Parachutists need a reasonable standard of physical fitness. Tilstock have minimum fitness requirements. All participants must be physically fit, fully self-mobile with a full range of mobility and able to lift their knees to their chest unaided.
Unfortunately, if you have a condition or disability which reduces your mobility, you won’t be able to skydive. Please contact Tilstock Airfield if you are unsure, as participants will be assessed on arrival and will not be able to jump if the minimum fitness requirements are not met.
