Skydiving with Maytown Sports Parachute Club
Experience the beautiful scenery of central Pennsylvania from 10k feet & 120+ miles per hour. With unbelievable views of Lancaster and York county, stretching all the way down to the Chesapeake Bay, tandem skydives at MSPC are absolutely unforgettable.
How it works:
After a brief class, a USPA certified tandem instructor will gear you up, and escort you to our jump plane. After a short plane ride, you will take the leap over Lancaster County. With nearly 50 seconds of freefall, and a 5 minute parachute ride, you will land safely right in front of your friends and family. A tandem jump is a great way to experience the thrill of skydiving while under close supervision of an experienced Instructor.
Only 3 spots available!
**Must be able to elevate your feet from a seated position for 30 seconds**
**Must be able to be on your knees for several minutes**
CONSIDERATIONS WHEN DECIDING WHERE TO SKYDIVE
There is more than pricing to consider when choosing where to skydive. Maytown Sport Parachute Club has been proudly, and safely skydiving for over 50 years in Central Pennsylvania. MSPC is a club and not a commercial dropzone, which means we care more about creating amazing experiences than making a profit. Their tandem passengers get much more personalized training than most skydiving facilities. Our instructors will take the time to get to know you prior to the jump, and they will work with you from the moment you arrive, until you’re on the way home.
Safety is their #1 concern, so they align themselves with USPA by being a group member dropzone. The USPA (United States Parachute Association) is the regulatory body for the sport. The USPA sets stringent safety requirements for all of its member dropzones, but it isn’t mandatory for skydiving centers to be part of the USPA. This is important, because non-USPA skydive centers can set their own rules, and they don’t think that’s a great idea.
Not sure what to make about all of this? They are open every weekend (weather permitting) from 10am-sunset, so feel free to stop out and see them in action. They’d be happy to show you around, and answer any questions you may have.
