The price includes all the basic accessories needed as a skydiver(yours to keep) - tailored jumpsuit, altimeter, helmet, goggles, logbook and British Parachute Assn Membership. The accelerated freefall course includes 8 skydives.
The course commences with a full day of tuition. This covers the theory and practice of Skydiving. When your Instructors are happy with your performance on the ground, you will make your Level 1 skydive from 12,000 feet with two Instructors holding on to you. The AFF course is based on eight Levels of accomplishment, normally one skydive at each Level, and is designed to take place over a full week. Given good weather, the course may sometimes be completed in a few days.
