The
Pinjarra Drop Zone: Enjoys spectacular aerial views along the
WA coast. The view ranges from
beyond the city of Perth, out to Rottnest Island, Garden Island and as far south as
Bunbury and jumping is available 7 days a week throughout the year. A
visit to the dropzone is strongly recommended to enable us to
show you around the training facility. This is so you can meet
the people you are about to do the most exciting thing in your
life with and most importantly to see some parachutes in the
sky before doing your first jump.
Pinjarra is approximately 80km south of
Perth and only takes about 30 minutes drive from Armadale on
the South West Highway (HWY 20). Or, if you're coming from
Mandurah only 15 minutes along the Pinjarra Road. Turn at
the Premier Hotel onto the Williams - Dwellingup Road
and the Academy is located about 4 kms drive on your right.
The Perth Drop Zone:
Several approved locations around
the the metropolitan area provided the best views of
everything without having to drive out of the city.
Bookings depart from central Perth or rendezvous at Jandakot
airport with a free transfer after the jump. Tandem
jumps and experienced licensed jumpers only with the minimum
altitude being 10,000ft.
Value for Money: The
Academy's locations
also benefits from the fact that they are at sea level (+21'), as
all aircraft measure their altitude from sea level. The maximum
altitude you can jump from, as a student doing AFF or Tandem,
is 14,000ft above sea level, which means when you step out of
one of our aircraft you get a true 14,000ft
skydive.
This is not the case for some of our
competitors that are located up on the Darling escarpment,
which puts them about 600ft above sea level before they
even get airborne. This means a jump from 14,000ft above sea
level with our competitors would only give you 13,400ft of
skydive at best.
* Weather and other conditions
may affect the view, cause delays or cancellations. The
Academy is very proud of its safety record and will not
conduct operations unless suitable criteria has been met as
determined by the Australian Parachute Federation's Operational
Regulations in conjunction with our own operating policy.
