The last two times I have been to Weston it has been overloaded with tandems. I only managed 2 lifts despite arriving before Midday on the first occasion. On the second occasion I was faced with a 10 lift wait. It is otherwise a perfectly good DZ.

I love this place, it really feels like a club where everyone is enjoying themselves. The great customer service is genuine, the staff and jumpers just seem to be enjoying the club and the sport. There is an infectious attitude of friendliness there. I've visited 7 uk dropzones so far and this is the one I'm happy call my home dropzone (despite not being the nearest). Great vibe. Fast Porter, beatiful scenery. I wish I was there now!

I arrived alone in the evening and while waiting in the clubhouse for my friends to turn up, I was greeted by the DZO and introduced to the staff and club members. I immediately felt welcome and well looked after. The loads were well organized, the landing zone lush green, and the Let 410 big and comfortable. In the evening there was a party atmosphere, fuelled by a well priced bar and good food. This is a friendly club. The owners, staff and club members made my group feel very welcome, and I would not hesitate to recommend it.

I've done a bit more research and I think I may go for the Pimp Daddy- it seems to suit what I'm looking for- a standard open faced helmet for which I can buy a purpose made d-box and cutaway in the future when I want to add a camera. Thanks for the advice

Thanks for the info

Does anybody know if the camera mount for the Freefly Imagem is dismountable? I'm looking to buy an open face helmet that I can use to rack up the jumps, then use for camera once I've got my C certificate. I gather that the helmet is available with or without the camera case, but I'd like to have a case that, when removed, leaves a finished looking open face helmet. I'd ask Rawa myself, but I just learned how to spell 'Portuguese', so I'm a long way from speaking it.

I have just flown my Symbi RW suit for the first time and I'm thrilled with it. The quality of workmanship is high and it is very comfortable to wear. The customer service was faultless- I was given sound advice on the choice of colour, and the suit arrived within 4 weeks of ordering. Based on this experience, I would not hesitate to buy symbiosis again.
