  1. Me and a mate visited just before Christmas, and as in my previous visits loved the place. It may not send the loads all day every day like Deland or Eloy, but the planes and DZ are great. Personally I don't mind jumping, packing, manifesting, relaxing etc.. as I don't normally set jump number goals for a day, so Z-Hills is perfect. Polite, friendly staff, and a wealth of information around. Freefly scene rocks, Colon truely is one of the best, and the locals are all very friendly. RW, Crew, Swooping scenes are also very active so what more could you want! This place rocks, check it out.

  2. Wow, what a place. Went to Deland thinking it was going to be flat teams only!! How wrong. Sure it is team heaven and lots of teams training, but there are also fun jumpers and a good freefly scene. We were there for freeflying and loved it. Run very professionally, there is a real feel that the people jumping there came to get better. Different to ZHills, but me and my mate came away very impressed indeed. Also great tunnel flyer coaches located there, and Orlando is only 50 mins away. We'll be back soon!

  3. Firstly, what a great DZ. The airport is not too busy, nice hangar for packing and the landing area is large. Jumping altitude is either 15'000 or 18'000!!!!! The 15'000 jumps are perfect and for only $19 or $18. They fly a King Air which does 15k in 6.5 minutes, and the 18k in 8 minutes, no BS!!!! The view is amazing, and there is a bunk house which is free if you do 5 or more jumps per day. Only thing that sucks is the Mon-Fir jumping is non-existant, but that probably adds to the character and is what the owners want. To summarise, not a major DZ, but really really good, just wish they did more loads mid-week.
