Level 8 is from 5,000 feet and you are required to make a solo jump, deploying your parachute in a stable position within 10 seconds. Levels 4 – 7 are where you learn to do 360° turns, back loops, tracking and track turns and dive exits. Levels 1-3 are with 2 instructors where you are coached on stability, maintaining a good body position and heading, altitude awareness and deploying your parachute unassisted.

The Full Accelerated Freefall Skydiving Course consists of 8 levels although there may be times where your instructors wish you to repeat levels for safety reasons. The skydiving lessons are held in groups with a student : instructor ratio no larger than 4 : 1. Once safely on the ground, you will receive feedback from your instructor and depending on whether you have signed up for the Full AFF Course, a brief ready for your next skydive!. The canopy ride is about 5 minutes, so plenty of time for you to take in the birds eye views as well as enjoying flying your canopy. It’s then up to you to navigate your canopy back to the landing area with the help of another instructor on the ground talking to you giving you some helpful pointers on your radio.
