Restrictions

Age

In the UK you must be 16 or more to skydive. If you are under 18 you must have a parent or guardians signature on the 'British Parachute Association' (BPA) membership and the medical declaration form.

Weight

Skydiving is an active sport and it helps to be reasonably fit and supple. There is no minimum weight limit but if you are very light it is normal to wear a weight belt or vest to increase your fall rate. If you are in excess of 16 stone and especially if you are that weight and under 6ft skydiving might not be for you.
