on my first visit to sdc i was met in the parking lot by the S&TA. she asked where i was from, had i been there before, what discipline i was interested in and what my experience was. i was directd to a load organizer who took me under his wing and took me on several fun jumps, until i chickened out. it's easy to get lost in the crowd at a dz this size, especially when you are travelling alone and don't know anyone. this wasn't the case here, i can't reccomend the place highly enough. i'd be a regular jumper here if the commute wasn't so long.

I am a newish jumper (21 as of this writing) and all my jumps have been at this dropzone. I started late in the year with a first jump course and just kept going back. The course was very informative and I felt prepared for my jump when the time came. After about 8 jumps, I took the PFF course. In my opinion, this is the way to learn to skydive. The gear is well maintained, there is always a positive vibe, and all the regulars are ready, willing and able to answer questions. For the experienced jumper, there are belly flyers and freeflers to jump with. Coaching is available if you like. Our annual Labour Day Boogie should not be missed! We are only about 3 1/2 hours from Bangor ME, so bring you american dollars and jump cheap!
