CalendarImportant information

Minimum age limit for this experience is 16 (16 and 17 with parental/guardian consent). If you are 40 or over we will require a British Parachute Association Declaration of Fitness form to be signed and stamped by your GP before you can take part.

If you are over 50, you will not normally be accepted for this course. Maximum weight limit is 15 stones maximum, and your weight must be in proportion to your height. Weight limits do vary between centres, so please call us for advice.

CalendarHow many people can go?

RAPS courses are run with a maximum of 12 students. We will always try to ensure that friends can travel together in the same aircraft, but this is not always possible for safety reasons. Spectators are welcome on the day of the jump.

CalendarWhat if the weather is bad?

The training for the RAPS experience will take place regardless of the weather, however, the jump itself is extremely weather dependent. You will be advised of procedures specific to your chosen centre for weather checks and refresher training.
