Air sport · parachute · excluded
Skysurfing is parachuting with a board on your feet. For insurers it is pure air sport, and that appears in the exclusions on almost every policy.

In skysurfing you jump from an aircraft with a board on your feet and steer during free fall as if on a surfboard. It is a discipline within parachuting, with a higher risk of an uncontrollable spin than an ordinary jump. Insurers draw no distinction: anything called air sport falls outside cover.
On travel, personal accident and often on life insurance policies too, air sports appears among the standard exclusions, usually in wording that leaves only travelling as a passenger on a scheduled flight. In reality, cover runs through the parachute centre or the parachuting federation, with limited sums insured and only during organised activities.
Distinguish three policies: travel, personal accident and life: they respond differently.
The trip is covered, the jump is not.
Acceptance is possible, but rarely without restriction.
Here too the sport counts on underwriting.
What is covered
| Situation | Standard | With extension |
|---|---|---|
| A jump with a board at a recognised parachute centre | No | Provided that |
| Training or working towards a licence | No | Provided that |
| Taking part in a demonstration or competition | No | No |
| Medical expenses after a landing error | No | Provided that |
| Permanent disability after a hard landing | No | Provided that |
| Flying to the drop zone as a passenger | Yes | Yes |
What is actually covered is set out in the policy conditions and the insurance card (verzekeringskaart) that you receive in advance.
Two points that weigh more heavily in air sports than in winter sports.
In addition to off-piste mountain sports, diving below a stated depth and speed contests take out policies air sports in wide terms: parachuting, hang-gliding, paragliding and anything resembling them. Skysurfing falls under this without argument, even for a one-off supervised jump.
When taking out life or disability insurance you are asked about high-risk sports. If you answer incompletely, you breach the duty of disclosure under Article 7:928 of the Dutch Civil Code and payment can be reduced or refused (Article 7:930 of the Dutch Civil Code). Jumping outside the centre’s rules may also fall under Article 7:952 of the Dutch Civil Code fall.
Insurers weigh these details differently. That is where your saving is.
Customers rate our service on four aspects: personal service, service delivery, availability and the outcome. The reviews are collected and published by NH1816 and come from customers who have actually taken out a policy with Finass Advies B.V. or reported a claim.
This is what people ask us most.
No. Air sport is excluded on almost every travel policy, even for a one-off jump. Travel, accommodation and baggage do remain covered. Only the consequences of the jump do not.
Sometimes on a personal accident policy, with an additional premium or a lower sum insured for disability. The parachute centre or the parachuting federation also usually has collective cover during jumping activities.
Yes. The health declaration asks about high-risk sports. Withholding this can cost your dependants their payment under Article 7:930 of the Dutch Civil Code. Reporting it usually leads to an additional premium, not a refusal.
As a passenger you are covered as normal up to the moment you jump. Some policies limit that to aircraft with a valid certificate of airworthiness; check that wording in advance.
Before your first jump, have it established what the centre, the federation and your own policies cover between them.
