In order to become a solo skydiver, you need to do what's called an AFF course. This course is usually about 8 jumps helping you go from just starting to be able to jump alone.
Every skydiving association has their specificity and so do the different dropzones, that being said, the goal of this video is to give you an overview of the skills you need to develop to become a solo skydiver.
Skydiving is an amazing sport so just start by asking your local dropzone how you can get started!
**Special thanks to the skydivers who shared their AFF videos with me for this video.

I start my aff training tomorrow in sunny so cal. I'm nervous and excited.
I hope it got off to a good start, I'm about to book my course....still having to battle those doubts and fears though
@@scottynic2894 I understand. I'll be doing my 4th jump tomorrow. I would suggest... If you can, get into a wind tunnel asap. It will help you understand the way your body reacts to wind. On a side note: I hear experienced jumpers saying they get nervous. I think it's natural. After all... we are hucking ourselves out of a plane. You'll be OK. You are with instructors a majority of the time. They will help build your confidence with each jump. :)
@@marcd4144 Hey Marc, great news 3 jumps already!!! I've booked and paid for the course since my last comment. I'll be jumping next Saturday the 19th there's just no point in putting it off any longer, if I did I know I would regret it. I might take your advice on the tunnel if i can get in 👍🏻
@@scottynic2894 Good job man... Keep it up. Stay positive.
@@scottynic2894 10 minutes in the wind tunnel makes a huuuuge difference. Game changer
It’s a lot different than when I first jumped in the 70’s.
A couple of hours of ground training then you did your first static line alone.
5 static line jumps, 5 hop & pops then you started free falls.
Once you let go of the plane you were alone and on your own.
Hi there, just want to say thank you for making these videos! I will be taking my 4-day AFF boot camp here in New England this summer - so I'm doing all the watching/reading I can. Cheers!

Ok so now I have added skydiving to my bucket list 🙃 🙂
1-10 aff / 25 for class a
n monday starting my aff
Hi Catherine, How many day usually to complete AFF Course? thanks for all your videos
It depends on your skills and the weather. I have seen it been done in 1 weekend (but a BIG one!). I guess that 2-3 jumps a day is good.
What price is Aff course
I want to learn skydiving so please guide me 🙏
What to do for tandem skydive er
At my DZ skydive the racnch in NY ( just started this year, first tandem and instructor jump within 2 weeks ) your first tandem is considered your level and 1 and level 2 is your fist solo. Is that unusual. They call it the IAF course. Still end up with a class a license after 25 jumps
Was there a waiting list for AFF? I signed up in jersey but long waiting list, have been waiting for the class over a month and not sure I even complete it this season . tx
@@alexxxmmm1 no not really
They do the drowns school 2x a week
I want to do this course so plz tell the location where i do my aff course.....i am from India....
iIm just curious, how quickly would you recommend (or require) people go through the levels to make sure the lessons stick? Daily, weekly, ect? Do they really have you do a back flip for the level 8 hop and pop?
No, you don't need to do a flip on your hop and pop. About redoing the exercises, I like to do them at the beginning of each season but after if you jump often you'll use them time to time so no need to practice those intensively. It's also as you feel it!
Thanks, I forget to check (or that I even have) gmail for replies@@SkydiveVibes
Hi Again, 1 question, I want to print something on my canopy, how much would that charge? I don't see it in any skydive school price list..
You will have to contact a canopy manufacturer like Performance Designs.
Where are you located, DROP ZONE?
Atmosphair, QC Canada
I see some AFF videos the jumper is required to do a front roll and other AFF videos where they only do back rolls....Do you do both in the AFF course or only one of the two?
Some also do barrel rolls & learn to fly backwards and to the sides
My dream to become skydiver but i didnt have money
Is skydiving expensive?
Extremely...
It's expensive to get certified... After that, a jump pass and rental gear whenever you want to jump is reasonable
Cost of aff course
In Amsterdam The Netherlands about 1250,- euro
did you seen my video i didn't pull 🤣😅🤣 i just posted now take look
Great video. Hands are a little distracting
