Jumping in Italy/Europe, first time off home DZ
miconar replied to miconar's topic in Events & Places to Jump
Thanks! I dont mind waiting for the loads, but do you think I could make 7-8 loads a day? I think that will probably be the daily maximum for me, and the whole point for going is that its difficult to get on 4 loads a week where I live :) -
Jumping in Italy/Europe, first time off home DZ
miconar replied to miconar's topic in Events & Places to Jump
Hi everyone! I just got my A license a few weeks ago and am currently on 40 jumps. I will be in Italy (Florence) with my family for a week between Aug 1st-7th (hoping to be around my 60th jump by then). This is my first time out of the country since getting licensed and I really want to get the opportunity to have a nice 5-6 days of making lots of loads (difficult where I live). Im looking for a place that will be friendly for a beginning skydiver, be open and have a descent amount of daily loads during the week before August or the week starting from Aug 7th. Alas, I also need a place that has rental rigs :) and maybe even sells rigs... 8) Im currently thinking about skydive tortuga arrezzo and skydive march. Does anyone know what are things like over there around August? What will i need to do in the way of paperwork to jump in Italy? stuff like insurance and USPA membership and what not. What can I get done on the dz and what do I need to have with me when I get there, besides my local license and logbook? Also, will I be better off going elsewhere in Europe? Are there any options elsewhere that are better for me enough to justify switching a country for the skydiving part of the vacation? Last thing: I still dont have my own rig. How do the rentals work in Italy? is it by jump or by day and how much is it? I would appreciate any help and information. Thanks a lot!!
