I did my first jump here, and thats what encouraged me to persue skydiving further. I will be going back there this spring to do my training, and expect the same great results.

They seemed very friendly an tightly knit, but very welcoming to others. The training was extensive, and well done. They are very skilled and very professional. I'd highly recommend trying out with Dropzone.

I personally love smaller DZs, and I felt welcome right away. I haven't jumped in eons, however I have been to approx. 70 DZs worldwide, so I have a little experience in critiquing.

I inquired about getting up to speed with jumping again, expressed some of my concerns, and was assured in a friendly way that they'd take care of me.

Tandem students had "perma-grins", and I will return to jump soon!

Professionalism   Vibe   Aircraft   Facilities   Services   Location

You simply can't beat the location. It's close to everything. The landmark to look for under canopy is US 131. You could walk home if you landed there by accident. Not that you'd ever want to land on a highway by accident... In fact, forget I mentioned that.

As someone who lands in relatively random locations around the airport, I can also say that there are a lot of flat places to choose from!

Look, I hope to see you there and I bet I will. It's where everyone from south-west michigan is going these days.
