4dolphinson, Our tandem instructors are the best in the business and our gear is brand new. Anytime you step out of an airplane and go 120 mph, there are some risks involved of course. Unfortunately my dear friend Amanda suffered a broken ankle a few years ago on landing. Out of the 489 tandems we have done over the years, that is the only injury.
We had a licensed skydiver die at the event in 2006. He never deployed either parachute. We are all saddened and stumped by that one.
In 2007 we had a jumper that was out partying all night and then clipped a power line on the first jump of the day, by not following the rules.
We have been injury free the past three years.

We fly our airplane and conduct all of our skydives under USA FAA rules and regulations. Most of the folks here that have seen me in action know I run a pretty tight ship, with more stringent rules in Belize than here in the US.
