mac2501 0 #1 October 6, 2013 Hi guys, I’m looking at coming to Florida sometime in November for 2 weeks and I’m interested in some canopy coaching ideally 10 out of the 14 days. I have just short of 1500 jumps (but I’m not current as I’m serving in Afghanistan at the moment) Just putting the feelers out really to see costs and who I should be talking to, obviously I know the PD Guys and other local legends live in the Florida area but I’m looking for someone to work with me consistently over the 2 week period rather than changing coach every day. Thoughts/advice greatly appreciated Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 35 #3 October 7, 2013 Do you have any idea which dropzone you want to go to? Are you looking to do other activities in the area, or do you strictly want to skydive all day, every day? Do you want to camp, rent a RV on the dropzone, or stay nearby in a bunkhouse or hotel? Will you have a car?She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mac2501 0 #5 October 7, 2013 I was thinking of either Z Hills or Deland, i will have a car, and either a hotel or bunkhouse ( if they have 1 man rooms) Mainly jumping with the odd day off. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 35 #6 October 7, 2013 Well, looking at the Flight 1 calendar, they have a course in DeLand the weekend of Nov. 9-10. I would start with contacting them. They probably know the list of bunkhouses and rooms to rent in the area. Aaron Stocum is over in Zhills. Of course, Curt Bartholomew is also in DeLand and does coaching too. Since you'll have a car and will be here for 2 weeks, I suggest you visit all the dz's in the area.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
