Contact us for more information and pricing on a refresher course. If it has been more than thirty days since your training, you will need a quick refresher course. Even if you don't get to jump the same day, that's okay - you just come back on a day with decent weather any day we're open in the next thirty days, and we'll try again. Generally, we normally manage to get the whole class in the air before we have to stop jumping at sunset.
Once the class is finished, weather permitting, your class will start gearing up for the Jump. The whole class takes about six to eight hours on average. You'll also work hard on what to do in the unlikely event that something goes wrong with your main parachute and you need to use your reserve.
You spend some time learning the general theory behind skydiving, but most of the day is spent rehearsing the physical skills you'll need: exiting the aircraft, arching, opening your main parachute, flying your parachute home, and landing gently. Your class instructor will teach you everything you need to know to make that big leap of faith with confidence. You must be physically fit and healthy to perform a Skydive. Maximum weight for Ladies is 85kg's and for Men is 95kg's. You will require parental consent if you are under the age of 18.The minimum age is 16. Proof that you're at least 18 years old. Reservations and deposits are essential! We Require a R500 non-refundable deposit per person to secure your spot, on the course. We teach the course on scheduled days and times, so please check when the next available course date is. Although you may be jumping well before sunset, the weather and other factors can sometimes have students jumping close to then. Please be prepared to be here as late as dark. If the weather is good, there's a decent chance that you'll get to see other jumpers flying through the air before your class starts. You arrive at the drop zone (the standard term for a skydiving area) for class registration. Levels 8, 9 and 10 are a minimum of three solo jumps: Two are Instructor assigned task jumps, while the third is a low altitude "hop and pop". Levels 4 - 7 require only one AFF instructor to assist you in learning solo skills such as turns on heading, back and front loops, more advanced forward movement and combining manoeuvres. These dives will focus on altitude awareness, stability, body position and successful main parachute deployment, while introducing basic manoeuvres such as turns and forward movement. On levels 1 - 3 you will be assisted by two AFF instructors. Each level has to be completed successfully, by meeting pre-determined learning and safety objectives, before moving on to the next one. The AFF program consists of ten levels of progression, each consisting of a ground training session and a minimum of one jump. At 5 000ft, you will open your own parachute, check it for performance and then control it down to the landing. The instructors will monitor and assist you throughout the freefall as you perform a sequence previously rehearsed on the ground. On the first AFF jump, you exit the aircraft at 11 000ft with two AFF instructors who will maintain a grip on you, from the moment you leave the aircraft until your parachute begins opening.
The instructor(s) determine when the student has passed the requirements or "Targeted Learning Objectives (TLOs)" for each level. The AFF programme is the most intensive training programme and will give you a true taste of modern sport skydiving.Īs the instructor's freefall with the student, they are able to correct the student's body position and other problems during freefall by communicating with the student with hand signals in freefall and debriefing the student and conducting corrective training after the jump The Accelerated Freefall (AFF) programme was instituted in 1982 as an "accelerated" learning process as compared to the traditional static line progression. It's considered the fastest and most successful way to learn to skydive in the world.
AFF has been used to teach thousands of people to skydive with great success all over the world.
