Courses for beginners

For the absolute skydive beginner we have the right course offer. We offer taster courses, but also complete skydiving courses until you have your skydiving licence in your hands. Our instructors teach the AFF (Accelerated Freefall) course system as well as the conventional method. Learn more about the differences and advantages of both.

So don't be shy! If you have any questions or are interested in individual offers, please feel free to contact us directly. Of course, our head office in Fehrbellin - the Manifesto - is also available for further information by phone, contact form or directly on site.

Courses for advanced learners

Skydivers who already have a skydiving licence will find contacts here for various disciplines of skydiving. They are your direct line to try out, join in and learn something new. They jump full-time or in their spare time, are very experienced and many of you already know them. And they are not alone - in almost all the disciplines offered, they are supported by other qualified jumpers if required.

We also inform you about prices and dates for trainings and seminars here. Since the range for special coaching sessions, such as a wingsuit jump to get to know each other or a one-week team training, ranges from 0,- € to several 100,- €, we ask you to discuss your ideas and wishes directly with the respective coach.

One more hint: if you plan too last minute, some activities may already be full. It is certainly a good idea to plan ahead and register in good time.

Well then ... Blue Skies!

The different disciplines of skydiving

Skydiving encompasses various fascinating disciplines. These go one step further and turn freefall into a sporting event. The spectrum ranges from formation jumping to wingsuit flying. The air flow is used to perform various movements such as somersaults, turns and formation figures in free fall. TAKE OFF offers various disciplines that you can learn in different seminars and training courses and then practice together with us.

Formation skydiving
takeoff_fallschirmspringen-formationsspringen-2-500x281

Formation skydiving is the most popular form of skydiving. Several jumpers leave the aircraft one after the other and form a formation or several different formations during the free fall.

Freeflying
takeoff_fallschirmspringen-freefly-500x281

Freeflying, one of the newer disciplines in skydiving, is characterised by the fact that the jumpers take on every conceivable position in freefall and experience it, for example, overhead, standing up or sitting down.

Canopy piloting
takeoff_fallschirmspringen-canopy-500x281

In the discipline also known as "swooping", a small high-performance parachute is accelerated by a rotation. The speed picked up finally results in a long glide.

Wingsuit flying
takeoff_fallschirmspringen-wingsuite-1-500x281

Wingsuit Flying lets you fly like a bird. This is made possible by the large wings (areas of fabric between arms and legs) of the jumpsuit, which reduce the speed in free fall and thus extend the free fall time.
