So, what’s it to be and where’s good for you? 

  • A Skydiving Tandem Jump: Where you can be in the air and jumping out of a plane strapped to an instructor quicker than you can say 'I'm not sure about this....'
  • A Skydiving I.F.F.  (Introduction to Free Fall) Course: This 2 day Level 1 Course is designed to give you a taste of our sport: Ground Training & an AFF level 1 Jump with two instructors.
  • Or perhaps a Skydiving A.F.F. (Accelerated FreeFall) Course: Where on your first jump you leap out of a plane 2.5 miles up in the air with two highly experienced instructors, quickly followed by your cameraman. 
  • Learn in a Wind Tunnel..... Vertical wind tunnels (indoor skydiving or bodyflight): You can always improve your skydiving freefall skills, or simply start to learn to skydive in a Wind Tunnel... 

Why jump out of a perfectly good airplane?

Because the door opens ;-)

Skydiving Certification - National parachuting associations exist in many countries, many affiliated with the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (FAI), to promote their sport. In most cases, national representative bodies, as well as prudent local dropzone operators, require that participants carry certification, attesting to their training, their level of experience in the sport, and their proven competence. Anyone who cannot produce such bona-fides is treated as a student, requiring close supervision. Skydiving Certification - All Extreme Sports Cafe Skydiving Courses follow the relevant skydiving guidelines set by the governing body for the relevant area/country. The USPA (United States Parachute Association) and The BPA (British Parachute Association) are 2 of the most common skydiving bodies, issued certifications and affiliated centers found all over the world.

Parachuting: The Skydiver's Handbook

The newest, most up-to-date, complete jumping text available. In 400 pages and 260 illustrations you are taken from first jump through advanced skydiving and canopy flying. The chapter on emergency situations is full of statistics and reveals the best solution to possible challenges. Learn all about your equipment; what to look for, what repairs you can make, and when to take your gear to a rigger. This book will be your basic text and constant reference. Completely revised, softcover, 5.5 x 8.5, 400 pages, 260 illustrations, four-color cover.

From the Author - Parachuting / Skydiving is continuously growing & evolving.

Dan Poynter and I have attempted to bring to you, the reader (novice or experienced), the latest information available which covers many aspects of the sport. It is our hope that this book will be used by you as a tool to increase your learning about the sport. We have addressed several training and controversial issues openly and honestly, attempting to give full merit to both (or more) viewpoints when more than one right answer is available. This book is a "living document" and will continue to change as the sport changes and grows. Each successive issue (from the very first one that I used to study the sport over 21 years ago) has been written with that philosophy in mind; one of continuous improvement.

We hope you like the book, and if you can think of anything else to add, please feel free to contact one of us with your suggestions! Blue, Clear, and Calm Skies to y'all.
