Make an Epic
Skydive |
Skydive
Everest or Make a Tandem HALO Jump in Tennessee
When Ed Ward made his incredible Tandem HALO jump at the
West TennesseeSkydiving
Center last month, the temperature at altitude was an icy 40 below zero. Even in summer, it's ridiculously cold at 30,000 feet.
Thankfully, skydivers aren't in the cold
air for long. Thin air increases free fall speed so it's not long before jumpers reach warmer air. During Ed's incredible high-altitude jump adventure, he reached free fall
speeds in excess of 200 mph. One of the highlights of a tandem HALO
jump is extended free fall time. You can see Ed's HALO Jump
video on YouTube.
The Halojumper drop zone is just outside Memphis, Tennessee. The best months for jumping tend to be May through
November, making this the perfect time to schedule your high-falling adventure. In terms of weather, the best months for HALO jumping are May through November. No prior jump experience
is needed, but some health and weight restrictions apply. For date availability and additional details, email or call 800-644-7382.
We suggest following
up a summer HALO jump with a trip to Nepal in October for an
incredible Everest Skydive. Both tandem and solo jumps are
offered at one of the world's highest drop zones. Our recommended 11 day, 10 night Everest Skydive Adventure begins and ends in Kathmandu and sells for
$25,000 US. The adventure kicks off October 29th and includes two tandem skydives, trekking, tours, lodging, guide services, video and more.
(Experienced solo jumpers receive an additional practice jump.) The itinerary can be customized to include a trek to base camp and/or additional
skydives. Non-jumping guests are welcome for an additional charge. Call or email for more info.
