At Skydive Raleigh, we offer training courses for those interested in becoming certified skydivers. These courses are designed to provide students with the knowledge and skills needed to safely and confidently make solo jumps. The courses cover a wide range of topics, including parachute deployment and control, emergency procedures, and freefall techniques. After it’s all done, you’ll be well-prepared and ready to experience the thrill of skydiving on your own.
what you need to know
It’s important to be in good physical shape beforehand. Skydiving requires a certain level of physical fitness, so it is best to consult with your healthcare provider if you have any concerns.
Students should be prepared to commit to the time and effort needed to complete the course. It is required that you jump once every 30 days minimum and its preferred to jump more frequently to keep sharp.
Thirteen thousand feet above the ground is no joke, so be ready for this adventure. It doesnt feel like a roller-coaster or standing on a tall building though. Thanks to “relative wind” there is no feeling of weightlessness. Everything is so far away, it is completely surreal.
While we typically are not open during unjumpable weather conditions, it is always best to be prepared for a range of elements, as skydiving is an outdoor activity.
