Why is Balloon jumping so much fun?
There are a lot of reasons why jumping off a hot air balloon is a lot of fun.
We have made a little list of points that are different to a “normal” skydive.
- dead air exit (this means that the first seconds of freefall you have a weightless drop)
- rope swing exit (on a lot of hot air balloons you can swing with a rope)
- sunrise or sunset jumps (the balloons need likely no wind so this is the best time for the jump)
On our trip to Sevilla this year we did a baloon jump in the middle of nowhere. It was super fun, and definitely a fantastic experience!
But don’t be fooled by the “funny” feeling at the exit and just enjoy the first jump.
