Intro to Terminal

Terminal BASE is not about falling longer.

It’s about thinking further ahead.

Higher delay introduces new variables — speed, separation, body mechanics, tracking precision, deployment timing. Small inefficiencies compound quickly.

This course is designed to introduce experienced BASE jumpers to terminal environments deliberately — not impulsively.

We use Monte Brento as a structured environment to build control, not chase numbers.

What This Course Develops

Over five days, we focus on:

  • Delay awareness

  • Tracking efficiency and increasing separation

  • Start angles and airspeed control

  • Deployment timing in terminal environments

  • Situational awareness during deployments

  • Conservative decision-making in higher-consequence settings

Day one establishes baseline standards — the following days adjust according to performance and judgment.

Terminal is earned, not rushed.

Planning Your Trip

  • Fly into:

    • Verona (VRN) — ~2 hours
    • Milan (MXP) — ~3 hours
    • Florence — ~3 hours

  • I recommend Camping Daino (close to landing area, multiple budget options, early morning friendly).

  • All jumps take place from the main exit at Monte Brento, Italy.

    The site operates on a structured load system similar to a dropzone. I handle all manifesting.

    Each load costs €20 (cash, paid to the driver).

    Typical day:

    • Early morning loads (as early as 5:30am)
    • Two morning jumps
    • Optional afternoon load depending on weather

    Each load requires:

    • 1-hour drive up
    • 30-minute hike
    • 10–15 minutes to gear up
    • 10–15 minutes to exit

    Expect roughly two hours per load.

Terminal environments demand precision and discipline.
