Josef97 0 #4 September 9, 2016 thanks.... so as far as i understand spain is the only option for good steady weather in europe during october november... and for my second question, i am pretty desperate for a good big parachute/rigger shop in europe that have reasonable prices for services and gear... because currently my rig is in a shop that asks pretty ridicules prices for reserve packjob, and other services... any recommendation will be appreciated...

NiteQwill 0 #6 September 18, 2016 The answer is easy: Empuriabrava. Great weather year-round and 7/7 workdays. I live in Germany (great DZ nearby) but when I was to jump, jump, jump I take a cheap Ryan Air flight to Spain."Fail, fail again.
