Damian and Sonja Graduated
Level 8.
Damian "The course
was very good, my favourite part was level 7, having
enough time and confidence after completing the
manoeuvres to share a joke with my instructor"
Sonja "My
favourite level was 7, completing some cool moves. I
found the instructors very friendly, helpful with
easy to follow instructions and being supported all
the way"

Course Outline |
|
This is an
advanced method of skydiving instruction
which has been developed in the USA to
enable people to take full advantage of one
to one training and learning while in
freefall. Accelerated Freefall courses are
one of most popular programs here in Spain.
As an AFF student you make your first jump
on the latest, purpose built equipment with
a state of the art square canopy. Your first
jump will be a freefall descent from between
12,000 ft and 15,000 ft with two AFF
instructors jumping with you and and
maintaining grips on your body and parachute
harness. These two AFF instructors assist
with stability and provide in-air teaching
information. Prior to each and every jump
the student receives extensive and thorough
training, covering both the freefall
learning objectives and the operation of the
equipment used in the program.
Successful students graduate to having only
one AFF instructor accompanying them by
Level 4. The instructor in freefall will
provide instructional input and subsequently
critique the performance. Students normally
graduate from the AFF program on or around
their eighth jump.
At this stage they have mastered most of the
freefall skills that would take their
conventional counterparts about 20 - 30
jumps to achieve. The AFF program caters not
only for the person who wishes to graduate
and become a skydiver, but also provides an
opportunity for those people who would like
to make one freefall descent in a safe and
controlled environment - AFF Level 1.

Training |
|
|
The size of an AFF
class is restricted to a maximum of three people.
The tuition is on a very close personal basis and
yet is informal and relaxed, often on a one to one
basis. In this environment the student can
assimilate a great amount of knowledge in a short
period of time. The training comprises lectures and
physical activities covering all aspects of the
skydives that you will be making. |

The Equipment |
|
 |
The equipment is a
highly specialised system used for AFF and has a
proven track record for parachuting. Jump
suits, helmets, radios, goggles and altimeters are
all provided by us.
Our equipment is
also serviced on a regular basis by qualified
packers and riggers. Lastly, every time you jump,
you have a main and a reserve parachute. |

Many people have
raised thousands of pounds for charities over the
years. We can help by offering advice and the
necessary forms to enable you to raise the money.
Many charities approve of some subsidy of training
costs and this should be clarified at an early
stage.
