Fort Collins Skydiving School
Once you graduate from one of the following USPA approved Fort Collins Skydiving School training programs, you will feel more secure and can skydive with the Fort Collins Skydiving network at a much cheaper rate. The following describes the two most advanced Fort Collins Skydiving School programs available around for new Fort Collins Skydiving students.
Fort Collins Skydiving School Level 1
Your Fort Collins Skydiving School training begins with an approximately 6 hour ground school to provide you with a basic orientation including: aircraft procedures, freefall body position, canopy control, landing, practice parachute deployment, and more. Two Fort Collins Skydiving School network certified jump masters will be assigned to you and will generally remain with you throughout your Fort Collins Skydiving School program. During the approximate 60 second time frame that you are in freefall, safety is greatly enhanced by direct in-air jump master supervision. And to add to your safety net of protocols, you will land with radio supervision.
Fort Collins Skydiving School Level 2, 3, & 4
During level 2, you will exit the plane with two Fort Collins Skydiving School network jump masters, and continue to learn the basic skills for body movement in flight.
With level 3, you exit the aircraft with two jump masters and continue to enhance your basic skills. As your Fort Collins Skydiving network jump masters judge that you have enhanced your abilities, your jump masters will release, but at all times be close by your side; you'll now experience the feel of acceleration on your first solo Fort Collins Skydiving School experience with Fort Collins skydiving.
Level four is here, and your more than halfway done with your certification training! As your skills continue to improve, you will be learning "Heading Control" with 90 degree turns and forward movement; this time will be with only one Fort Collins Skydiving network jump master.
Fort Collins Skydiving School Level 5, 6, & 7
During level 5, you will perform more controlled 360 degree turns and forward movement; one Fort Collins Skydiving School network jump master will help guide your lesson.
Level 6! Finally! Your second and last solo exit with one Fort Collins Skydiving network jump master close by your side. You will learn more advanced maneuvers as you dive out of the plane; demonstrating delta tracking (gliding across the sky), freefall flips and recovery from pre-planned unstable body positions are very important skills to learn in this level.
The last leg is the best! While no Fort Collins Skydiving School network jump master remains with you in freefall, you make a diving exit and demonstrate your newly acquired skydiving skills. Video is a great addition to have during this dive, but as with any jump, it is an optional extra.
