AFF Trial Course - Black Forest

Would you like to find out what it is like to do a parachute jump without a tandem master? The AFF trial course is the first step on the way to your parachute license and is just right to see if parachuting is your thing. AFF stands for Accelerated Free Fall and is the safest, most effective and advanced way to learn how to skydive.

Goal of the course
In the AFF trial course you complete the first level of the 7-part AFF training. You will receive a theoretical and practical basic training with the completion of a jump of at least 4000 m with two experienced AFF instructors. Our certified instructors will teach you the basics and correct possible posture mistakes during the first jump. In this way we ensure that you make fast progress and have a lot of fun. If you subsequently decide to complete the complete parachute training, the trial course will be credited to you.

Meeting & Programme
We meet on the first day of the course directly at the airfield in Lahr. Here you will get to know your instructors and fill in all necessary forms. On the first and second day we will deal with the theory and do ground exercises to prepare you for the jump on the last day. The trial jump is done at least 4000 m and two AFF instructors are always at your side to give professional instruction.
