I can't wait to get back there this spring. it's gonna be a blast. I do like my new home DZ's...hinckley,SDC, and archway...I split my jumps evenly between them. like em all for different reasons..

skycat 0 #29 December 1, 2002 Learned at Skydive USA in Wharton Texas. Definately the best parties around, they weren't called the porno DZ for nothing. Unfortunately they are now closed and I've moved to Colorado. Still I'll never forget the people or the memories. Fly it like you stole it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ladyskydiver 0 #33 December 1, 2002 Still jump at mine. It's a great DZ. I do plan on visiting other DZ's at later time ($$ talks unfortunately - so it's not going to be as quickly as I'd like).Life is short! Break the rules! Forgive quickly! Kiss slowly! Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably. And never regret anything that made you smile. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 15 #34 December 1, 2002 Jump at mine still... 13 DZ's visited and its still the one that actually makes me happy... and can cause frustration at the same time. I was going to make a closer DZ home but I don't care for the planes there so I moved on.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Iflyme 0 #35 December 1, 2002 I still jump at the same place -- not a heck of a lot of choices when you live on an island! There is one other drop zone on the island, but it is more than 3 hours driving time north ... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skygirlpc 0 #37 December 2, 2002 I still call my first my home. Mainly because of the people. I think when you go through your training and all at one DZ you really get to know the people, you learn who to trust and who to ask questions of, and mostly you form a bond with those people, making it very hard to replace! I love my home DZ, Emerald Coast! Danielle Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sebazz1 2 #40 December 2, 2002 Cool question... I originally did my first jump and first 100 actually at Hollister Skydiving in CA. Then I started jumping at Skydive Monterey Bay and it quickly became my new home DZ. I have also jumped at several DZ's in the San Fran Bay Area but Monterey was my favorite place. I got all of my instructional ratings there too. As of this past July I slowly started jumping back at Hollister under new ownership. As off today my original home DZ is now my current home DZ. Adventure Center Skydiving in Hollister CA. It's really cool doing AFF or other work jumps with some of the same instructors who taught me how to skydive several years ago!

Vallerina 2 #42 December 2, 2002 No, it closed. However, my friends opened up a new dz a few hours away and bought the plane I made my first jump from! There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkyDolphin 0 #43 December 2, 2002 I don't jump at my first DZ any longer because I moved across the country. But now I can't even visit anymore when I'm in the area because they closed in 2001 after their only plane crashed. Rhonda Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skreamer 1 #45 December 3, 2002 My first jump was at an awesome place called Citrusdal (South Africa) in February 1993. I now live in London, but am really looking forward to a 'home-coming' of sorts when I go back to South Africa in April. I didn't spend that many weekends there, but did do both SL and (7 years later) AFF progression there. The vibe there is good (at least I hope it still is!

mouth 0 #50 December 7, 2002 I still jump at Skydive Atlanta where I did my first tandem. Thanks Howard! I have jumped at several other DZs in the area but SD ATL has the best landing area and some of the old people are still there. Those that have left I can usually find at one of the other DZs. I used to run into many of my home DZ friends while at Deland. Howard now owns and operates SD Flagler Beach so I even snuck in a cool beach jump with him for #300. -- Hot Mama At least you know where you stand even if it is in a pile of shit.
