Item: V90805 THE FIRST JUMP COURSE DVD - NTSC

V90805 THE FIRST JUMP COURSE DVD - NTSC NTSC Only. At last, there is a modern first jump course training video available, and it is priced to be affordable to all. Over $10,000.00 and hundreds of hours were spent to bring to the skydiving community this much needed video training aid. It is broken down into 40 chapters so that instructors can teach in whatever order they choose. The video is not method specific although the freefall priorities section does lean toward AFF. It covers all facets of the first jump course including equipment, emergency procedures, actual staged malfunctions, canopy checks, freefall priorities, decision altitudes, landing priorities, air speed vs ground speed, landing patterns, after landings and last but not least, outtakes and bloopers. The advantage for the instructor is that he/she will be less likely to miss or forget anything and the advantage for the drop zone is that all the instructors will be on the same page teaching the same thing. This is also a great tape for students and new jumpers to familiarize themselves with skydiving.
