How do you feel about your DZ?

Recommended Posts

Recently i've started jumping at two DZ's that are equi-distant from my house. Both rock for different reasons.

One is primarily freefly, the people are rad and they party like you wouldn't believe. Plus my girlfriend jumps there.

The other (my home DZ) also has it's pluses. Some of my greatest friends jump there, the wing suit scene is growing and growing, they're letting me learn to fly with tandems nd teaching me the ins and outs of camera work and the bar is dirt cheap! ;)

i love it. i drive almost two hours, and three dzs are closer. but these guys love what they do, and they have created a whole family around it.



Amen. Same here... Oh wait, we live and jump in the same place. :)

First off, it's not my dz - I'm not crazy enough to own it. I'm just a jumper who happens to live close by.

That said, the dz I jump at has a plane that's fast to altitude, people I enjoy jumping and hanging out with, decent facilities and a beer fridge that usually has good beer in it. So overall, I like the dz I jump at just fine.

I roam around with Spence!:P

I like my "home" DZ (ECSC) but I also like to go other DZ's, meet other people and party with them.
RoamingDZ is the bomb.

LOVE IT! It's so cool to climb out of that Cessna and just hang. It's kinda old schoolish and they teach with Static Line, but I just had my best skydive ever (out of only 7)last Sunday! Oh, and I showed up the Saturday before and it started storming >:(
I spent the next several hours watching and learning how to pack! It was great.
