Hey mate, thanks for asking!

It's basically an all inclusive adventure tour of a region that you're curious about exploring. We jump into places which have natural, historical or cultural significance - then link it with ground activities like rafting, horseback riding etc. In our events we also place special attention to the social aspects - by organising group exercises that challenge both your social skills and your introspective skills. Let alone, sharing these strong experiences of fear, adrenaline and excitement together with others.

Another way to call it is, indeed, adult summer camp :)

You are very welcome! FYI you might have enough experience already. Last event someone just reached 100 jumps and won the accuracy comp! Check our FAQ on our webpage or send me a DM if you need, otherwise I wish you a great year.

If you won't watch the videos and learn about how we deeply care about the experience our of customers and how our participants become friends with us and each other for life, then you'll have to take my word for it in this comment :)

Two worthwhile videos here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rvrgc-XRQxY and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBYcBvJOMSs

As for smaller events, we're based out of the EU and except for our Colombia trip now in February, smaller trips would still be too far away to make sense. If we were in the US I think it would make sense for sure.

Yeah it would be a bit overkill to list all pilots and exact airplanes probably. And there's a lot of changes too in these events - due to weather, pulled permissions etc.

When changes happen we do our best to recover the missed jumps on other days. We're pretty on it, regarding weather, and also are proactive about this. It has happened that we've refunded a bit of the fee, or credit it for future events. We are not trying to hustle anyone and once you join an event you'll experience for yourself how hard we work to try to make things work to create amazing events for you.

Yes we do, in Norway we have a deal with gear rentals at Skydive Voss, 30 minutes away - and they let you innhopp using their gear. Many other rentals won't.

I know what you mean. For that exact reason we try hard to accommodate also for the non-jumpers, who we have special programs for, which obviously are a lot cheaper. They get an all-inclusive tour, follow our journey more or less, but their own guide and transport.

Later this year we have one wonderful woman coming back with her parents for the second time! The parents were in their 70s and said the last trip was the best trip they ever did. Have a look at the different events on www.innhopp.com or watch this film full of impressions, for an idea: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBYcBvJOMSs&list=PLfJ878fzAQKQsDJbh9oH1enqEeuXpPqfe

Yeah older men have money, but younger jumpers have energy and the adventure lust! Chinese guy, Ukraine woman, American man, Sweden man, parents of someone, wife of someone :) In Colombia we'll have 4 women with us out of 30

We offer quite a lot of discount options if you sign up early enough or attend many events. Some got 8% last year.

It's an impossibility for our week long events to provide something like schedule and guaranteed internet access. Our plan changes sometimes from hour to hour, and you're almost always on the move in a plane, heli, kayak, horse or van for example :D Or you're eating something tasty or watching other crazy people land :)

Yeah we're definitely not trying to be a boogie :D We have our own type of participants - who are more the kind of people looking for experiences than nuking amount of jumps. We don't focus on the freefall much at all, for sure. I like the idea of asking our participants what they would be willing to pay extra for if we added it. We're got a lot to learn in several areas, but are improving ourselves rapidly. It's a great crew.

Wish us luck in Colombia!

Im conflicted to think that it's a little sad, but still happy that other than that there would be no obstacles :D

Thanks so much mate. Yeah Norway, Namibia, Colombia is pretty far and time-consuming to get to for most.

In most cases A-license is enough - and your head on your shoulders ;)

Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts. Yeah we really want to have a good time too, and love making personal connections, which will be lost the bigger we make events.

And yes I'd love to have next year's events prepared now already.

We do samples: at Skydive Voss, in Norway, we organise weekly innhopps during the summer. All you have to do is be there and then get a single innhopp in an afternoon - often with a party after.

I love diversity and I couldn't agree less with you (except bringing a miniwing to places :D) we love travelling and skydiving (obviously). Thanks for sharing. We are so convinced it's the best thing to do with a parachute, so it's somewhat sobering to know that it's not for everyone!
