Many of our customers ask what licences or ratings we can issue here. There have also been many question about what the credentials of our location and instructors are. We hope this information will help you out.

Our Operation

Freefall Addicts conduct parachute operations on a dropzone (DZ) that is associated to the British Parachute Association (BPA). The DZ is owned by a British family who also own Target Skysports, the biggest DZ in the UK. The parachute centre is overseen by a BPA Advanced Instructor and as such careful attention is paid to the level of training that is provided.

AFF Courses

All our AFF instructors are qualified by the British Parachute Association and / or the United States Parachute Association (USPA) and as such are rated to instruct on our learn to skydive courses.

Our AFF school training system has been given written approval by a UK Centre Chief Instructor (CCI) and as such is considered to be constructed in accordance with the BPA operations manual.

After an AFF course has been completed with the Freefall Addicts we are able to provide the student with direct access to all necessary training to progress to their BPA A-Licence qualification. We are then able to give the student all the forms required to apply for their licences, including a contact in the UK to present their documentation too.

Formation Skydiving Courses

Our staff who coach our FS students are all qualified BPA FS Coaches. On return to the UK, the student will need to present their log book complete with the FS Coach's endorsement to a CCI, who will then add the FS1 sticker to their licence book.

Freefly Courses

Our staff who coach our freefly students are all qualified BPA FF Coaches. On return to the UK, the student will need to present their log book complete with the FF Coach's endorsement to a CCI, who will then add either the FF1 or FF2 sticker to their licence book.
