AFF Prices

[Kramer 0]

What is the going rate on AFF, from AFF 1, all the way to A license check dive?

Provided you don't fail any jumps (or at least not too many), and your DZ's prices are pretty much comparable to the national average?

I need to know how much to stow back over the winter.

AFF - $1200-$1400 for 7 levels
Each jump after that should be the jump ticket cost ($18-$21) + rental gear which varies + coach jump costs. I would say to put away around $2,000 to be safe.

Wow, this is all new to me too. I think that as a poor college kid, if i would have had to go through an AFF program, i would not have been able to become a skydiver. Thank god for Static line

Kramer , why don't you come on up to Canada and atake the PFF course (basically the same as AFF) (8 jumps) would be close to $1500 CAN. Just wait till our dollar drops a bit more and then it should only cost you a couple hundred bucks

[CrazyDave 0]

in the uk u can do a complete course for about 1200 pounds.

thats without the continuation jumps though

Gold Coast charges $1223 if you prepay for all 7 jumps

"GOT LEAD?"

[CloudOnMyTongue 0]

I'd say $2000 to get you to the end of AFF.

Then you'll want another $1000 to get you to the end of the summer.

And well if you want your own gear, buy a lottery ticket and hope for the best.

"All seven jumps" is not an A-license. Make no mistake, in the USA you are a student until you reach the base level of proficiency; the A-license.

That said, here is what we charge at Raeford for our "real" ISP-based AFF student progression:

AFF FJC plus Cat A- $260
Cat B- $170
Cat C number 1- $170
Cat C number 2, Cat D 1 and 2, Cat E 1,2, and 3- $125 per jump
Cat F hop and pops- $40 each for the two required
Cat F,G, and H coach dives are $70 per. There are several required coach dives in each Category.
Cat H A-license check dive- $115
Filler dives to reach the 25 jump level are cost of lift ticket plus $20 gear rental (or $60 rental all day).

We follow the USPA dive and canopy flows verbatim and have a perfect, no-cutaway or injury record since implimenting it.
