This is an AFF Level 1 skydive. You will receive a minimum of 1 day training in basic skydiving procedures, freefall body position, canopy deployment, canopy control and safety routines. Your first jump will typically be from 12,000 ft or more and you will be held on to by 2 instructors. You will be required to respond to hand signals to adjust your body position, check your altimeter and practice deploying your parachute before deploying it for real! You will be talked down the ground under your parachute by one of our instructors using radio equipment. Your instructors will go over the skydive and examine the video with you and provide you with constructive feedback.
Congratulations - you are a skydiver! AFF Skydive conducted by www.affschool.com at Cark, Cumbria, UK.

  • @syntax0987 there was a 'wave off' of sorts: he performed the 'five - five' signal with his hands before deploying. AFF level 1 students are not required to perform the wave-off signal at this stage, just a signal to the instructors that they are ready to deploy. :)

  • 5:00 is amazing cool... nice camera angle and everything

  • robot and spaceman.com is finally here!

  • Didn't see a wave off... lol, it's alright, I forgot my first time too.

  • haha he tells him to extend his legs and he brings them in!

  • good vid, horrible music

  • No first time jump, just first time alone.

  • Hi from 2 mounth i start the courses Aff. It's so difficoult to stay stable in fall?

  • hi m8 can you tell me how long the course takes. going for it soon. 7 jumps and then a solo jump i think, is it a few days or?

  • im going for this course in a few months. never done it before. anyone know how many days it take as the school is a 5 hour drive from where i live.

  • is that save didnt use student parachute? oohh.. maybe it has automatically reserve open..

  • oh hell yeah ive seen that, guy got his rig caught on the elevator on the tail of a cessna (or grob or piper chieftain or navajo or something) he was standing in the slipstream and the wind somehow deployed his chute whilst hes in the plane...went for a ride he did.

  • Would have been a better video for first timers or student if you could actually hear the instructors talking instead of some corney trance music

  • WAY WAY WAY to relaxed to be a first time jumper.

  • Thanks alot did my first aff today with your help!

  • That opening looked like it hurt! the slider was already coming down before you had full extraction from the bag

  • dude i think when you are jumping from DC9, you jump from tail, right? I think cessnas lil bit dangerous. Because you can kick to tail. But in DC9, its under the tail. search as skydiving accident on youtube and see what happened in cessna. yeeyuur.

  • dj sammy

  • Go to Perris and throw yourself out of a DC 9 dude!....Truly Awesome

  • thats a sweet plane...why do i always have to jump out of small ass cessnas?

  • its the Marco V mix

  • old ecstacy technotrance makes me sad...

  • the first tune is Energy 52 - Cafe Del Mar.

  • it's from the movie human traffic soundtrack...

  • well the second part is 'fly on the wings of love' kinda remixed by dj sammy or dj brezza, cant remember which. havnt a clue on the first half though
