The freefall simulator is a valuable tool for beginners to prepare for skydiving. Here are some reasons why it is recommended to use a freefall simulator before skydiving :
Safety :
Freefall simulators are controlled environments, which allows beginners to familiarise themselves with the sensation of freefall in a safe environment. This allows them to prepare themselves mentally and physically for the sensation of freefall, as well as how to control their body during the descent.
Physical preparation :
Freefall is a physically demanding activity that requires strength and agility. The freefall simulator allows beginners to prepare themselves physically by developing their strength and muscle coordination.
Learning techniques :
The freefall simulator allows beginners to practice different freefall techniques, such as basic position, in-flight stabilisation and descent rate control. This allows them to familiarise themselves with these techniques before practising them in a real skydive.
Stress reduction :
Skydiving can be a stressful experience, especially for beginners. The freefall simulator helps to reduce stress by providing a safe, controlled environment in which beginners can familiarise themselves with the sensation of freefall.
In summary, the freefall simulator is a useful tool for beginners to prepare for a safe skydive. It allows them to familiarise themselves with the sensation of freefall, prepare physically, learn techniques and reduce stress before making a real skydive.
