Tandem Skydive: Cross Out Your Bucket List This Season!Posted by SkydiveVirginIslands on January 15th, 2016 Tandem skydive or tandem parachuting will easily be one of your most unforgettable experiences as it gives you the thrill of freefall skydiving minus the extensive training that solo divers need. In fact, all you need is a short briefing, and you can almost instantly be strapped in and jump from thousands of feet up and enjoy an adrenaline-fuelled free fall at 120 miles per hour. The best part—you land unscathed with the help of an expert, professional jumper, who will be with you and walk you through the entire process, from your briefing to your freefall and your landing. If you are looking for a unique experience this season, cross tandem skydive off your bucket list as you visit the US Virgin Islands. This Caribbean must-see is the place to be if you want to experience paradise. St. Thomas, St. John, and St. Croix are definite musts. There is no scarcity of fun things to do in these places, but if an adrenaline-pumping experience is what you are after, tandem skydive is one of the best things you can try out. Not only will this be one of your bravest pursuits to date, but it is also one that will give you some of the most incredible views you will see in your life. Sky dive over the rain forest or take in stunning views of St. John and St. Thomas through this once in a lifetime experience. Skydive excursion and adventure services on the islands can even document your entire experience with a video and digital photo package to help you remember the experience and give you something to take home and admire long after one of the most exciting experiences of your lifetime. In tandem skydive, you are connected to a harness, which is then attached to your tandem instructor. This is what makes tandem jumping/parachuting a lot more attractive for those who might not yet have the guts to skydive alone. Your instructor will guide you through the entire jump, from your exit to your freefall, and down to your safe landing. What attracts many people to tandem skydive is the fact that you only need minimal instruction to enjoy the experience as well as having an experienced professional jump with you. It is also one of the most commonly used schooling methods for beginner skydivers, which will perhaps bring you closer to the next item on your bucket list: actual skydive!
