1000, 2000, 3000, CHECK.... these words will ring in your head at the end of two days of intensive training as you launch yourself out of the jump plane at 2,000 feet. You won't forget to keep your legs together either as you come into land. In between you will have undergone one of the most exhilarating experiences possible - seconds of noise, buffeting and pure adrenaline dramatically transformed to peace and tranquillity as the canopy opens and allows you to drift gently to earth. The course is designed to give you an introduction to the sport. Having completed your first jump where your parachute opened by a static line, you can progress onto freefall by your sixth jump! The course is ideal for groups so please contact us for details. There is also plenty of accommodation locally, from a sleeping bag in a bunkhouse to a suite at a nearby 4 star hotel.
1 person: £225.00
Tandem Freefall Parachuting
After arrival at the club you are introduced to your instructor who conducts a few minutes of briefing. Shortly after you board the plane and during the climb to 10,000 feet you are securely strapped to the instructor. Without further ado you are launched into 30 second of freefall before the canopy open and you drift to the ground.
1 person: £240.00
Paragliding
To fly like a bird... Paragliding is one of the most exciting yet probably the least expensive of all the air sports. Paragliders are, as the name suggests, a combination of parachute and glider, modern developments in design and materials have resulted in an aircraft that is both phenomenally light and yet possesses a glide ratio rivalling that of hang gliders. The flying skills required demand no strength, only adroit handling that will evolve from precise instruction. Paragliders can be hill-soared much in the same way as hang gliders and cross country flight is also feasible - the UK record is currently 100+ miles.
10 Minute single tandem flight: £ 39.00
Introductory Courses
1 day: £ 95.00
2 days: £158.00
Bungee Jumping
To prove that we do cater for all tastes...it has to be Bungee! What could be worse than seeing the earth coming up to meet you at 250 feet per second from less than 100 feet - that's 0.05 seconds until impact! Single bungee jumps are available in London only.
1 person: £ 59.00
