Skydive Dubai has a private air strip of their own. The plane takes off from this air strip. During the free fall, the jumper falls at a speed of 210 kilometres per hour. The instructor opens the parachute at a specific height. After the parachute opens, you would just glide in the air while enjoying the mesmerizing views of the Palm Jumeirah.
