Accelerated Free Fall

An Accelerated Freefall Course is probably the quickest and safest method of learning to skydive. Based on eight levels of achievement normally with one skydive at each level. Given good weather, the course may sometimes be completed in a few days. After graduating from AFF you perform ten additional consolidation jumps, guided by your instructors, practising the skills you have learned, after which you will be recognised as a qualified solo skydiver.

The course commences with a day of ground based tuition with your Instructor. This covers the theory and practice of skydiving and the use of your parachute system. You will learn safety procedures, how the equipment operates, how to exit the aircraft with your Instructors, how to maintain control and communicate in freefall, how to initiate the opening of the main parachute, and how to steer down to the landing area and land safely. Before your jumps you practice all the procedures for both your skydive and the parachute descent until your instructors are completely satisfied with your abilities. When your Instructors are happy with your performance on the ground, you will make your first skydive with two Instructors holding on to you. They continue to teach you during freefall using a system of hand signals: following your jump a through debrief takes place with your Instructors, followed by remedial training both to improve skills learned already and add those required for the next jump.
