The most common entry point for beginners is Tandem skydiving. You jump in tandem with an experienced instructor who controls the parachute and ensures safety. Tandem jumps provide a thrilling introduction to skydiving. For those looking to become licensed solo skydivers, the AFF course is a comprehensive training program. It typically consists of a series of jumps with progressive levels of responsibility and complexity. Students learn to deploy their own parachutes and control their freefall. A static line jump involves deploying the parachute immediately upon exiting the aircraft. Static line courses are often used in military training, but they can be an option for civilian students as well. AFF Instructor Course is for experienced skydivers who want to become AFF instructors themselves. It involves additional training and certification to teach new skydivers. Canopy control courses focus on the skills needed to control and maneuver the parachute effectively. This is crucial for safe landings and canopy-related emergencies. Wingsuiting allows skydivers to fly horizontally after deploying their parachutes. There are wingsuit training courses that teach individuals how to safely use wingsuits and maneuver in the air. Freeflying involves performing acrobatic maneuvers during freefall. Courses teach skydivers how to control their body position in various orientations, including head-down and head-up. Relative Work (RW) or Formation Skydiving Courses are courses which focus on group skydiving, where participants work together to create formations in freefall. Training covers communication, body positioning, and safety aspects of group skydiving. For experienced skydivers, advanced courses provide opportunities to further develop their skills, explore new disciplines, and challenge their abilities. These might include high-altitude jumps, night jumps, and more. Swooping is a discipline in canopy piloting where skydivers fly their parachutes at high speeds and perform aggressive turns close to the ground. Swoop courses teach advanced canopy control techniques. Night Jumps and Low-Light Training courses teach skydivers how to safely perform jumps in low-light or nighttime conditions, including the use of specialized equipment and lighting. For experienced skydivers looking to transition to wingsuit BASE jumping, these courses cover the unique challenges and safety considerations of jumping from fixed objects like cliffs and bridges. For experienced skydivers interested in teaching or coaching others, there are courses that provide the training and certification to become coaches and instructors. Each course is designed to cater to specific goals and skill levels within the sport of skydiving. Safety is a paramount concern in all skydiving courses, and participants are encouraged to progress at their own pace while mastering the skills and knowledge needed for each level of training.
