Remote coaching
Upload your landing videos, plus FlySight data if you have it. I send back frame-by-frame feedback, corrections and drills for your next jumps. Live video calls for debriefs and planning.

Canopy coaching, wherever you jump
Most canopy incidents happen to jumpers who progressed faster than their skills. My coaching gives you a clear, safe path forward, built on your own numbers and your own footage.
(High performance)
Take your flying to the next level
For experienced canopy pilots ready to take their flying to the next level. The program runs online, so you can train with me wherever you jump, without travelling to a coaching location.
We work on advanced flight maneuvers, precision landings, high-speed approaches and canopy control in different weather conditions. Through assignments and live calls, you get personal feedback built around your own jumps and your own goals.
Video lectures and virtual classrooms are part of the program.
Every program adapts to the pilot. Our first sessions are about understanding how you fly and what will benefit you most, so every session after that is focused where it counts. The material keeps evolving with you.
Whether you compete and want better results, or fly for fun and want more skill and safety, I'll guide you every step of the way.
Two ways to train
Remote or in person, every session includes a personal assessment, video analysis, a written plan, drills and follow-up feedback.

Beyond canopy
I also coach freefly, angle jumps, flocking and canopy formation, in person or by video review. Mention it in your application and we'll build it into your plan.
