The jump experience
Want to take the big leap above the Pyrenees? Here’s how your adventure with Air Adrénaline unfolds:
After a 15-minute ground briefing explaining the jump sequence and safety instructions, you’ll be geared up and ready to go.
Time to head to the runway and board the plane (Pilatus, Cessna, or Kodiak). Full throttle, and we’re airborne!
During the 20-minute ascent, you’ll enjoy breathtaking views of the Pyrenees chain, flying over the valleys of Lourdes and Bagnères-de-Bigorre.
At over 3,500 m, with the green light from our seasoned pilot, the door opens. The wind rushes in…
The big leap! Just follow your instructor’s lead, keep smiling, eyes wide open, and soak it all in!
And here we go — 45 seconds of freefall at 200 km/h, a pure shot of adrenaline!
At 1,500 m above ground, your instructor deploys the parachute — time slows down for a 6–7 minute glide.
A few last reminders from your instructor… one final turn, and you touch down smoothly!
