Experience Days Skydiving: To jump from a plane with a parachute safely strapped to your
back is a pretty common 'bucket list' activity. This AFF Level 1
Skydiving Course will have you freefalling from 13,000ft in just
two action-packed days. You will skydive solo, but fear not - there
will be two highly experienced instructors flanking you during your
jump to make sure everything runs smoothly!
During this AFF Level 1 Skydiving lesson you will engage in a lot
of ground training and theory before your skydive. During the jump,
you'll experience close to a minute of glorious freefall with two
instructors holding you on either side. When you do finally deploy
your parachute, the instructors will let go, like mama birds
letting their young chicks fly for the first time! At this point,
you guide your parachute gently back down to terra-firma, guided to
the landing area via radio assistance.
This is a fantastic skydiving experience, not just an amazing one-off but a valuable first
step towards completing your full AFF skydiving course. Your day
will start with six hours of ground instruction where you will be
taught all you need to know in order to safely jump out of a plane
without an instructor strapped to you. By the time of the jump you
will know about exits, stability, altitude awareness and control of
the parachute canopy. When you jump two instructors will jump with
you and stay by your side making sure that all is OK using the hand
signals that you will have learnt in your training. After around
7000ft of freefall you will deploy your parachute and float back
down to earth. Radio assistance is given under canopy during the
descent and landing if necessary. This Level One of an Eight Level
course if you want to continue and become a qualified skydiver.
