The supplemental lead names Skydive Playa in Mexico. Its official website identifies the Playa del Carmen operation and explicitly describes a TANDEM JUMP; the accurate official product heading is “Tandem Jump.” The official gallery image depicts a tandem parachute descent over water, but is treated as representative rather than confirmed documentation of a particular customer's tour. The official page HTML could not be retrieved directly by HTTP request (403), but the image URL was linked in the official page's fetched content and the image itself loaded successfully.
