What is Static Line Jump?
The safest type of skydiving is static ram air or static-line jump, Static-line skydiving is a solo jump. It’s the most basic form of solo skydiving, which is great for beginners since the parachute self-deploys within 3 to 5 seconds after the jumper exits the aircraft. As the skydiver falls away from the plane, the deployment of the main canopy is initiated by a “static line” attached to the aircraft.
The jumper will exit the plane at 4,000 feet (1219.2 meters).
When the parachute is deployed, the jumper will maneuver it down to the surface with the assistance of the ground instructor, who will lead the jumper through walkie-talkies. An experienced Jump Master from Angkatan Tentera Malaysia (ATM), Malaysian Armed Forces will lead the training .
It is one of a kind experience or it's a one-time thing for you! Once you have completed Solo Static Line Parachute Training Course, you can come back to join static line jump as many times as you want, as you already have the basics and skills. Your course already includes Membership for one (1) year, you will get a discount on the next jump and unlimited gear rental.
We provide everything, from the training manuals to the equipment like helmet, 2 parachutes (main & reserve), altimeter, AAD and google. Basic Skydive Course only available a few times in a year. All you need is to make yourself free from Friday till Sunday to ready for action!
It can be super scary, and if you chicken out on the airplane, there will be no refunds. Make sure you are serious and want to learn this sport and put your 100% gut to make it happen to shine on your life as a memorable experience.
The skydiving course is only available on the date set on the calendar on our website and it won't always be available due to the difficulty in obtaining NOTAMs (Notices to Air Missions) to fly. Also, remember that skydiving is strongly related to weather conditions, the instructor has the last word in deciding if it’s safer to call off the activity and plan it for another day.
