I was one of the idiots that got suckered into driving 3 hours to Cedartown Alabama to jump from the only DZ in Alabama. Well come to find out it is really in Cedartown GA and there are many other DZ's located in Alabama. Well just like all the others that get had, I had no choice but to jump here since they would not refund my money after lying to me. I think I had the equivalent of about 20 minutes max of personal attention during my AFF course and level 1 skydive which scared me to death. While I was there for my aff training I saw many other people that were upset from different lies they told, to name a few that I "KNOW" of: 1) They say it is one price to jump and then add charges to it after the students show up stating "it cost more to jump out of the big plane" 2) They say that there are no skydiving places in Alabama, I have also herd that they own all the skydiving places in Alabama. 3) With gift certificates that say Tandem skydive to 14,000 they charge the user more money to make that jump out of the big plane (Of course the person has no idea) 4) They ALWAYS lie about the weather, you call them and it is nice weather just so they can get you there. As another person stated during 9/11 they stated they were jumping even though they were not jumping 5) They state they have more experienced instructors and that is why they can jump heavier people, when the fact is the gear can only legally hold 500lbs total. They overload the gear whenever they have to so they can profit, who cares for the safety 6) They even tell people they are located in Alabama. That is what they told me 7) They tell people that video is $50 then they say once the people show up that they only do Video and Stills that day so it will be $70 8) They say (As they do on this site) that jump tickets are $18 when they are really $19-$20 and they even tack on a fee for credit cards on top of that 9) They say on this site that they offer static line, when they don't 10) They say they have a restaurant and they don't 11) They say they have a pool and they don't 12) they say they have RV hookups, of course they don't 13) They say you can skydive out of the point break plane, another LIE... 14) A lot of the people on the Staff page no longer work there cause they do not like the management As someone suggested before, if you want to call and make an appointment make sure and call the Alabama number, they quote you a different price at that number. It is cheaper. As well make sure you tape your conversation with them so you get what you were promised. As the title says, give me a break.
