ACQUAINTANCE WITH THE UAE I STARTED WITH EXTREME SPORTS. THE IDEA TO JUMP WITH A PARASUTE VISITED ME LONG, BECAUSE ONE BEAUTIFUL DAY TALKING TO A FRIEND, I HAVE NOT MENTIONED THE IDEA TO STUDY BEAUTY OAK FROM AIR AND BE SUNNESS FROM SOMETHING ALWAYS ATTEN.
Surprisingly, my friend responded quite cheerfully to my offer. And on the same day we already booked a jump. The site helped me in this, where online it was possible to get acquainted with all the conditions and prices, as well as choose a suitable day for the jump and reserve a place.
If you are a beginner and do not have a special skydiver license, you will be given the opportunity to attend courses to obtain a license. Or you can jump with an instructor. My friend and I chose the second option. For all the pleasure, the company requested 1999 drx per person, including video and photography of the jump, and a special gift disk. And to confirm the reservation they asked to make a deposit of 50%.
Having completed all the formalities, we went to the right place. As expected - 15 minutes before the designated time. We went through registration, paid the second part of the amount and went to the waiting room: we were waiting for a huge LED panel and comfortable sofas for watching videos with skydivers of different ranks. The hall also had a cafe and a souvenir shop. So we didn’t have to get bored! However, an hour later they announced that weather conditions were unfavorable due to strong winds. And they offered to return the money or transfer our jump to another time. Two days later, the weather did not disappoint. Finally, we went through a brief briefing - we learned how to group together before the jump and how to behave in the air. There was no excitement. I just wanted to jump. After we were interviewed for a video and conducted to the plane.
By the way, during takeoff, the instructor fastens you to himself, gives you the last instructions, and after 15 minutes everyone takes turns to jump to nowhere. When it was my turn, and I was already standing by the open hatch, I did not even have time to look around, as the instructor literally pushed me out of the plane - and we quickly flew down. From somewhere on top a videographer appears. Signs: they say everything is great! And then a parachute opens, which takes you back up. It's time to pay attention to the fantastic view around. Dubai is a beautiful bird's eye view!
The instructor conducts a short excursion, pointing to the main attractions and even allows you to parachute. After 23 minutes, landing on the green landing strip. The adrenaline rush in the blood. A storm of emotions literally swept over! Well, you never know for sure where you will be tomorrow, and what other extreme tests await you. But in the UAE you need to feel the feeling of flying as soon as possible ... And I wish everyone and everyone to make their jump over Dubai - it's worth it!
What is necessary for the jump:
- Age from 18 years.
- Weight is not more than 100 kg for men and 90 kg for women.
- Height not higher than 220 cm for men and 198 for women.
