<p>Skydiving usually requires a small but reliable aircraft like the Cessna 182, which typically climbs to no more than 12,000 feet. This is quite enough to enjoy free fall for a minute and have the time to open a reserve parachute if necessary. However, sports jumps can also be performed from high altitudes (up to 18,000 feet), but only when using oxygen equipment.</p>
<p>If you are a total newbie and it is your first solo jump, you’ll need to spend a considerable amount of time in the classroom first. Most schools will put you through a classroom induction of around 4-6 hours before your first solo jump.</p>
<p>If you opt for an indoor skydiving experience, here’s how it works:</p>
<p>A useful strategy that works wonders if you are afraid of heights, is to set small goals to release your internal pressure. Your first goal should not be to skydive directly but to just book a skydive.</p>

<p>As you fall back to earth at speeds of 100mph and more, you’ll get to enjoy the most spectacular view in the world. Eventually, it is time to open the canopy. The tandem master will deploy the main parachute which will open overhead as the rush of the wind settles.</p>

<li><strong>Why Should You Make Your First Skydive?</strong></li>
<p>When you are at altitude, it’s time to jump! From 14,000 feet, you can expect to fall between 55.45 and 61.14 seconds, depending on the parachute opening weight, formations, weather, and other variables.</p>
