What we work on

THE JUMP.Frame by frame.

Freefly

Freefly.

Head-up and head-down flying, transitions, approaches, docks, fall-rate control, awareness, and flying clean in groups. Reviewed from the outside video, with your POV as reference when you have it.

Angle + movement

Angle + movement.

Your flying on angle, tracking and movement jumps: body position, speed control, levels, slot, transitions, break-off. Reviewed from the outside video, with your POV as reference.

Camera flying

Movement jumps.

Exit timing, approach, proximity, framing, and staying in the picture through the whole jump. Reviewed from your raw POV.

Camera flying

Tandems.

With over 10,000 jumps flying tandem camera, this coaching is focused first on the flying. We work on the exit, staying close as the tandem leaves the aircraft, matching the transition down the hill into freefall, controlling fall rate and proximity, and keeping a strong camera position without chasing the pair around the sky. From there we can refine approach, movement around the tandem, recovery when you get out of position, and staying predictable and close throughout the jump.

New to camera flying? If you have no camera-flying experience yet but want to get into it, I can coach the fundamentals from the beginning: equipment setup, safe exits, body position, approach, proximity, awareness, and how to start building the skills before adding more complex camera work.

Why

USE THEfootage.

Video never lies.

What you feel in the air and what you're actually doing are usually two different things.

The footage already exists.

Every movement jump has outside video. Every camera jump is on your card. Use it before the next ticket.

Leave with a plan.

Every session ends with three focus points, one thing to change on the next jump, and what the next ten jumps should look like.

FAQ

THEdetails.

What do you coach here?

Angle and movement flying, camera flying on movement jumps, tandem camera flying, and getting started with camera flying if you are new to it. That's the focus.

Tunnel?

Not here. This page is built for the sky.

What level?

Any. First movement jumps and first camera jumps get as much out of this as experienced flyers.

How fast?

Booking confirmed within 24 hours. Recorded reviews back within 72 hours, usually faster.

Time zones?

Recorded reviews work from anywhere. Sessions are scheduled by email around your hours and mine; the calendar invite shows the call in your local time.

How do I pay?

Wise, PayPal, Zelle or Venmo. Details come with your confirmation, and sessions are paid before the call.

Refunds?

No refunds once a review is delivered or a session has run. Sessions can be rescheduled up to 72 hours before.

Is this coaching or clearance?

Coaching. Feedback is about technique and craft. It's not permission to fly anything, or with anyone, you're not cleared for — that's between you, your DZ and your S&TA.
