For those who wish to become more involved in jumping or have already tried the tandem jump, it is proposed the Accelerated Free Fall (AFF) Level One<\/b>.

The course of the AFF Level One<\/h2>\n

The jump takes place over two days<\/b>. The first day is dedicated to the theory<\/b> and the second day is devoted to the jump<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The theory course<\/h2>\n

During this first day, your instructor will explain the functioning of the parachute<\/b> and the various elements that compose it. He will brief you on safety rules<\/b>, piloting the canopy<\/b> and body position<\/b> for freefall. You will learn the hand signals that will be made during free fall to help you have the perfect position.<\/span><\/p>\n

You will learn to control your altitude<\/b> by controlling your altimeter.<\/span><\/p>\n

You will simulate the actions of parachute opening<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

During the jump, you will be accompanied by two instructors during the freefall<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The introduction jump<\/h2>\n

The second day, you can finally live the plunge<\/b>! You will have a recap from your instructors of the elements seen the day before. They will help you to put your rig on it will be time to board the plane.<\/span><\/p>\n

At the drop altitude, you exit the plane with the two monitors holding onto you.<\/span><\/p>\n

During free fall you will follow the directions of the latters, to best adjust your body position.<\/span><\/p>\n

At the opening height you open your parachute yourself (if you forget the instructor will do) and you will fly your canopy, guided by radio until landing.<\/span><\/p>\n
