Some would say we are old school... We put our students through some pretty serious ground training and carry out many practice drills to get students ready for all situations.
A common question we are asked - "what if the parachute doesn't work?"
Pictured here is an Emergency Procedure hanging harness drill where students get put through the test to see if they are ready for the unlikely event of getting a malfunction. This is one of the final tests before students get the green light to skydive solo.
Its important to us to spend the time needed to ensure our students are ready. No matter how long it takes.
In the photo is our new kid on the block, Ben who was lucky enough to start his ground school on his 16th birthday and in only 4 days he walked out with his AFF completed, one fun jump under his belt and packing his own parachute unassisted... before heading back to the city to party it up with his mates to celebrate turning 16 😃
Now he is all set to start brels and get his A license so he can have a skydive with his Dad.
