  1. konstantinovs review was word by word my experience, I wish I had found these reviews before losing £300.... I have been there 3 times unable to jump, by now I have given up any hopes. - "North London Parachuting Centre" is misleading, the centre is quite far from Cambridge. - They always tell you to show up, once you are there they say its unlikely to there would be any jump but things change quickly so maybe you should wait... By leaving these small windy they keep you fooled for hours (spending money in their coffee shop). I believe they perfectly know that there are some days weather wont change but they are never bluntly honest that is just not going to happen... - The website gives the impression that you could have a nice day while waiting because they have other activities, this is not true, there is nothing to do but wait in the car for nothing to happen. - The accessibility of this centre is poor, to say the least. If you don't drive then you're in a pretty bad position. We had to take the first train from London as well as a taxi from the station which amounted to £50, and we arrived at 10am, solidly at the bottom of the jump queue. Of course we could've come the previous day and stayed in the centre's accommodation but that would've amassed even more costs. - Most of the people there on the day seemed to be people returning after cancelled jumps so it seems their jump percentage is very low indeed. I believe the business takes advantage of all those people that get tired of showing once and again. If its so unlikely that there would be a jumping conditions they should not sell so many places and they should let you know in advance what is their "success" rate. By the way, the centre is surrounded by wind turbines - so the area is obviously prone to winds
