This is good for a one of experience if you wish to have full control yourself or if you wish to get taster en route to qualifying as a skydiver. In short you will jump from approximately 3,500ft with a static line attached to the aircraft which will deploy your parachute for you.

More Info:
A static line jump can be done just as a one off experience or as part of a course to progress on to freefall and skydiving. If you have time but want to spread the cost of learning to skydive over a longer period of time then the RAPS course may be just for you.

It is also a good way of seeing if parachuting is something that you would like to carry on with without the expense of an accelerated freefall course. A single static line jump can also be done as a sponsored event for charity.

The Ram Air Progression static line (RAPS SL) course requires a minimum of 6 hours instruction. Courses normally last a full day allowing for coffee, lunch & tea breaks and normally take place on the 1st and 3rd Saturdays of each month, although other dates can be arranged for group bookings, with the jump normally taking place the next day weather permitting. Occasionally during the lighter summer evenings jumps may be undertaken on the day of the course.

Courses can be run on other days for groups of 5 or more if arranged in advance. With the RAPS SL method the parachute is deployed by a static line secured to a strong point within the aircraft. Progression is possible to freefall on later jumps.

Your first freefall can be as early as your sixth jump and will usually be a five second delay. The time you spend in freefall will be gradually increased and you will start to learn body flying skills such as turns and forward movement. About 30 jumps and you can qualify as a fully fledged skydiver. From here, all the different avenues of the sport are open!
