surfbum5412 0 #1 August 25, 2009 For the past year or so at Perris, there have been only RW events; as far as freeflyers go, they have migrated to Elsinore. And people visiting the area have told me that "Perris is a thing of the past [as far the freefly scene goes]" Did Perris intentionally carve out their niche as an RW dropzone? Looking at who does the marketing for both DZ's, I know that Dan BC only promotes RW and at Elsinore, MEL promotes both RW AND FREFFLY. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although there is a 4-way team down there that's changing that a bit. >Did Perris intentionally carve out their niche as an RW dropzone? They definitely concentrate on RW because of the resources they have there to support it. However, on any given load there are usually a handful of freeflyers.

rehmwa 2 #7 October 1, 2009 "they grew up?" kidding.... I like a DZ that has a mix of every discipline - means more friends to jump with also, an atmosphere of people that do several disciplines is a lot more fun than hanging with a bunch of one-discipline wonders (and their shoulder chips) ... Driving is a one dimensional activity - a monkey can do it - being proud of your driving abilities is like being proud of being able to put on pants Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
