Course Outline |
|
|
AFF is an
accelerated method of skydiving instruction
which has been developed in the USA to
enable people to take full advantage of one
to one training and learning during
freefall. Accelerated Freefall courses are
one of most popular programs here in Spain.
As an AFF student you make your first jump
on latest state of art, purpose built
equipment with a rectangular parachute. Your first
jump will be a freefall descent from 15,000 ft with two AFF
instructors jumping with you and and
maintaining grips on your body and parachute
harness. These two AFF instructors assist
with stability and provide in-air teaching
information. Prior to each and every jump
the student receives extensive and thorough
training, covering both the freefall
learning objectives and the operation of the
equipment used in the program.
Successful students graduate to having only
one AFF instructor accompanying them by
Level 4. The instructor in freefall will
provide instructional input and subsequently
critique the performance. Students normally
graduate from the AFF program on or around
their eighth jump.
At this stage they have mastered most of the
freefall skills that would take their
static line counterparts about 20 - 30
jumps to achieve. The AFF program caters not
only for the person who wishes to graduate
and become a skydiver, but also provides an
opportunity for those people who would like
to make one freefall descent in a safe and
controlled environment - AFF Level 1.

Training |
|
|
The size of an AFF
class is restricted to a maximum of four people.
The tuition is on a very close personal basis and
yet is informal and relaxed, often on a one to one
basis. In this environment the student can
assimilate a great amount of knowledge in a short
period of time. The training comprises lectures and
physical activities covering all aspects of the
skydives that you will be making. |

The Equipment |
|
|
 |
Our parachute equipment is
the most advanced equipment on the market today. The
containers are United Parachute Technologies Vectors
with Skyhooks. The main and reserve canopies are
Performance Designs Navigators. The AADs are Vigil
2s. All of our harnesses are adjustable which means
that you can have a parachute that fits you
correctly and comfortably. Together your parachute
system is highly specialised for AFF. Jump
suits, helmets, radios, goggles and altimeters are
all provided by us.
We have a range of
canopy sizes that can accommodate almost anyone. The
largest main canopy at Skydive Spain is a Navigator
300 square foot. The main canopy sizes for students
then go down through 280, 260, 240, 230, 220 square
foot. What this means is that you can can start your
AFF course on a large docile main canopy and as you
gain experience you can progress to our smaller and
more manoeuvrable canopies under the direct
supervision of our instructors.
Our equipment is serviced on a regular basis by
Skydive Spain's
