Important message to TANDEM skydivers. Please read:
Understand that the sport of
skydiving is in many regards self-regulated, meaning that
you are not skydiving using the same type of equipment at
every facility.
Georgia
Skydiving Center is the ONLY skydiving center serving Georgia
using the SIGMA tandem parachute system.
The SIGMA tandem skydiving system is the most expensive parachuting
equipment on the market, and provides a level of safety commensurate
with its cost.
Every parachute rig system
at Georgia Skydiving Center is equipped with an AAD
or Automatic Activation Device that will deploy a reserve
parachute if for any reason the main parachute fails to be
activated. The type of AAD used at Georgia Skydiving Center
is called the Cypres AAD, and is also the BEST ON THE MARKET.
All rental and student training
equipment is subject to regular safety inspections. All reserve
parachutes are inspected and repacked every 4 months, regardless
of use.
Georgia Skydiving Center uses
Mirage Systems skydiving rigs. Again, the best on the market.
All main canopies are made of zero porosity fabric, and are
state of the art. Rental and student gear is rotated constantly
so that only the latest in skydiving equipment is available
at Georgia Skydiving Center.
The above reasons have helped
Georgia Skydiving Center achieve the best tandem safety record
in the country.
