jigneshsoni 0 #1 January 19, 2007 Where can I find out different levels for SL Progression. I am looking for something that gives details on each level as you progress. What a student is expected to achieve on each level? Something with video would be even better. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gato 0 #2 January 19, 2007 This is listed on the A license proficiency card and it's on USPA's website: http://www.uspa.org/publications/forms.htm#licenses If you don't have it yet, get a copy of "The Skydiver's Handbook" by Dan Poynter & Mike Turoff. This book also contains the card, but the USPA site will contain more up to date license information. Take it easy, GatoT.I.N.S. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rdy2skydive 0 #3 January 19, 2007 Also check out Tom Buchanan's book, Jump: Skydiving Made Fun and Easy. It's a great book and full of helpful information for someone new to the sport. Good luck. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #4 January 19, 2007 One example (this is how it is done at the DZ where I learned) FJC with first static line 4 x SL Jumps, the latter ones with practice pulls 1 x 5 second delay (stable exit, stable deployment) 3 x 10 second delays (stable exit, stable freefall, stable deployment) 2 x 15 second delays (turns, maybe tracking? can't remember) 3 x 45 second delays (instability drills - front flips, back flips, barrel rolls, demonstrate ability to recover from instability, tracking). There's canopy stuff on each of those levels, too, and you work on different exits as you progress. Spotting comes somewhere in there, I just can't remember where. Cleared for solo, then you do solos and coach jumps to finish up what's on the A license card. And of course each has associated ground training and learning objectives."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences." -P.J. O'Rourke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BIGUN 1,232 #5 January 19, 2007 Here's a "guideline" for the S/L progression. Here again... It's what category you're in that's important. http://www.skydivetoledo.com/learn/Static%20Line%20Progression.pdf?osCsid=5acd4bcf49e06e35fa544f51dc03a63d Edit: Now, having said that, with the number of jumps you have, you're using the Integrated Student Program (ISP), so your Instructors can evaluate your progression within categories. You "may" have to do 2-3 S/L jumps while doing DRCP's, or... anyway, it can be tailored to your specific situation.Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
