1. Skydive Pujaut Activity Company, Pujaut

Avignon

This company offers several forms of discovery and progress to practise free fall. Whether you want to make your first parachute jump or move up the discipline, you will find all the necessary information and guidance.

After a briefing on the ground you'll learn some of the safety basics and what position to adopt in the air.

Then you board the plane and climb up to around 4000 metres, after that you and your instructor jump out together and you get the thrill of a lifetime!

You spend around 50 seconds in freefall before the chute opens and you land back on the ground again after a short flight around.
