The Best Ground Facilities of a Full Time Skydiving Centre in Australia The skydiving industry can be fairly primitive when it comes to its facilities. Whilst it is the skydiving that is important, as a skydiver you spend a lot of time on the ground and should not have to put up with just a shed in the paddock next to a runway. Poor facilities are unacceptable. In June 1999 we opened our new Skydiving Centre that is now regarded as the best in Australia and recognised with our finalist award in the 2000 Western Australian Tourism Awards (Tourism Development Projects category). Our health department approved café & licensed bar (the only one at a skydiving centre in WA) provides a great place for your family and friends to catch a bite to eat. In summer, our building is air-conditioned and our pool (amongst the palms) provides a great place to rest. Finally, our facility is professionally cleaned several times every week. It’s just how it should be.
A Fantastic Skydiving Aircraft
Small slow climbing aircraft dominate the skydiving industry and again, this was
unacceptable to us.
Our Cessna Caravan is
one of the three best skydiving aircraft in the world. It is a modern aircraft
design and utilises a turbine (jet) engine that runs on the same fuel that
Qantas uses (AIR-BP Jet A1).
It’s 17 place capacity means we can take more of your friends together and get
you skydiving quicker. The big door means it’s easy to get out of.
Commitment to Great Customer Service.
All of our staff have a commitment
to providing great customer service. We were the 1st skydiving centre
in Australia to become a member of the Tourism Council of Western Australia (TCWA) and
are the only current skydiving member in Western Australia. TCWA oversee the
tourism industry and only admit businesses that meet their strict criteria.
A Sound Business Philosophy Skydive Express continues to reinvest in its business with ongoing improvements to parachuting equipment, ground facilities and aircraft.

Jump Where the Majority of Experienced Skydivers Jump Just as it's good to eat (for example) Japanese food where the Japanese eat, you should skydive where the majority of experienced skydivers jump. In Western Australia that’s Skydive Express at York which is consistently the 2nd or 3rd largest 'club' in all of Australia for licensed skydivers (behind Sydney Skydivers, and sometimes Nagambie in Victoria or Ramblers in Queensland)
The following state records were done at and organised by Skydive Express
Great
Results Already Happening Skydive Express qualifies the most beginners (people doing a 1st jump) to licensed skydivers in Western Australia & the 2nd most in Australia. Great evidence our customers are happy skydiving with us. Three times as many jumps are done at Skydive Express than anywhere else in the state.
Modern Comfortable and State of the Art Parachute Systems With seven Micro Sigma and two Sigma Tandem systems from United Parachute Technologies, your Tandem Skydive is completed with a parachute system that is praised for its superior safety and comfort. Our Ten Javelin Student parachute systems are the latest design with a range of canopy sizes that enable us to match the size of your parachute to your weight.
Something to Think About
A wise man once
said “No one likes to pay too much, but worse is paying too little. When you pay
too much, all you lose is a little money. The common law of business balance
will not allow excellent service to be provided for a low price. If you intend
to use the lower priced service, you should add something extra for what you
don’t receive (eg. Poor facilities, bad service etc.), and if you do, you will
have enough to pay for something better.” |
