This video pumped me up! I start my AFF courses in June at 37 years old!

Nice! Ideal student who made life easy for his instructors!

Nicely done AFF course!

Amazing! Thanks for the video!

The sensation of getting pulled back up when you pull the cord... it’s unbelievable 💯

You don’t get pulled back up lol. You’re still falling after you deploy. It just slows you down

Nice, well done 👌

Здорово! Молодцы! Спасибо парни!

El mejor video explicativo que vi del curso

Awesome!!!

A students success and progress is either of value to every experienced jumpers or a possible danger to them where body and canopy control are not learned correctly. Any attitude it's only the trainers responsibility is usually a attitude that results in a student quitting and a loss of what may be years of income helping support the DZ and sport. If you see a student sitting around and they are able to now do free fall and your available, extend a smile and go up with them, If they did static line training only, be the first to pin them and that student ... Here's s a clue, buy that person another jump and get right back up there.

Well done bro

I'm on cusp of doing it at skydivedubai I'm thinking to learn in indo skydive first to make it easier for me to controll myself

I learned how to skydive when my Dad opened the door and said JUMP....

Yo! Thank you for posting this! I have been curious from a visual standpoint what the different cat looks like through the level A. Curious, are the levels the same across the board, or do they vary by country?

the first time you pack your own chute and jump has to be nerve-racking

Enjoyed watching! Brought back some great memories! I was taught to wave my arms more than that guy did to clearly show I was pulling my chute. Where is that jump school located? I would love to go there and jump from a helicopter!

It’s easy but it takes time to get used to the new environment. Kind of like when you first learned to swim it wasn’t necessarily hard to swim but it is a new environment. Once you understand that you’re manipulating the air than it’ll all click.

So bro when you deploy at 6000ft, if you main parachut has a malfunction you have time to try and fix it or cut it away, and open your reserve... by the time we are at 25000ft, we must have a fully functional chute open, either main canopy or your reserve.. 6000ft is only for students, when you are more experienced you can deploy at 4000ft and react fast enough to cutaway if main canopy has a malfunction

Virgiliu Oprea, Tunnel time is not required but it will certainly help you with stability (Arching). If you have access to a wind tunnel, I suggest informing them that you intend to do the AFF course and would like to get stable and do most of the belly maneuvers required by the AFF course, this shouldn't take too many minutes/flights to achieve but will certainly help with confidence. Again, not necessary but nice to have.

only after 100 or so jumps they say by tendam instructors then another 100 or so jumps by dual instructors then 50 or so jumps by one instructor to await approval of jumpmaster to be deemed approved for solo jumper then final examination procedures take place near to thousand jumps or something too enter or be legitimized for :D EPICERNASTRYNESS :D INSTRUCTORS COURSE which all cost around or so of $300 $400 PER JUMP depending on altitude tendam location centers selection or availability + costs are different to every country so you may aswell just join the army for the paratroopers or simply just record every jump at which altitude by which instructors location/business once every month or so depending how much you can afford and able to attend its NOT A OVER NIGHT TITLE EARN it takes time. But the bigger question isnt money nor availability of instructors or planes its how much adradiline can your heart manage to take before a complete cardiac arrest takes place upon exit or during jump or seizures black outs chronic head ache pressures of resistance barrier is broken not to manage major psychologic risks to ones mind functionality mostly OCDs, vertigo. Not for the faint hearted.

You get the same as in the video, but also get the last 13 jumps to "activate" your A license + the exam. This package also includes a 14 days stay at the DZ while you're taking the course.
