Freefall Adventure
Melbourne Skydive Centre, Coldstream, VIC

You're poised at an open aircraft door, 10,000 feet in the air. Your heart is racing. 3 ... 2 ... 1... Go, Go, Go! Powered by gravity you accelerate until the clouds are disappearing above you at 220km/h. This doesn't feel like falling, it's more like flying, and in this moment you are pure energy: conquering the Earth below you, defying your fear, and as free as the wind.

As you freefall with your tandem master, you'll take in stunning views as far as you can see and once the parachute is open you will glide effortlessly through the air. The landing is easy - lift your legs, the parachute will glide and you will eventually put your feet down to land. Afterwards, a wine tasting experience at a Yarra Valley winery is included for you to enjoy.
