AAD Announcement
Skydive Hibaldstow has become an automatic activation device (AAD) mandatory dropzone. We believe that the use of an AAD has now become an essential safety requirement for skydiving. All tandem and accelerated freefall equipment comes fitted with an AAD.
Exceptions: Solo hop and pop jumps made for the purpose of ‘CP’ or high performance landings and canopy formation jumps, both with the prior approval of the Chief Instructor.
