What’s the weight limit for skydiving? 18 stone or 114kg<\/b> fully clothed is the maximum weight for a tandem skydive novice. The weight limit set for tandem skydiving<\/a> is for your – and your instructor’s – safety<\/b> and takes into consideration the essential equipment and accessories you need for a safe jump and landing.<\/p>\n

At GoSkydive, safety is at the heart of everything we do<\/strong>, and weight is one of the many factors we take into consideration to make your experience as safe and enjoyable as possible.<\/p>\n

As the UK’s tandem skydive specialists, we have the knowledge, experience and highly skilled instructors to be able to jump with novices up to 18 stone or 114kg – that’s 2 stone or 12.70kg heavier than the industry standard!<\/p>\n

\"weight<\/a><\/p>\n

We’ve jumped with all shapes and sizes – including 3 members of Salisbury’s Rugby Club who weighed in at a total of over 50 stone! So, if you’re over 15 stone, get in touch with us to check your suitability to jump. As with all<\/b> our tandem skydive novices, an instructor will assess each individual on the day of the jump to make a final safety decision.<\/p>\n

As a result of higher operational costs there is a surcharge for tandem skydive jumpers over 15 stone or 95kg. Surcharges are: 15-16 stone: \u00a310 per person, 16-17 stone: \u00a320 per person and 17-18 stone: \u00a330 per person.<\/p>\n
