  1. I have been jumping all over Mexico for the past 4 months and that is definitly the best DropZone I encountered : . Very pro / safety aware staff . Good separation between jumpers and tandem. Globally in Mexico the zones are more : I do tandems and occasionally slip a solo jumper but not too much is done for him. . Great facilities to pack or eat / drink (bar) . Cheap zone for accommodation + possibility to sleep on the DZ . Cheap for the jumps (400 pesos) + cheap for the rent (200 pesos with packing) with as new equipment . Two planes when I got there : Twin otter + Kodiak => Jumps at 13000 feet which is rare in mexico since most of the country is high up and you need powerfull plane to get so high. Most DZ use Cesna and propose jumps at 8000 feet more or less. On the "cons" which is not really a con, the zone is at around 4500 feet so you should jump a larger canopy and make sure you are not too easily affected by altitude since the jumps are made at 17500 feet above see level - Close to the limit before you need oxygen. I didn't feel a thing, a friend of mine felt a bit dizzy after a 3 jumps. . They are opened 3 days a week (I think saturday, sunday and monday) Globally, I recommend strongly this zone, especially if you are in Mexico city since it's pretty close by (2 to 3 hours which is short for Mexico) and the road is quasi only motorway.
