RTB 0 #1 February 8, 2003 What exactly do you have to do to get a pro rating? I don't jump in the US, but I am curious to if this could be something to copy where I jump. Is the system good? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jerm 0 #2 February 8, 2003 The long version can be found Here. The short version: USPA D license over 500 jumps on a ram-air d. make ten pre-declared jumps into a circle ten meters in diameter (landing within five meters of the center point) using the same canopy and must: e. score at least 75% on the PRO Rating exam 4) have the PRO Rating Proficiency card signed off by an I/E, S&TA, or PRO Rating holder indicating that the PRO Rating applicant has received training in the following areas: (i) ground crew-and served as a ground crew member on at least one Level 1 or Level 2 demo jump (ii) flag rigging-and made at least one jump with a flag (iii) smoke rigging-and made at least one jump with smoke (iv) NOTAM filing and certificates of authorization (v) crowd control (vi) post-jump procedures Landing without injury is not necessarily evidence that you didn't fuck up... it just means you got away with it this time Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wrightskyguy 1 #3 February 8, 2003 The system is good. If you complete all the prerequesites then you should have no trouble doing PRO demos. There are a lot of nay sayers out there that would disgree with me but I suspect that most of them simply can't or wont take the time to train and qualify.
