Courses starts with an introductory Tandem skydive with no task for you to complete.
The next two jumps are Tandem jumps where you will learn the basic aspects of freefall skydiving and parachute control.
You will then spend a day at Ground School. Here you cover the basics from exiting the aircraft to learning to fly your parachute.
Once you have completed the ground course you will have a very good understanding of all the basic aspects involved in freefall skydiving. You will now be ready for your first skydive.
Level 4 to 7 will be with a single instructor and here you learn independence in freefall, including moving forward, initiating and stopping turns and regaining stability from front and back loops.
Level 8 – 10 you jump solo and put together all the skills you have learnt under the watchful eye of your instructor monitoring you from the ground.
