I finally got a chance to breakdown the cost of skydiving from AFF to C License. I began skydiving in 2019 and made it to my C License within 2 years. The costs provided in this video are in USD. Let me know if you think I got a good deal or if I was getting ripped off.

I have 84 jumps. Just got my B License last week. It's definitely not the cheapest sport out there, but I wouldn't trade it for anything. It's sooo much fun!!

@andyhwell8419 3 года назад

To be honest, everyone use to act like they would join me in skydiving and ask about cost and blame cost and blah blah blah. I gave up on trying to talk people into the sport. I told them if there down, ill be at the airport.

@JUSTUSZILS 3 года назад

I know what you mean. I’ll see you at the airport. Haha.

@ceecuz4447 2 года назад

Cost of a rig is laughable. Any mountaineering company could sell a quality rig for half the price(making 30%profit) at least of what you quoted.

@andyhwell8419 2 года назад

@@ceecuz4447 That mountaineering company won't know the difference between Velcro and magnetic riser covers. They won't know what freefly friendly means. And most importantly, they won't have hundreds of thousands of test jumps under their belt. I don't think skydivers will want to buy mountain climbing gear. It would be easier to sell seatbelts to motorcyclists.

Really informative video, thanks! I started AFF last year and spent around £1500 and all I did was levels 1,2, and two jumps at level 3 (failed both). That £1500 includes ferry and hotel travel and fuel as the closest DZ is 3 hours away. Going to look into booking a full AFF course next year and save for it this year. Will be going to a DZ that is an hour further away but open more days and jumps at 15000ft rather than 13000ft. Also going to look into getting tunnel time to sort out my arching issues. I havent seen many videos that cover costs of the sport after AFF so this is great to see. Hoping for a lottery win between now and next year haha! Blue skies :)

@McGregaFletch 11 месяцев назад

For peeps in the States, I suggest you save a bunch of cash by doing your AFF in Mexico. Much cheaper prices & they’ll still be USPA rated so when you go back home you’ll have the same licensing body to jump in the U.S. with no conversion necessary. If you’re from UK/Europe, same/similar story by going to Mexico but conversion is needed and being new to the sport you might have issues with Chief Instructors. but I knew some people who flew all the way to South Africa from Germany and said they paid pretty much the same as they would have but this way they got a ‘holiday’ out of it at the same time and went the static line progression route instead of AFF.

@nobloubartete 2 года назад

pretty much right. just add the fuel to travel to your local drop zone + accomodation + tunnel time if you want to be good

@JUSTUSZILS 2 года назад

That’s true $$$

I've never been an instructor, so I can't speak to that. Perhaps, go to a drop zone and ask to speak to some about their experience being an instructor.

In mine so far: Required 2 tandems at about 500 Plus 3300 for the class which includes ground school +23 jumps to get to the A. Any repeated levels or if you go more than a month between jumps it is additional. I had one reoccurrence jump so it cost me 3900 for an A. I just got licensed this month at skydive spaceland Dallas

My question is, now that you have your C license, what employment positions can you land at a drop zone or anywhere for that matter? Have you been offered any positions where the salary is worth it? I would love to make a living from jumping. Thanks for info

@JUSTUSZILS 2 года назад

Good question. I’m not quite sure. I just skydive for fun and have never considered employment in the industry. I think there are a number of jobs you can get before D and Pro rating, like becoming a Rigger or Tandem Instructor.

@Elmer_Buckwhistle 2 года назад

I believe you need two canopy courses ( 101 and 102) with a total of 10 hop and pops, or at least that is what Flight-1 sells. Could you clarify? Thank you!

@shittywheelies7403 Год назад

Is there any set amount of time that you have to accomplish any of the licenses in? Not all of them, I just mean like you have 2 years to get an a license (or shorter or longer or not at all!).

@JUSTUSZILS Год назад

To my knowledge you can take as long as you want, but depending on what license you carry, you may have to take recurrency jumps along the way if there are long periods of time between jumps. I’d recommend cranking through the B license as fast as you can. The condensed timeframe will help keep concepts more fresh while you are getting comfortable with skydiving. Obviously budget can be a big factor though.

Thanks Justus,, once you get your C license, (at 200 jumps) is that when you can learn to Base Jump? Although it looks liked base jumping (from a hot air balloon) can be done after B license. Thanks, great video - at first I thought it would be 200 jumps x $200 = 40k. So this is much more reasonable

@JUSTUSZILS 2 года назад

Much appreciated! As of the date of this video I believe you can start base and wingsuiting at 200. Blue skies!
