Skydive Skane

I just finished the first part of my AFF training and will therefore only review this DZ from a student point-of-view.

There are 3 full days of training and theory on the ground before doing the first jumps on the 4th day. In my opinion this is a great plus: this is the bare minimum to assimilate all the material and allow you to be confident once the time to jump comes.

The landing area is really big and you'd have to miss by about 100 yards either way to encounter any "risky" zone. The canopy ride is done on your own, no radio to guide you - hence the importance of the 3 full days of practice.

The price for the AFF was really good (9900 SEK / 900 EUR), and includes 10 jumps.

On the minus side, the usual clique spent nearly all of its time together, barely mixing with the students. I guess this is due to a mix of it being the "first" day of the season, the normal scandinavian behavior and, as students, having the infamous "10% retention rate" sign on our backs. There was a bigger than expected effort to be made to get to speak casually with people.

The DZ is reachable from the Kristianstad airport being 500m from the DZ or by train from Copenhagen (1h30).

Highly recommended. Great vibes, incredible scenery.
