     Full AFF Package in South Africa (11 Jumps)

     Skydiving in Cape Town (South Africa) with Extreme Element
 
While the AFF-courses in Europe just consist of 7 jumps, we give you 11 jumps PLUS B&B accommodation for less money!
The AFF course is the best and safest way to be introduced to the world of free fall. Learn how to control and fly your body in free fall and how to fly and control your parachute. On the first three levels you will be accompanied by two instructors - later there will be one instructor at your side- he controls your free fall and interfere if necessary. Due to this intense single coaching your flying skills will improve fast. The course is divided into 7 levels, you have to pass each, in order to continue at the next level.

The AFF course starts Saturdays with an intensive ground schooling, later in the day you can do your first static line jump from 4000 ft. The main canopy is deployed by a static line attached to the plane. It must then be checked and controlled until landing. Catch a view of the famous mountain while you fly!

The next day starts with your first free fall. On level 1 you get familiar with free fall. Assisted by two instructors throughout the skydive you will perform a series of movements before opening your own parachute at 5000 ft and steering it to a safe landing. Improve your flying skills at the next levels to learn how to turn left and right, do a back loop, track and how to recover in your basic position to pull your parachute!

Once all levels are passed you are a category 1 skydiver. Congratulations, you are now allowed to jump on every Dropzone in the world! Improve your skydiving skills with instructors or other skydivers (at least cat 2) and apply for your license after another 14 jumps (see below).
