YOU CAN GO SKYDIVING IN MISSOURI SOLO ON YOUR FIRST JUMP

Are you the type of person that says, "This is something I want to do by myself"? You can skydive by yourself the first time, or this might be your next step after a tandem jump. Some people just have to do things for themselves.

At Skydive Missouri the solo training program is designed around getting your license. It takes 25 jumps to get your license. The first jump sets a foundation and we progress from there.

CHOOSE YOUR PATH AND START YOUR SKYDIVE TRAINING BY SKYDIVING IN MISSOURI

You don't have to start your skydive training with a specific goal in mind. It's always fun to jump out of an airplane. Although there are many different styles of skydiving you can learn. Once you get past the initial skydiving license you'll start increasing your jump numbers.

Skydive Missouri Training Instructor

Skydive Training Instructors are in demand across the US and all around the world. Becoming a skydive training instructor can give you the opportunity to make money skydiving. This is a great opportunity for people who don't like to sit behind a desk.

Skydive Training into BASE Jumping

Starting skydive training and getting your skydiving license can prepare you to learn BASE jumping. The BASE acronym stands for Building, Antenna, Span (bridge), and Earth. You achieve a BASE number when you have jumped from each one.

Skydive Training into Wingsuiting

People who have done wingsuit skydive training say it's like turning your body into an airplane. Instead of just falling you can fly, turn, dive, and carve through the air like an airplane. Because of all the additional material you have a lot more control over the wind.

There are different sizes of wingsuits. You'll starting wingsuit training with a small wing and progress up in size as you gain more control. Most wingsuit schools require that you have 150 skydives first.

Demonstration Skydiving

Skydiving in front of a crowd at a college or professional football game is very exciting. Like becoming an instructor, there are multiple levels of demonstration jumps. Demonstration jumps include flag jumps, jumping smoke, landing in a stadium, landing with the game football, etc.

Once you have 100 jumps you can start practicing jumping with flags and smoke. 200 jumps are required to start jumping into demonstrations. Smaller and more confined landing areas require more jumps.

Exit

There are several different ways to exit an aircraft. Each aircraft is a little different. The door size, exit speed, type of jump all play a factor in which type of exit is best.

Canopy Flight

Accurate canopy control is a skill that takes a lot of jumps to master. At first, your goal will be to land anywhere in a large field. As you get more jumps, your target will get smaller and smaller until you are landing in a 30-foot radius circle.

Emergency Procedures

On your first jump we cover all of the emergency procedures thoroughly. You'll be able to identify a malfunction and respond accordingly.

Equipment

On your first jump, it's important to understand how a parachute is deployed and how to operate the handles. During training, we'll cover packing, maintenance, and gear selection.

NOW THAT YOU HAVE YOUR SOLO SKYDIVING LICENSE

Once you have your license jumps get cheaper and you can jump at skydiving centers across the US. There are four levels of skydiving licenses. You can get your A-License at 25 jumps. It takes 50 jumps to get your B-License, 200 for your C-License, and 500 for your D-License. Each license gives you more privileges.
