Skydiving

Skydiving is probably what comes to the minds of most people when you say 'extreme sport'.

High adrenaline and not that expensive if you just want to do a tandam skydive.

Skydiving is becoming very popular for people looking for a extreme high.

Tandam Skydiving is when a rookie skydiver is strapped to an experienced skydiver. This lets anyone who wants to do a skydive who has no training attempt one. This will cost you around £120 for one short freefall jump.

Solo freefall requires the jumper to take a course. This lasts about 8 days, weather permitting, and costs around £1300. It consists of 8 jumps and on ground training. After you complete the course you will be able to do solo skydives.
