What Skydiving Equipment to Purchase?
- Jumpsuit: A jumpsuit is a specially made outfit that aids you in your chosen freefall discipline.
- Parachute Container: Parachute containers can be entirely personalized to your specifications, including form, height, color, and style, or they can be very basic or bought off the shelf.
- Skydiving Helmet: Full-face helmets reduce freefall noise, provide convenience, and provide built-in audible altimeter pockets, which have the best protection.
- Main Parachute: The weight and experience level of the main parachutes are taken into consideration when purchasing them.
- Reserve Parachute: In the case that the primary parachute fails, this is the life-saving backup parachute.
- Skydiving Altimeter: This is a wrist-mounted altimeter that keeps track of the altitude during takeoff, freefall, and under the canopy. Altimeters may be analog or mechanical, and some also have several functions.
- Automatic Activation Device: Its prime purpose is to keep track of your speed and altitude.
- Skydiving Audible Altimeter: A tiny gadget that is fixed in one’s helmet and beeps at predetermined altitudes to aid in maintaining altitude sensitivity.
