Collective safety update day. USPA-codified format adopted by many Italian DZs. Not a course: an annual community reset on fundamentals.
The Safety Day is a DZ-organised collective event — typically once a year, often at season start (March-April). Lasts 6-8 hours, free for members, gathers all levels: from AFF students to 2,000+ jumpmasters.
USPA-codified format for decades, adopted by many Italian DZs. Typical structure: morning plenary on year's themes (relevant incidents, regulatory changes, gear updates), specialist afternoon workshops (freefly, canopy, wingsuit, emergencies), practical ground drills. Some DZs include demo jumps or community loads.
Attendance is not mandatory but recommended. Many Italian DZs use it as a vehicle for the seasonal refresher: attendees have refresher waived/reduced; non-attendees do it separately. Check your school's calendar.
DZ safety officer + regional FIPS delegate presentation. Anonymous review of year's notable incidents (worldwide), lessons learned, ENAC/FAI regulatory changes.
Two-handle ground drill in groups, malfunction recognition review, specific scenarios (line-over, canopy collision, pilot chute in tow). Multiple instructors, rotation.
Parallel tracks: freefly (flat spin recovery), canopy piloting (pattern, separation), wingsuit (traffic management, flat spin), gear (check, AAD).
Weather permitting: demo loads with organisers. Otherwise open community Q&A + final debrief. Some DZs close with aperitivo/collective dinner.
