AFF Stage 1 Course in Cairns
- Duration: 8 Hours (approx.)
- Location: Mundoo, QLD
- Product code: PBOGI1
Prepare yourself for a life-changing experience. By enrolling in the AFF Stage 1 program, you can complete your first solo skydive, with the help of two instructors during the freefall. This exhilarating jump marks the beginning of the 9-stage AFF course that will take you closer to achieving your dream of becoming a skilled and qualified skydiver.
What to expect:
Day 1: We kick off with one full day of ground training. You will learn the theory and skills to safely perform your AFF stage 1. This includes learning about the gear, parachute steering, emergency procedures, and everything else you need to know to prepare for your first jump.
Day 2: On your first skydive, two instructors will assist you and keep you stable in freefall, but you will wear and fly your own parachute. After the jump, you will have a debrief and start incorporating learnings and tips in your logbook.
This is just the beginning of your exciting skydiving journey. If you decide that skydiving is for you, then it is time for AFF Stage 2! (AFF Stages 2-9 don't require a full day course, just 15-20 min briefings prior to the jump)
