Training with the Cincy BASE Crew will be an experience you will never forget. We will teach you all we can, so you
can enjoy BASE jumping as much as we do. We will make sure that you have a good understanding of each aspect,
before moving on to something else. With BASE jumping,
all aspects of each jump are crucial; and here are some of the things you will be learning:
- Packing your parachute - This is the first thing you will learn.
You are responsible for packing for each of your jumps. You will be taught a very reliable method of packing.
Also, we will show you the modifications you need to make for the different heights, and a few maintenance tips.
- Body position - From the time you step up to the edge until you deploy your canopy,
body position is the key to a good parachute opening. You will be taught body positions for different types of exits,
and proper movement for deployments.
- Emergency maneuvers - As mentioned before, BASE jumpng is a dangerous sport,
so knowing how to be safe is important. We will repeatedly go over each of the maneuvers
one can make to pull through the rare unforseen bad situation. These maneuvers should be
considered and remebered before each jump, so you are prepared for almost anything.
