I began there earlier this summer and I can honestly say I would have quit the sport if it weren't for the people at this dropzone. They are extremely helpful and always give 110% when it comes to teaching. They are very safety conscious and know how to have a great time. They also welcome students into the night life and make them feel very accepted.

There are bigger dz's with more amenities but none where you feel like your with family.........Don't worry that you won't know anyone. They will approach you to jump. Come on and join the family.

I went through the static line course there and I liked it. People are really friendly, always willing to share the knowledge and help out. They really make you feel welcome there.
Even though I have bigger dropzones closer to my house, I prefer to drive for 2 extra hours to jump at ISC.

This drop zone is probably the the only drop zone that I have been to where the staff and jumpers all consider this place home. Big landing area and a Blade Course. All experience levels seem to be welcomed and invited. So if you are in the area this place should definitely be on your to visit list.

I live in Richmond,IN and I drive 3 hours to go jump c-182's, when I could stay home and jump turbines. There is also great night life around the area!

The DZ clearly exists not to make money, but to provide a place for people to jump. There are 2 C182, and lift tickets are merely $15. Staff is very professional and fun. I would definitely recommend this DZ to anyone who wants to try jumping for the first time as well as experienced jumpers. If you live in midwest this place should be on your list of DZs visited regularly. (By the way, DZ is also the home of OPL team.)
