The Brief
Meet your instructor at Hillman Farm Skydiving Club, Darkan for a 15 minute safety briefing. We'll gear you up and practice the "arch" for a perfect freefall.
The Ascent
Enjoy a 20-30 minute scenic flight as we climb to altitude. On clear days, you can spot the WA coastline and the Stirling Ranges while breathing in the fresh country air.
The FreeFall
The door opens. Attached to your pro, you’ll drop into freefall at 200km/h. It’s pure, unadulterated human flight. Such a buzz.
The Canopy
Approx. 5,000ft, the chute opens. Spend 5-7 minutes under the parachute enjoying the silence before a soft landing right back at the DZ.

The core syllabus. You'll progress through 10 levels of freefall maneuvers. Start with two instructors and move to solo stability, turns, and tracking as you build your skills.
