If I remember correctly they want you to learn backflying first and progress from there, is that right? Anyone know what the going rate for coaching will be in Lone Tree? In order to freefly in the SVC tunnel, you'll be checked out by the tunnel instructors. You'll have to prove to them you can fly on your back, and if you don't know how to do that, they'll teach you. There will be certain instructors that will have that instructor level to teach freeflying by the time we open. If those instructors are scheduled to be in the tunnel during that block time, you won't be charged extra for that coaching. Remember, it's just going to be basic coaching. If you want more one on one coaching from certain instructors, we'll be setting up a guideline for those prices in the future. You might want to book some time during our first two weeks of opening, as we'll have Joe and Rusty there doing some coaching.
