Learn To Skydive
Perris Skydiving Program (PSP)
Train With The Best
The Perris Skydiving Program is so highly regarded that people come from all over the country and the world to train in Perris. Why? Because our skydiving school is professionally staffed, our curriculum far exceeds industry standards, and our graduates are better prepared for solo skydiving than those who complete a run-of-the-mill program.

PSP Level 1 & A License Training
How It Works
Part 1: PSP Level 1
You must successfully complete PSP Level 1 before you can enroll in A License Training.
Part 2: A License Training
Includes 20 mins of coached tunnel time; option for free additional coaching with solo jumps.
You can complete the curriculum at your own pace, advancing to the next program level only after you have demonstrated mastery of specific learning objectives. By program conclusion, you will have the knowledge and practical experience needed to not only earn your United States Parachute Association (USPA) A License, but to also be a competent, confident, and responsible skydiver.

Above & Beyond
AFF vs PSP
The most popular learn to skydive curriculum in the U.S. is the Accelerated Freefall (AFF) program. AFF meets the minimum requirements mandated by the United States Parachute Association (USPA): perform 25 jumps; demonstrate A-License proficiency; join the USPA.
At Skydive Perris, we go above and beyond the bare minimum. As our GM Dan Brodsky-Chenfeld says, skydiving is a dangerous sport that can be done safely. We believe comprehensive training is necessary to produce competent, confident skydivers who are adequately equipped to be responsible in the sky.
We stand firm in our belief that AFF builds students, PSP builds skydivers.
