I was at Lillo for a while with Mikey Carpenter who was running the Euphoria school there. Anyways mate If you need a place for the Missus to chill I wouldnt recomend Lillo for more than a month. Good DZ but theres not much else happening buddy. You should meet up with my guys in Seville if your going down there mate. Tip your hat to Jim or Mike at the freefly school for us. Im sure they run programs at skydive spain for what you need to do, check it out. You still kept in touch with Beasly? Good guy. I thought he stopped jumping and got back into fast bikes? All the best mate, see you for tea and medals at the BIAP. Andy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites tdog 0 #7 February 18, 2006 Well... It sounds line a road trip is in order, if you are spending 3 months solid jumping... I have stayed at the bunk houses at Perris and Eloy - and both are less expensive per night than a jump, and are nice enough for me... Perhaps you spend a month in California, visiting a few DZs... You will get top notch coaching at Perris. There is a tunnel there... Then, drive down to Eloy... Another tunnel, and great fun, with awesome coaches. Then, on your way out east, stop at Colorado/Mile High - another tunnel, and a huge pond to watch (or do if you have the skills) some awesome swooping... No bunk houses, but plenty of tent space at the DZ, and people even have been known to sleep in the hangar or even in the king air over night. Then, I would hit up Florida... Orlando - another tunnel, and a bunch of DZs - although I have not (yet) been to the DZs down there... If you want 3 months of solid jumping, why limit yourself to one DZ???

Good DZ, King Air with standard loads to 15K, not unusual to go to 18K, bunk house, affordable part of the state, fantastic beach, near lots of other cool stuff.

Its cheap, on a beach, loads of other non skydiving activities, BPA instructors, close to the UK when the time comes to get your ratings, lots of accommodation, loads of visiting skydivers, different events on all spring/summer.

If you have not gone to Eloy before it is a for sure a place that you could spend months on end at. Dont bother coming back to the UK, lots of rain, wind and plain cold. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

Not to mention that it's got a great vibe, you'll get heaps of jumps in -- even during the week, learn tons from some of the best instructors around, and will find plenty of people to jump with. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up.
