Ready for the Next Level in Your Skydiving Journey?
Become a PASA Jumpmaster!
Thinking about what's next after getting comfortable with your B licence?
Elevate your skills, knowledge, and role in our amazing sport by becoming a PASA-rated Jumpmaster (JM)!
What does becoming a JM REALLY mean?
It's a significant step that shows you've achieved a high level of:
β
Personal flying skill & situational awareness.
β
Understanding of PASA regulations & procedures.
β
Competence to supervise certain jumps & assist newer jumpers.
But the BENEFITS go way beyond personal achievement:
Deepen Your Expertise: Truly master the fundamentals and emergency procedures.
Sharpen Your Skills: The training process itself makes you a better, more aware skydiver.
Earn Respect: Gain credibility and recognition at the DZ.
Start Giving Back: Begin guiding and mentoring others in a supervised capacity.
Crucially, the JM Rating UNLOCKS DOORS to further progression:
It's the essential foundation and often a prerequisite for pursuing advanced PASA ratings like:
π PASA Coach: Ready to formally teach specific skills and help others progress? The JM is your starting point.
π PASA PRO Rating: Dreaming of doing demonstration jumps into amazing locations? You'll need your JM first!
π§βπ« PASA Instructor (AFF / Tandem): Want to train new students or give people the thrill of a lifetime? The JM rating is a critical step on the path to becoming an AFF or Tandem Instructor.
Becoming a PASA Jumpmaster is an investment in yourself and your future in skydiving. It opens up opportunities for leadership, teaching, and professional pathways within the sport.
