How does a parachute jump work?
Types of jump
- Tandem Jump: this is the simplest and most common way to get started. You are attached to an experienced instructor who controls every phase of the jump, from exiting the plane to landing. If you'd like to book a jump at the Accademia di Paracadutismo in Casale Monferrato, you can do so here.
- AFF (Accelerated Free Fall): a more advanced training course. You jump alone, but with one or more instructors following you in freefall during the initial stages. Discover our AFF course.
- Static Line: a military or beginner training method. The parachute opens using a tether attached to the aircraft.
Jump phases
- Briefing and preparation on the ground: you learn safety positions and basic instructions.
- Flight by plane: you reach altitudes of 3,000-4,200 metres.
- Freefall: lasts approximately 50-60 seconds if you jump from 4,200 metres.
- Parachute opening and landing: it happens around 1,500 metres above the ground, thanks to the instructor's instructions (in tandem) or your training (in an AFF jump).
Jump duration from 4,200 metres
The freefall lasts approximately 60 seconds, followed by 5-10 minutes of open-parachute flight. In total, about 10 minutes of pure adrenaline!
Minimum age for skydiving
Generally, 16+ with parental consent. However, some schools require you to be 18+.
Who can't go skydiving?
- People with serious heart problems or significant lung disease.
- People with neurological disorders or physical conditions that prevent the correct jump position.
- Pregnant women (it is advisable to wait until after giving birth).
- In all cases of doubt, ask your instructor.

Knowing what a quoted figure actually covers is the fastest way to compare two centres:
| Item | Included in the price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Briefing and preparation on the ground | Yes | With the instructor who jumps with you |
| Full set of equipment | Yes | Harness, helmet and goggles |
| Climb to 4,200 metres | Yes | About 25 minutes |
| Jump and canopy flight | Yes | 50-60 seconds of freefall, 5-10 minutes under canopy |
| Photos and video of the jump | No | Optional packages |
| Rebooking in case of bad weather | Yes | Date moved at no extra cost |
What makes the price of a tandem jump go up or down
Three factors move the final figure more than anything else:
- Day of the week: with us it is €180 from Monday to Friday and €200 on Saturdays and Sundays, when demand is highest.
- Photos and video: the main extra at every centre. The jump is identical, what changes is the filming service you add.
- Group jumps: for bachelor parties, birthdays and team building, many centres offer dedicated terms from four people up. Ideas in our bachelor party gift list.
- Where you are in Italy: as the table shows, the same jump can cost €160 in Piedmont and over €300 elsewhere.
