Set a date and jump!

You know how we are. We plan and plan and not get there. Set a date, go out there and make the jump! If possible gather some friends together to do with you. Making a first parachute jump or any course in a group is always much more fun and will have other people around to motivate you!

When you arrive and the dropzone, all bridges will be required to fill out a registration form and sign a liability release before jumping. This release is committed to verify that you understand that there is a risk involved in skydiving and you freely agree to accept that risk. The legal office is usually contain a contract or covenant by which you agree not to sue the school of skydiving or any other person if he is injured. Yes we know, all this sounds too horrible, but if you want to jump, you will have to sign these forums. It is part of any sport adventure.

Free sounds more frightening it is. In fact, you just have a feeling of "falling", while skydiving. You feel the tension and emotion of the area past. However, because there's nothing there for your brain to use as a reference point to tell you that you're falling, they feel more like you're lying in a column of air, floating.

When you open your parachute will feel as if they were pulled upwards. You are not going up. You're just slowing down quite quickly and that causes the sensation. His parachute can be addressed by a simple steering mechanism. A "switch" in each party in turn will allow the parachute to the left and right fly where you need to go. In most modern skydiving centers may listen to the instructions of the earth happened to you through a radio receiver and speakers in his helmet. dropzones In some instructors will guide you with batons in hand or signals once you get close to the ground. All this will come in its fjc. In both cases, your instructor on the ground will guide you in a nice soft landing.

Student doseles are relatively large, docile and forgive square parachute. This "big wing" is slow and soft landings. Note that the skydive is not over until it had landed safely. The vast majority of injuries occur during parachute landings so keep your wits about you, listen to your instructor and have fun!

That's great, but you can ask: "But what if the parachute does not open?" This is always a risk when skydiving, but if you keep your training in mind and stay calm should be able to cope with this. By law, anyone making a skydive has to be equipped with a main and reserve parachutes. Your reservation is his second chance in case of any malfunction of its principal. Reserve parachute technology has come a long way and is very reliable. All bookings must be inspected and repacked every 120 days for a nominal FAA parachute rigger, but has not been used during that time. Activating your reserve is something we must do, however. This is taught and practiced a lot during their training.

As an additional layer of protection almost all modern parachute training are also equipped with an automatic activation device (AAD). An ADA is a computerized system that maintains a liberation clock above its rate of descent and height. If you reach a certain height and decent rate is still high enough that it is clear that the system you do not deploy its main parachute, automatically releasing its reserves. Never rely on your AAD alone. Does what has been taught during their training, but take comfort in knowing he has a guardian angel.
