LEARN TO SKYDIVE

The program is called ACCELERATED FREEFALL because the learning process is three to five times faster than other traditional skydiving programs; all the jumps included in this program are FREEFALL SKYDIVES. The AFF program is taught to a national standard, and designed to provide one-on-one instruction for the student who is seriously interested in becoming a skydiver, similar to private skiing or tennis lessons.

The entire AFF program includes seven levels of instruction, that is made up of nine skydives, with Targeted Learning Objectives for each level. These TLOs must be achieved to progress to the next level.

During the first two levels of AFF, students exit the aircraft with a tandem instructor. Subsequent jumps are made with one instructor holding the student's harness to assist in stability and give direct instruction during the 45 seconds of freefall. The remaining jumps  provide increasing freedom as the student's skills progress.

The remaining 16 jumps required to qualify you for an A license will be done with an Instructor or a Coach. You will be working on improving the skills you learned. This program has been developed over many years and is approved by the United States Parachute Association. All of the instructional staff at Falcon Skydiving are certified  AFF instructors.

This program is flexible enough to be modified to meet the special needs of each student. It is not uncommon to skip or repeat a level depending on the student's individual skills. Progression through this program is based on the capacity to perform in freefall as well as under canopy.
