First flight wingsuit schools
Can't Post
I'm going to attend a first flight school this winter and was wondering everyone's thoughts/opinions on where to go. I'm very mobile and was thinking about either Z-hills with the new Wicked Wingsuits school or Elsinore for their course. Any other thoughts ? I'm in the Chicago area but it's too friggn cold to jump here now.

Well, this will be an entertaining thread...
They are both great. You will get a complete, professional course for either. There are also folks closer to home if you decide to put it off until next season.

Z-hills! We are open 7 days a week for this winter and have been having awesome weather! And ya, the Wicked Wingsuit guys are really nice and a great help, even when it has nothing to do with wingsuits lol

I run my school out of Arizona now and I hop between Eloy and Skydive Phoenix in Maricopa. I've done this for a living since there was such a thing as doing this for a living. Holler at me if you want to do it in Arizona. I've got ten suits.

UPDATE: I've packed up all of my toys and have moved to TX until at least March. I'm at Skydive San Marcos. I have a total of 15 suits here with me and can do FFC's, advanced coaching, and PF Coach courses for anyone interested.

I did my FFC at Skydive Elsinore this spring and can highly recommend it. They got plenty of suits in all different sizes and the staff with DSE, Joel, Darren and Tom is more than awesome. Groundschool was perfect down to the last detail, so the first jump felt like a breeze.
Besides, Elsinore is a beautiful DZ and has got a very positive vibe.
