The jump is in two parts; one day you will have a minimum of six hour's training and the following day you will perform the jump solo from up to 3,000 feet.
Points to remember:
- You will receive thorough training on day one for your jump on day two.
- You can choose from the traditional round canopy or the newer square canopy which allows you to steer!
- You will jump solo from 3000 feet, closely supervised by professional parachute instructors.
- You will be securely attached to a ‘static line’ designed to automatically open your parachute for you.
- This type of jump is the first step towards becoming a qualified skydiver if you opt to use the latest square canopy design.
- You will receive an official certificate to prove that you have completed a solo static line jump and training course
