* **Increased Terminal Velocity:** A heavier skydiver will reach a higher terminal velocity, which can make it more challenging to control the descent and increase the risk of injury upon landing.
* **Reduced Maneuverability:** A heavier skydiver may find it more difficult to maneuver in the air, potentially leading to collisions with other jumpers or obstacles.
Skydiving requires a certain level of physical fitness, regardless of weight. Ensure you have no pre-existing medical conditions that could hinder your ability to participate safely.
* **Parachute:** The parachute itself, including the canopy, harness, and reserve parachute, can weigh anywhere from 20 to 30 pounds.
* **Communicate with Staff:** Be open and honest with the skydiving staff about any medical conditions or concerns you may have.
