USPA A-License Check Dive Flow

Recommended Posts

Well, I am considering doing my check dive this afternoon so that I can get signed off on my proficiency card, but I seem to have found a discrepancy in the 2001 SIM. It is as follows.
On page 15 under the heading License Exam Instructions it says that an instructor must make a dive with the student to test their basic abilities (the check dive). It then lists the flow of the check dive. Number 4 in the flow it says the student is to perform 2 figure-8's and a backloop.
But then on page 96 under the heading USPA A-License Check Dive Flow, the 8th bulletted item says that the candidate must perform "a figure-8 and backloop."
So which is it? 2 figure-8's or one. Any opinions on this one?
In an argument, you can never prove you're right. The best you can do is prove that they are more wrong.

I think on the yellow card that you have to get signed off it says a figure eight and a back loop. That is all I did. Your instructor will make the final call though.
I'm all in favor of keeping dangerous weapons out of the hands of fools. Let's start with typewriters.
