Don’t Just Show Up. Show Up Prepared.
Most students are overwhelmed by the fast-paced academic training of their first jump. This guide gives you the full Category A Syllabus and the tools to evaluate your training before you even book your flight.
Most AFF Students Show Up Pumped—But Completely Unprepared.
Ground school is long and packed with technical jargon. Many schools (and students) focus strictly on freefall because it’s "the fun part," but your safety depends on the fundamentals—the parts often skipped over. You shouldn’t have to guess about your safety or the quality of your training. Get the guide so that you can show up prepared for your first jump, instead of overwhelmed.
