This is the old University of Bristol Skydiving Website. It is here for demonstration purposes only. You can find the current one here.

Now's your chance to take part in one of the original extreme sports! The University of Bristol offers static line training and tandem jumps with BPA trained instructors.

We're also one of the most social clubs around! We meet every thursday at 8pm in the EPI (the Union Bar) for beer and skydiving talk - a good time is guaranteed! Come along and meet us if you're interested in joining the club. If you can't make it, pop a cheque for Ł15 payable to University of Bristol Skydiving Club into internal mail (just ask any porter) addressed to Skydiving, The Athletic Union.

Anyone can join - even if you're not at Bristol University.

The training section explains training weekends and what you will get out of the experience. If you wish to travel to the dropzone yourself directions contains maps and a detailed description of how to get there. Weather has satellite images and weather forecasts to help you decide when to go to the dropzone. There are a lot of other skydiving sites out there, and links will help you get to them quickly. If you want to share you experiences with the rest of the club where better than the Guestbook. The Diary has summaries of events etc organised by the club or by the BCPA. Helpfully, contacts will help you get in contact with committee members or Eaglescott. If you are using one of the better university computers and your connection is fast, check out the gallery for photos of weekends away.

We get asked the same questions time and time again, so check out the Faq (Frequently Asked Questions) section before contacting us.
