* **Read the Guidelines:** Carefully review the operator's weight limits and other safety guidelines before booking your jump.

**Maximum Allowable Weight = Jumper's Body Weight + Equipment Weight**
* **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.
The key factor influencing terminal velocity is the jumper's **mass** (which includes their body weight and the weight of their equipment). The greater the mass, the higher the terminal velocity. However, the shape and orientation of the skydiver's body also play a significant role. A skydiver in a streamlined freefall position, with their arms and legs tucked close to their body, will experience less air resistance and reach a higher terminal velocity than a skydiver in a less aerodynamic position.
<h3>3. Be Honest About Your Weight:</h3>
<p>Inquire about the skydiving center's equipment maintenance procedures and check if they use high-quality, regularly inspected parachutes and harnesses.</p>
