First jump course

What the course includes

Theoretical training of at least 12 hours, which covers, for example, steering the parachute and dealing with emergencies. Then ground training with practice of the exit from the aircraft, steering the parachute and practice of the landing. We will show you video material and you will finish the course with a test.

After the pre-jump briefing at the airfield you will be ready for your first jump on an automatically opened parachute from an altitude of 1,200 to 1,500 metres.

What you will jump on

For the basic training we use HOP 260 Multi student ram-air canopies, which are very popular for their safety and reliability. All our parachutes are fitted with MPAAD safety devices, which secure the opening of the reserve parachute.

You will be equipped with a radio and an altimeter, a jumpsuit, a helmet and goggles.

What to bring and what to provide

You can find an aviation medical examiner in your area too — search the internet for „aviation medical examiner“ together with your location.

• Trainers and a tracksuit for the course
• Sturdy boots above the ankle for the jump
• A medical examination — a certificate of medical fitness from an aviation medical examiner

What you will get

On completing the course you will receive a club certificate, and a diploma after your first jump.
