Key Takeaways
Group skydiving at Skydive Danielson is a fun, memorable way for friends, family, or coworkers to share the full experience together – from check-in to celebrating after landing. While each person jumps individually with a certified tandem instructor for safety, groups can ride up together, enjoy discounted rates for 10+ participants, and make lasting memories on the ground and in the air.
Skydiving with a group is a popular and super fun way to experience jumping out of an airplane, and you often get discounts for bigger parties, plus an amazing bonding experience. Group skydiving lets friends, family, or coworkers share the whole experience together – from check in to the ride up to altitude and celebrating afterward (of course). For safety reasons, you won’t jump all at once. Each person is paired with a certified tandem instructor and independent parachute system, jumping one at a time.

Jump day is designed to be exciting and totally beginner-friendly – so don’t feel pressured to have it all figured out when you get here. However, this guide will give you the best chance at becoming a group skydiving pro! Here’s what your skydiving group can expect on jump day:
Your day kicks off with your whole group arriving together. Check-in is quick and easy, and our friendly staff will get everyone organized in the safest, best way possible. At this time, you’ll fill out paperwork, tie up any loose ends, and then we will give your group the lowdown on what to expect. This is your first taste of the excitement building in the air!
Each group member will get a short, hands-on briefing covering body position, freefall basics, parachute flight, and landing techniques. It’s fast, fun, and will have you feeling confident and ready to fly.
Time to suit up! You’ll be fitted with your tandem harness which will keep you securely attached to your certified instructor – who will be your guide, safety partner, and adrenaline coach for the jump. Every strap and attachment point is double checked so you can focus on the thrill ahead.
Nothing beats the anticipation as your group climbs aboard the turbine plane. You’ll feel your heart race as the engine roars, and the views from the airfield start to stretch out below. Riding up together makes the excitement even sweeter – you can share laughs, high-fives, and those “OMG we’re really doing this” moments.
Here comes the highlight! Each person will exit the plane one by one with their instructor. For about 60 seconds, you’ll experience the pure adrenaline rush of freefall at roughly 120 mph. It’s intense, exhilarating, and completely mindblowing! Your friends won’t be far and pretty soon you’ll be reunited with them back on the ground.
After the freefall, your instructor deploys the parachute and the pace slows way down. Suddenly, you’re gliding peacefully, taking in the panoramic view of the surrounding waterways of New England, feeling the wind, the freedom and the pure joy of flying. This is the part where you can look down at your friends floating below you – unless you choose to go first!
Touchdown! Land near your group and celebrate together – high fives, photos, and the post-jump adrenaline buzz make this moment unforgettable. You’ll laugh, cheer, and immediately start sharing accounts of every second of the experience.
At Skydive Danielson, your group parachute jump isn't just about the skydive itself – it’s a full day of camaraderie, excitement, and shared adventure. From the moment you arrive to the moment you land, your group will feel the thrill, the laughter, and the bond that only skydiving can create.
Yes! Two people can absolutely experience the thrill together as part of a skydiving group. You can ride up together, go through training side by side, and land nearby – but you’ll each jump with your own certified tandem instructor.
The only time two people can go skydiving together is if it is a tandem instructor and student pairing, or two individually licensed skydivers.
No. Safety first! Each tandem jumper gets their own parachute system designed for one student and one instructor. Even in a group parachute jump, sharing one canopy isn’t allowed. This ensures proper control, weight limits, and emergency procedures, so that everyone stays as safe as possible while having the time of their lives.
There’s nothing like experiencing your first skydive with your crew by your side. At Skydive Danielson, we handle the logistics, timing, and safety requirements – so all you have to do is enjoy every moment!
