  1. I came to elsinore with 13 jumps, with the last jump being 3 months prior (thanks east coast winter). In a day and a half i was able to get 6 jumps in and would have been much more if the wind behaved. No appointments or anything. I felt welcomed and everyone was willing to help and give you tips. Special thanks for the tips and help to: Lob, Chris, Mel, Chad, Mark, and Marie who put up with my babysitting the windspeed. Overall feel of the dz was relaxed - It was clear that people were there to have a good time. Nobody stuck-up and no jump gods to tiptoe around. Very accomodating! - in 16mph winds landed two tandems right next to each other on a white carpet so the man can propose to his girlfriend as they landed!! Only bad thing was that i wasn't allowed to rent gear/size of main that i have been jumping. That will not be an issue once I have an A license so its a very temporary complaint. Even when no one is jumping the dz organizes events and parties - for example I missed the priest/prostitute theme party by a week! If one were to drop everything and move out here I don't think they would regret it. TEMPTING! Thanks to everyone for a very memorable day of jumping!
