Accelerated Free Fall

While we typically recommend making a tandem skydive first, your first time skydiving can be solo. As one of the country’s premier skydiving schools, Skydive Orange offers a program to get you ready for your first solo jump and the skydiving cost is not much more than a tandem skydive.  After attending a 6-8 hour ground training, you’ll complete a written test, and (weather permitting) complete a first jump with two instructors holding on to you as you exit the airplane. After deploying your own parachute, you will land it with radio guidance.

Voila! Even if it was your first time, with this first jump, you’ve taken a BIG step toward completing the AFF skydiving certification program.
