The tandem masters and instructors are highly experienced, but very friendly and forthcoming. Professionalism shows and a great atmosphere exists. It is definitely a good place to visit for a FJC, Tandem Jump or loads of fun jumps.

Hi Craig Yes our PAMAN wants to know if fatigue could have added to the chain of events of the double fatality which we had in Namibia in April. Matthias

Our local Parachute Association wants to know if jumpers and more specific tandem masters should be allowed to do only a certain amount of jumps per day. Like pilots may only fly for 8 hours a day. The question arose that tandem masters might get fatigued or the exposure to the high altitude of 10000 above ground (ground is 170 feet above sea level) and the lack of oxygen in the air at altitude might cause fatigue. Have any studies been done regarding this? Have any other parachute associations such limitations? Is this a valid question by our parachute association? Have any doctors looked at this? Please let me know if you have more information about this.

The Ground Rush Adventure / Skydive Swakopmund team has worked together since 1997 and most of our skydiving instructors have over 4000 jumps. Our team incorporates five Tandem Masters, two AFF Instructors, four Static Line Instructors, five Freefall Camera Men, two Pilots, Packers and Office Staff. We are 5 km from Swakopmund and have shuttle services available for pick up and drop offs.
