You should always end your briefing with a question that asks if the student feels he knows enough to make the upcoming jump safely. More concepts will be learned on subsequent jumps, but for now those ideas could distract or confuse a student. Students don't need to know about dead spiders, max tracks or sequential formations to jump safely. Questions can test memory, applications and evaluations. A student must remember certain facts and concepts.
Some ideas are pertinent to a safe and successful skydive.
These concepts should be recalled quickly and without hesitation by a student. A student must be able to apply his knowledge in new situations and evaluate his actions. Republished with permission.
