We filmed the Alipay Global Shopping Festival Advert here at Skydive Auckland.

We held a BBQ and skydive event for over 100 Auckland based booking agents to showcase our awesome dropzone. Great food, drink and sunshine - it could not have been better! The feedback was outstanding with many tourism agents saying it was the best skydive they have ever done in terms of views, the dropzone and the people.

Every year we have the pleasure of supporting Taupaki School with their fundraising, by skydiving right into their event just before the fireworks display and bringing a few of the school staff along for the ride.

V Energy NZ chose Skydive Auckland to film their recent advert. Yep, we threw a longboard, Xbox and a GS7 out of a plane and challenged Josh to dive after them. Have you got your can ready?

Nikon NZ introduced the 360 degree camera at Skydive Auckland to capture one of our sport skydiver's life mission. Sue is an adventurous skydiver, obsessed with her sport. She realised her mission when she could combine it with her passion for charity. Hurtling through the big blue sky she is creating a long-lasting impact for the less fortunate.

Skydiving granny reckons her 90th birthday outclassed the Queen's dull birthday

"You can bet what you like that the Queen, who's also 90 - she won't be diving off a plane. She had the dullest birthday you could imagine," Irene says.

The north Auckland resident, who lives in Mairangi Bay's Knightsbridge Village, used her 90th birthday celebration as an excuse to knock another item off her bucket list: Jumping from a plane nearly 3 kilometres above Parakai.

"It was lovely. You could see Rangitoto, East Coast, West Coast, Helensville - everything laid out before us. I'd recommend it to anybody. It's a terrific experience,"

Jump Start is a charity event that has been running for 9 years and gives 50 CanTeen and Project K teenagers the challenge of a lifetime when they get to jump out of a plane and experience a tandem skydive.

The premise of Jump Start is that the experience of being alive transforms. The elements are:

Facing fear: Discovering inner strength
Placing trust in others: Finding mutual support and team identity
Elation: Skydiving is an intense experience of being alive
Confidence: Gained from accomplishing the goal
Acknowledgement: Applause as they receive a certificate of accomplishment
Belonging: Being part of a group of first-time jumpers

The teenagers enjoyed stunning sunrise views of the Kaipara harbour, rainforests and beaches as they flew to altitude. The nerves at this point were building while they waited for the door of the plane to open and the wind to rush in. Freefalling from 10,000ft for an amazing 30 seconds, they reached speeds of up to 200kph. After freefall they experienced a beautiful parachute ride before landing safely back on the ground.

We hosted a Pink Ribbon Breakfast last month at Skydive Auckland to raise money for the New Zealand Breast Cancer Foundation.

By mixing up the skydiving action with some fundraising fun we raised a fantastic $2,500!

The BBQ was fired up by 8am with breaky sponsored by Skydive Auckland and NZPF (New Zealand Parachute Foundation). We donated 10% of the price of every directly booked tandem skydive taken during the event. Parakai Airfield donated the total landing fee of every Skydive Auckland flight during the day, raising $1000.  This was a substantial donation to the charity and really boosted the fundraising total.

Our regular sport skydiving community enjoyed a two-way scrambles competition organised by the NZPF. This game involved a series of acrobatic positions during freefall which were filmed by a separate camera flyer to keep score of points achieved.

Well done everyone. A fantastic day for all involved!

Billy our tandem master is enjoying a bit of fame at the moment! And Ruby has become a bit of a skydiving super star.

Last month we had the pleasure of having Ruby out at our drop zone in Parakai. Ruby wanted to tick tandem skydiving off her buck list and at Skydive Auckland were the people to help.

At 90 years old she is a very cool and brave grannie. Ruby decided she didn’t want a cup of tea and cupcakes for her birthday… she wanted to go SKYDIVING!!! Ruby said ‘if she can do it, anyone can’. Billy looked after Ruby for her tandem skydive and was even lucky enough to have Ruby sing to him on their way down.
