I would like recommendations on a Canopy Course, please.
Can't Post
I (begrudgingly) had to miss Germain's canopy course done at my home DZ, SDSL in late May. My fiancee did not want me to jump just a week prior to our wedding. Part of my deal with her for having to cancel my plans to attend the canopy course, was that I would probably have to travel to another dropzone where I could take the course.
Soooo, now that I am married and can get away, where should I go to take some canopy control training?
I see Brian in out of the country for a while, so any other schools come to mind?
* I primarily want to learn to be safer while under canopy, and to start to learn more advanced controlling techniques. *
Thanks,
Doug.

Scott Miller no longer does the courses. I believe he is preparing a DVD though.
edit: If there's no one locally who offers a good course, I believe Luigi Cani and Brian Germain are the only 2 people touring around the US doing classes right now.

What about the PD guys, like they did with the three day course in Sebastian last year? I heard there were a couple of those this year also.
I can't pretend to speak for them, and I know JT runs a few Flight-1 courses out of Elsinore, but I'm not sure how much of their time is spent on 'Essentials' courses. I know they do them, but it's not a full time gig that I'm aware of.

Cani uses Scott Miller's training videos/diagrams in his class.

Just took course from JC. very good course. I think the PD guys will come to you with the correct amount of jumpers. I did not set ours up but JC came to Skydive Dallas. Did not know that Scott is no longer doing the course, i have taken his also and it is a very good course also.
