Landing Patterns
Look before you leap! Make sure you are super familiar with our landing patterns before skydiving:
- The main landing area requires jumpers to follow a left-hand landing pattern – use the wind tetrahedron for guidance.
- The Skydive Carolina landing area is huge. If you’re not comfortable with the pattern of the main landing area, you can land in a different open area.
- No more than 90 degree turns onto final are permitted in the main landing area – no hook turns or swooping. There is a designated swoop area, which is a no-fly zone for non-swoopers.
All Disciplines Welcome
Skydive Carolina is the chosen training ground for national champions and top podium finishers – come one, come all!
Due to constraints of operating in Class B airspace, special permission must be granted for Canopy Relative Work (CRW).
