The course is always four days long, but the exact flow is customized to you in real time.

We begin with Object Assessment — teaching you how to thoroughly evaluate any object before committing to a jump. This skill becomes the foundation for every safe decision you’ll ever make in BASE.

From there, we break down the full Anatomy of a BASE Jump, isolating the skills required to master each piece:

Packing, Exiting, Deploying, Flying the canopy, and Landing.

You’ll also learn critical safety protocols and malfunction procedures.

Only once that groundwork is solid do we move to actual jumps. Your level of responsibility starts small and increases gradually to 100% — always at the pace that matches your readiness.

You’ll master these core areas with focused coaching:

• Object Assessment & Reading Conditions — Learn to thoroughly evaluate the bridge (or any future object), wind, weather, and how variables interact before committing to a jump. You’ll learn to see the “system” — how each variable influences the next — rather than treating BASE as a simple “exit-deploy-fly-land” checklist.

• Exit Technique, Deployments & Freefall Awareness — Clean, consistent exits and body position. You’ll practice different deployment methods and build reaction speed so you stay in control even when things don’t go perfectly. Early jumps often emphasize short delays and canopy skills before adding more freefall time. The priority is always quality over quantity.

• Canopy Control & Landing Proficiency — A huge portion of the course focuses here because most BASE incidents happen under canopy. You’ll work on:

  • Flying in brakes and handling different wind conditions

  • Accurate landing approaches

  • Decision-making under canopy

  • Emergency procedures when things change quickly

Most students feel the biggest confidence boost once they realize they can actually fly and land safely, not just survive the deployment.

A major emphasis throughout the course is canopy work. You’ll spend significant time honing your canopy skills — from accurate spotting and flight planning to precision approaches and soft landings. This heavy focus on canopy control builds the confidence and proficiency you need before moving on to other objects.

Mental Preparation & Self-Awareness The most important thing I teach — before any technical skill — is self-awareness and better decision-making.

You’ll develop frameworks for:

• Reading your own mindset and recognizing when ego is overriding judgment

• Asking better questions about conditions and your readiness

• Knowing when not to jump — even if the group or schedule might allow it

Confidence in BASE should come from preparation and sound judgment, not adrenaline or external pressure.

Throughout the four days, my focus stays simple:

1. You learn

2. You make real progress

3. You have fun

The more you learn, the more you’ll realize how much there is still to know — and that’s exactly how it should feel at the start of your BASE journey.

This course isn’t about rushing to a finish line. It’s about starting correctly, with the right habits and mindset in place.
