Terms and Conditions
Click here to view terms and conditions
A non-refundable deposit of £50 is required at the time of booking. The balance is required at check-in, prior to your skydive.
The minimum age for skydiving is 16 with parental consent. There is no upper age limit for tandem students although everyone will need to read thoroughly the Tandem Certificate of Medical Fitness (you can now self certify if fit and healty).
Anyone who is of a reasonable standard of fitness, weighs no more than 16 stone or 102kg and who is at least 16 years old can take part in a tandem skydive. We can also cater for people with a range of disabilities. This is done on a case by case basis after consultation with our Chief Instructor.
Safety is our main concern and we will not jump if weather conditions make your skydive unsafe. British weather is very changeable and we constantly monitor it. If ground winds become too high, or cloud cover becomes too thick, we may have to halt our jumping programme. This may delay your jump.
Our chief instructor and DZ control check the forecast a day in advance of jumping and if the conditions look unsuitable we will aim to contact you and advise you to change your arrival time or reschedule for another day. So check your emails and voicemail.
Five million pounds worth of third-party insurance is included in your first jump with the Army Parachute Association. Personal insurance is not compulsory but many jumpers do take out some protection, and we would always advise this as a precaution. To find out more you can contact Skydiving Cover.

Once you have been trained if bad weather prevents you from jumping please speak to our staff to rebook your jump for another day. Before you turn up you may find it helpful to check the weather forecast, if there are any questions, please message a member of the committee.

- You should not attend any events if you have tested positive for COVID-19 or have COVID-19 symptoms. We recommend taking a Lateral Flow Test before attending any event.
- The venues we work with will have different COVID measures in place which must be adhered to.
- If an event has to be cancelled due to government restrictions around COVID-19, we will attempt to reschedule the event. Your ticket will remain valid for the rescheduled date. Refunds will only be issued if rescheduling is not possible.
General Terms and Conditions
- Bristol SU operates ticket purchasing for multiple events at venues across the city. These terms and conditions only apply where they are not superseded by an event promoter or a particular venue’s terms and conditions.
- Admission to all events is subject to the restrictions employed by the host venue.
- Students must bring their University of Bristol UCard to every event they wish to attend for identification purposes. For members of the public, photo ID will be required (e.g. passport, driving licence, proof of age card)
- Re-admission is not allowed once you have attended an event unless approved by the manager on duty.
- Right of admission is reserved by the venue management. Please note that you are still subject to Bristol SU’s event admission procedures and can be refused entry if you breach these.

- Every effort will be made to allow priority queuing at all events – however, this cannot be guaranteed.
- All events are restricted to AGE 18+ unless specifically noted on the event page. All guests are required to provide proof of age if asked by the door staff, and you can be refused entry if you are unable to do this.
