freaksister 0 #1 April 2, 2002 Hey everybody!This is a quick Skydive Dallas update!SKYDIVE UNIVERSITY COACHES COURSEIt's not too late to sign up for the Skydive University Coaches Certification Course. Just give us a call. The cost is $400 and this rating also qualifies as a USPA Coaches Rating. (The SDU Rating actually requires an even higher level of both demonstrated teaching skills and flying skills.)Check out (www.skydiveu.com) for more info about the SDU coaches course.AFF CERTIFICATION COURSEWe'll be holding an AFF Certification Course on June 8th through 16th. Rick Horn will be the course director. If you're interested in attending, you need to register for the course through USPA, (703) 836-3495 ext. 315. As it stands right now, we anticipate having openings for part-time AFF instructors this season, so this might be a chance to offset your skydiving expenses.Blue Skies!Joe Rekart, General Manager*********************************************************************Side Note From Freaksis: If you've got any questions, please call the dz at (903) 364-5103. Don't forget that the Fusion Fest Boogie is coming up (HYBRID dives!!! Hugs and blue ones,SisCan you Trip like I do? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sebazz1 2 #4 April 2, 2002 $400 is nothing. You could have that paid off in less than one month of coaching........Also FYI I took the AFFCC from Rick Horn last year. This guy is sooo cool. He is an exellent instructor of students and instructors.SEBAZZ....... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
axe96bam 0 #5 April 2, 2002 The coach course should be about $50 plus jumps ( 2 jumps so 4 slots). At least I would not pay any more than that if I had to go through it! You can do it a whole lot cheaper than $400 around Chicago.Alex Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflir29 0 #6 April 2, 2002 I got quoted $35 at Raeford. Plus slots for the jumps. This is Skydive U so it's gonna cost a bundle!!! "I'm a danger to myself and everyone around me!"-Clay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
axe96bam 0 #7 April 2, 2002 I guess you are right, it will cost a bundle, but $400! I payed $475 plus slots for my AFFCC. I just would never pay $400 for a coach course. Raeford is where Chuck teaches it, right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skybytch 273 #8 April 2, 2002 That's a Skydive U coaches course, not a USPA coaches course - although those graduating from it will also qualify as USPA coaches. The Skydive U course is a LOT tougher and involves a lot more in the way of classroom time and evaluation jumps. Cost was equivalent for the SDU coaches courses held at Perris recently. pull & flare,lisa"But our reality is in fact entire illusion!"-Gregory Benford Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freaksister 0 #13 April 2, 2002 Thank You Lisa. She is correct. For those of you who jump to conclusions, take a look at what $400 is getting you versus $35. We are talking SDU and it WORKS. Yes, I am a freeflyer but I totally think SDU works because I have seen it. Then you are not only a USPA Coach but a SDU coach and you can make that money up pronto.Blues,SisCan you Trip like I do?

freaksister 0 #15 April 2, 2002 Also, please note that the AFFCC is separate from the SDU Coaches Course. These are two totally different animals!! heheSisCan you Trip like I do? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We are talking SDU and it WORKS"Well, I strongly disagree that money is a factor here - I think it really depends on the CC Director. And I guess to each their own. If someone can justify spending $400 on a coaches course than by all means that is their business. Alex Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
