Experience the thrill of skydiving at Shotton Airfield with this exciting two-day Level 1 Accelerated Free Fall (AFF) course in Durham. This program includes all essential ground training, equipping you with the skills and confidence to complete your very first solo parachute jump. Designed for complete beginners, this course provides an authentic introduction to skydiving and is the first step toward becoming a qualified skydiver. No previous parachuting experience is required, and you’ll be supported throughout the process by a team of experienced instructors. On day one, you will focus on ground school, where you’ll learn the theory, techniques, and safety procedures necessary for a successful jump. Topics covered include freefall body positions, parachute control, and landing techniques, all aimed at preparing you for your first skydive. Day two begins with a refresher session, then you'll get geared up in your jumpsuit, helmet, altimeter, and parachute rig. Afterwards, you’ll board the aircraft and ascend to altitude. Following a final briefing and some last-minute encouragement from your instructors, the moment of your first solo jump arrives. Taking a deep breath, you’ll leap from the aircraft, experiencing the incredible rush of freefall with your instructors by your side. As your parachute opens and the stunning Durham countryside reveals itself below, you’ll have a moment to appreciate the view before focusing on your descent and landing. Touching down safely at the drop zone is an unforgettable experience, made even more rewarding by knowing you have successfully completed your Level 1 AFF skydive at Shotton Airfield. It’s a remarkable achievement and the beginning of an exciting skydiving journey.
