Below is a list of the safeguards they are putting in place, having consulted with medical experts. Every DZ, country and area can make its own Coronavirus safety guidelines and they will vary &#8211; but this is a good basic list. Those of us wondering what skydiving will be like after lockdown can start to imagine managing the risk of Coronavirus like we manage every other area of our skydiving safety. Ultimately everyone will make their own choice whether\/when to go to the DZ or stay home \u2013 but if we choose to skydive we can all take precautions to protect each other and our community as best we can&#8230; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"860\" height=\"484\" src=\"https:\/\/www.skydivemag.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/covd.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25620\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.skydivemag.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/covd.jpg 860w, https:\/\/www.skydivemag.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/covd-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.skydivemag.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/covd-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.skydivemag.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/covd-400x225.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 860px) 100vw, 860px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">OK, not that strict&#8230;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If there is one thing we like to do at Skydive Perris is to have fun.&nbsp; So we decided to have a little fun with our announcement of re-opening.&nbsp; The video below is comical satire and we won&#8217;t really be running you through the gauntlet that badly but we will have some rules and SOPs that need to be followed.&nbsp; <strong>Please read them all below BEFORE coming to the dropzone.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Skydive Perris Re-Opening \/ COVID-19<\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Skydive Perris Re-Opening \/ COVID-19\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ThJS9lB21fs?start=5&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption>Skydive Perris Re-Opening \/ COVID-19<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Skydive Perris COVID-19 SOPs <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Safety is always our top priority at Skydive Perris.&nbsp; For this reason we were one of the first Skydiving Centers in the country to shut down operations because of COVID-19.&nbsp; Since then more data has been gathered and new mandates released by our local and state governments. We have been carefully examining the new information and consulting with trusted medical professionals in our effort to develop a plan for how best to responsibly reopen while also maintaining the safest environment possible for all our jumpers.&nbsp; With a little time, we are optimistically expecting to relax these procedures, hopefully returning to near normal in the not too distant future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the things we love most about our skydiving family is\nthat we are an incredibly diverse group.&nbsp;\nThis includes people who are immune compromised for a variety of\nreasons.&nbsp;&nbsp; We want everyone to feel as\ncomfortable as possible coming to Skydive Perris and loading up in an Otter\ntogether and making a jump. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As tired as some of us are of the phrase, \u201cWe\u2019re in this\ntogether\u201d, at the drop zone it\u2019s always been true.&nbsp; We would never want another jumper to pay the\nprice for our bad decisions.&nbsp; It\u2019s one\nthing if we hurt ourselves but an entirely different thing if we hurt someone\nelse.&nbsp; We wear seatbelts in the plane to\nprotect ourselves and everyone else.&nbsp; We\nwill be wearing face coverings and washing our hands more often for the same\nreason.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please help us to continue to make Skydive Perris the safest\ndrop zone and facility it can be.&nbsp; The\nfollowing are the COVID-19 standard operating procedures we will be\nimplementing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Before coming to the DZ <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our first line of defense against COVID-19 is minimizing the\nlikelihood that someone who has it comes to the airport.&nbsp; Prior to coming to Skydive Perris please ask\nyourself:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Have you been in contact with someone who has COVID-19?<\/li><li>Have you tested positive for COVID-19? <\/li><li>Do you now or have you in the last 14 days had any of the following symptoms: Fever, cough, shortness of breath, chills, muscle pain, sore throat, headache, or loss of taste or smell? <\/li><li>Have you traveled out of the country in the last 14 days?<\/li><li>While at home, are you in frequent direct contact with individuals whose health is at high risk if they are exposed to COVID-19?&nbsp; (This isn\u2019t only about those of us at the DZ.)<\/li><li>Have you been disregarding basic social distancing practices in your daily life, eg, &nbsp;not wearing a mask in public and not staying at least 2 metres away from other individuals when possible?&nbsp; If you haven\u2019t been protecting yourself on a daily basis, you are more likely to have been exposed to the virus even if not showing any symptoms.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>If you answered \u201cyes\u201d to any of these questions please do\nnot come to Skydive Perris at this time. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Medical Professionals who work with COVID-19 patients but\nare strictly protected while at work will be allowed on the premises even\nthough they answered \u201cYes\u201d to the first question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Due to current state mandates and our DOD commitments during this time our facility will only be open to: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Skydivers doing ongoing and essential re-currency training <\/li><li>Patrons of the Perris Valley Skydiving School &#8211;

