Novice Introduction
Tandem: You may make a tandem jump on our parachute made for two. No class is required. Our licensed and rated tandem pilots will assist you through both a 5000’ freefall and 5000’ parachute ride. Tandem parachuting is the easiest way to experience both the thrill of freefall and the tranquility of parachuting. Tandem provides a perfect introduction to our sport.
Solo: Highly motivated and talented individuals who are physically and mentally capable of learning skydiving may progress in a program tailored to their individual needs with a high probability of success. MSC has developed a unique method for training the sport parachutist combining the regimen of a university type setting with the USPA integrated student program.
After your first tandem jump you must complete our application to see if you qualify for our program. Each section of the course is taught in blocks which are prepaid and must be completed in a certain allotted time. Our focus is on safety via your being current, quality instruction and individual attention. Skydiving is a stressful and performance based sport that will test all your mental and physical reserves. On occasion students will be required to repeat certain exercises in a section which is why we are allowing a certain number makeup jumps in each section of the course. However we reserve the right to terminate your participation if certain criteria of performance are not being met. Safety is always our number one goal not just for you but for everyone in the sky! We hope you will find skydiving to be as fun and rewarding as we do!
Advanced Training: MSC’s perfect weather, superb facilities and equipment make it the ideal place for advanced or team training. Both ground-to-air and air-to-air videos are available at excellent rates. Excepting weekends, MSC has no minimum loads for jumpcraft, so you are not only guaranteed weather, but opportunity as well. There are no minimum load requirements for students.
Our parachute loft offers an excellent training program for the FAA senior rigger and FAA master rigger certificates, including an FAA rigger examiner.
