The coaches will be the world champions from the PD factory team and some of the best canopy pilots in Sweden. You will have the opportunity to participate in a 5 day camp (12 – 16 of July) to improve your skills from the level that you are at. This is a unique opportunity to push your limits and develop your skills in a controlled and organised manner.
The participants will be divided into small groups with other people at your skill level and work with a coach for a day. We will be rotating coaches so that everyone gets to practice with the different coaches. Much emphasis will be at the actual jumping and all approaches and landings will be filmed for debrief.
This is a camp for the absolute beginner as well as the elite swooper
For beginners the first part of the camp will be a basic ground school where you may do about 4 jumps a day with extensive debriefing. As the camp proceeds you will increase tempo of jumps and level of exercise.
For the more experienced jumpers the emphasis will be on learning by doing. A lot of jumping with emphasis on high performance landings and competition elements for those of you how are into competitions.
Who can participate?
Every one with an A-certificate or above. Our experience is that the beginners are the ones who have the absolute most aggressive progress of all participants so don't think of yourself as too much of a rookie.
How much does it cost?
The cost of the camp is 3200 SEK.
This also covers bunkhouse and film.
An additional cost of 100 SEK will be added when you jump with a coach. This will be split between a group when doing coached group jumps.
For those of you who haven't jumped at our DZ, we have a Super Twin Otter. For jump prices please see
