Australian Parachute Federation

The Australian Parachute Federation (APF) is a sports club based in Brisbane, Australia, that offers skydiving training and experiences. The club aims to provide a safe and supportive community for individuals interested in learning and practising the sport of skydiving.

For those looking to experience the thrill of skydiving, APF offers tandem skydiving opportunities. During a tandem skydive, participants are securely attached to an experienced instructor who guides them through the entire jump. This allows beginners to enjoy the excitement of skydiving without the need for extensive training or experience.

The club also provides comprehensive training programmes for individuals who wish to become licenced skydivers. One of the main courses offered by APF is the Accelerated Freefall (AFF) course. This course allows participants to progress towards becoming a licenced skydiver through a guided, step-by-step approach. In the AFF course, participants receive ground training, where they learn the necessary skills and techniques for their first jump.

They then progress through the course, jumping with a team of experienced instructors who provide hands-on guidance and instruction.

The APF is dedicated to ensuring the safety of its members and adheres to strict operational regulations and safety protocols. The club also offers various forms, applications, and resources for members to access important information and stay up-to-date with the latest news and events.

The club's physical address is Unit 3, Portal Office West, 2994 Logan Road, Underwood Queensland 4119, Australia, and its postal address is Po Box 1440, Springwood Queensland 4127, Australia. The APF can be contacted by phone at +61 7 3457 0100.

APF is committed to creating inclusive communities and acknowledges the traditional custodians of the lands, skies, and waters of Australia. The club encourages individuals interested in learning to skydive solo to join their community and subscribe to receive relevant information and exclusive promotions.
