AFF Course - First parachute jumps (Saumur, France)

The first 6 parachute jumps of the AFF Course (Accelerated Free Fall) performed at CERPS in Saumur (France).
The AFF Training, is a learning method to practice skydiving and having as main objective to achieve autonomy in freefall and under sail.
Jump 1 to 00:10
Jump 2 to 01:40
Jump 3 to 02:55
Jump 4 to 04:05
Jump 5 to 05:15
Jump 6 to 06:35
The training begins with a theoretical day, during which are presented the elements constituting a parachute, the safety instructions to respect, the emergency procedure, the position in free fall, and driving under sail.
The first parachute jump takes place at an altitude of 4000 meters, accompanied by two instructors who follow the student throughout the free fall. It lasts about 50 seconds. The objective of this first jump is to obtain a steadily falling position.
The following parachute jumps are also performed at an altitude of 4000 meters, but only one instructor accompanies the student. It is then a question of correcting, jump after jump, the errors encountered during the previous jumps. Indeed, the monitor has a GoPro to film the jump from the plane exit (a Pilatus Porter) to the opening of the parachute, and the free fall.
According to the evolution of the parachutist student, the instructor suggest different airplane exits from the classic exit, such as a back exit, the ball exit or the exit of plane while being hooked. Also, several exercises are to be done: reading the altimeter, control handle, front loop, rotation, exercise back to a stable position after turbulence.
The AFF Course was carried out at the CERPS of Saumur: www.saumur-parachutisme.com/

We can notably mention the clubs of Fretoy le Chateau, Agen, Gap, Chambery, Avignon, Granville, Dieppe, Saint Florentin, Grenoble, Laval, Maubeuge, Bordeaux, Lille, Lyon, Nancy, Laval, Niort, Orleans, Arcachon, Royan, Pamiers, Corbas, Strasbourg, Vannes or Tallard for example.