As\nyou walk out of the parking lot and through the airport entrance, you will be\nmet by a staff member at a pre-screening check in station.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The staff member will ask the questions\nmentioned earlier and will take your temperature.&nbsp; A \u201cYes\u201d answer to any of questions or a\ntemperature above 100 will be reason for not being allowed entry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Each person who answers \u201cNo\u201d to all the questions and who\nhas a temperature of 100 or less will be allowed to enter Skydive Perris.&nbsp;

personal sanitizing <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Everyone will be required to wear a face covering while on\nthe premises at all times.* The only time face coverings can be removed is when\nyou are secluded and not speaking with others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">*WE DO NOT WANT TO BECOME MASK POLICE BUT WE ARE GOING TO\nENFORCE THE RULES. &nbsp;PLEASE USE COMMON\nSENSE AND RESPECT FOR OTHERS<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>If you have to cough or sneeze do so tightly into your arm.&nbsp;&nbsp; If you are frequently coughing or sneezing, you will be asked to leave the premises.<\/li><li>Please maintain a minimum distance of at least six feet from other individuals whenever possible.&nbsp; This includes while you are packing.<\/li><li>While dirt diving please use common sense social distancing measures that everyone in your group is comfortable with. <\/li><li>Don\u2019t do practice counts with hand contact, handshakes, high fives or fist bumps.&nbsp; <\/li><li>Debrief skydives outside, not in small enclosed rooms. <\/li><li>No more than four people other than staff will be allowed in the manifest office at one time.&nbsp; Please put money on your account prior to coming to the drop zone.<\/li><li>Please resist taking part in the loving, affectionate physical gestures we normally enjoy including hugs, kisses, high fives, fist bumps, etc.&nbsp; (Sorry about this one)<\/li><li>Wash your hands with soap and water before and after every jump, prior to making any transactions at manifest, restaurant and wind tunnel and frequently throughout the day.<\/li><li>We will be spraying your gloves\/hands with an alcohol-based spray before boarding the airplane.<\/li><li>When possible use a barrier such as a clean paper towel to prevent direct contact with shared surfaces including sinks, toilets, water fountains, door knobs, etc.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition please be sure to provide your own supply of\nprotective equipment and sanitation items including facial coverings, hand\nsanitizer, sanitizing spray, disinfectant wipes and drinking water.

Facial coverings will\nhelp but will not completely eliminate the risk.&nbsp; The higher quality the face covering and the\nlonger it is worn the more protection it provides.&nbsp; In addition we need to pay extra attention to\nhow we conduct ourselves in the airplane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Be completely geared up and in the loading area on a 5-minute call.<\/li><li>Wash your hands as shortly before boarding the aircraft as possible.&nbsp; <\/li><li>If you wear gloves they need to be sprayed down with a sanitizing agent prior to boarding.<\/li><li>Wearing a face covering is required in the plane and loading area at all times.<\/li><li>Full-face helmets with the lenses closed are STRONGLY recommended. <\/li><li>If you are wearing a full-face helmet with the lens down during the ride to altitude you must also have a face covering.&nbsp; You can lower or remove your face covering after the red light is on just before exiting the plane.<\/li><li>If you are wearing a face covering which will not fit under your full-face helmet (like the N95) it is ok to secure your helmet to your seatbelt for takeoff. When the red light comes on you can remove your face covering and put on your full-face helmet with the lens down.<\/li><li>If you are wearing an open-faced helmet you must keep the face covering on until the red light comes on.<\/li><li>Make sure your chosen face covering is not at risk of migrating in freefall and obstructing your vision, especially with a closed full-face helmet.<\/li><li>To encourage air circulation the aircraft door will be opened at 1500\u2019 and left open as long as possible. Be extra aware that your pilot chutes are secure.&nbsp; The door will stay open until the jumpers in the front of the plane closest to the pilot ask for it to be closed. <\/li><li>Only speak in the airplane if absolutely necessary.&nbsp; Speaking increases the transmission of COVID-19 particles.&nbsp; Speaking loudly exponentially increases the transmission of COVID-19 particles.<\/li><li>Do not do practice counts, handshakes, high fives, fist bumps, etc. in the plane.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<p><!-- PD Leaderboard [async] --><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">if (!window.AdButler){(function(){var s = document.createElement(\"script\");
