Enjoy:
• Tandem Skydive (4,000 m). First-time jumpers leap from 4,000 m (the highest standard tandem jump altitude in the Baltics). You are securely harnessed to an instructor and enjoy ~60 seconds of thrilling freefall, followed by a few minutes of gliding under a dual parachute. All gear and a safety briefing are included. No experience needed – just bring your courage!
• Oxygen Skydive (5,500 m). For an even bigger adventure, book the "Oxygen Jump" from 5,500 m. This record-breaking high-altitude jump delivers about 90 seconds of freefall at ~250 km/h. Pure oxygen is provided during the ascent to that height, and the package includes special jumpsuits, a photo/video package, and a commemorative certificate. The ultimate Baltic skydiving experience!
• AFF Training. Accelerated Freefall (AFF) courses let you learn to skydive on your own. In this internationally recognized program you take theory classes and complete 8 supervised jumps under instructor guidance. All necessary gear is provided, and successful completion earns you a solo skydiving license.
• Canopy & Coaching. Experienced jumpers can sharpen their skills with canopy piloting courses and personalized coaching. Skydive Latvia also offers specialized training programs for both civil and military personnel, making it a full-service center for every skydiving enthusiast.
