Tandem skydives, where an instructor is attached to the jumper, carry additional weight considerations. The combined weight of the jumper and instructor must be within the tandem system's limits. The instructor's weight will be considered along with the jumper's weight, so the jumper's maximum weight allowance will likely be lower.

**Q: Is it safe to skydive if I am overweight?**
**A:** Yes, if you are determined to skydive and are above the weight limit, you can consider losing weight to meet the requirements. This is a long-term solution that can benefit your overall health and well-being.
4. **Consider alternative options:** If the drop zone's weight restrictions prevent you from jumping, explore other options. Some drop zones might offer alternative activities like solo skydiving, which typically has higher weight limits.
