ABOUT NZONE SKYDIVE

NZONE Skydive is the birthplace of Tandem Skydiving in New Zealand. Queenstown in NZ’s South Island, also known as the ‘Home of Adventure’, is the premium place to ‘Jump out of a perfectly good Aeroplane’! Our drop zone is located at the base of the famous Remarkables mountain range surrounded by a working sheep farm. Your Queenstown skydiving experience starts at our meeting point located right in the heart of Queenstown at the NZONE Skydive Centre, 35 Shotover Street. This is your check-in point for the best skydive in Queenstown, following registration and a video briefing in our innovative cinema room, you can select your photo and video options. You will be transported to our drop zone just 20 minutes away on a private airstrip set amid a rural farmland background.

THE EXPERIENCE

Once you decide to #embracethefear with us our skydive host will assist you to gear up and you will be briefed by one of our Tandem Masters. Your flight to altitude will take you high above the Wakatipu basin, where you will have a birds eye view of our dramatic mountains and lakes. Expect sensory overload as your mind, body and soul fight against every natural self-preserving urge. Harnessed by space age materials to a qualified Jumpmaster, you step out of that aircraft door and for up to 60 seconds freefall at 200 kph – terminal velocity! Jumping directly above our drop zone you will experience some of the most dramatic scenery in NZ, from up to 15,000ft! Once your Tandem Master deploys the parachute, together you glide back to earth with a canopy ride of approximately 4-5 minutes.
