Zeemax 0 #1 April 1, 2004 Hey all, wheres the cheapest place in the UK to make a tandem jump, and how much? I've got a good friend who wants to jump, but the prices are putting her off. websites aren't offering a great deal of info. thanks all Phoenix Fly - High performance wingsuits for skydiving and BASE Performance Designs - Simply brilliant canopies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vt1977 0 #2 April 2, 2004 Check Empuriabrava's website... www.skyrats.com Last time I looked into it, it was actually cheaper to fly to Empuria for a long weekend and do a tandem with video and stills than it was to do the same in the UK! Hey... it's an option... Another option is to look into doing the jump for charity - not sure how much money she'd have to raise though. Roughly double the cost of the jump I think... but then it's free to her. hth Vicki Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TrickyDicky 0 #3 April 2, 2004 I know if you book in advance at peterlee you can get a tandem for £198. Depends if you wanna go all up north though UK Skydiver for all your UK skydiving needs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vt1977 0 #4 April 2, 2004 A tandem at Empuria is E150 before the end of May and E165 thereafter. Video and stills is a further E80 before the end of May and E84 thereafter… i.e. a maximum of E249 (approx £165) for a tandem after May including video and stills. Ever get the feeling we get ripped off in the UK? Vicki Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
