Jocie 0 #1 September 29, 2005 Okay, so I'm ready to get started and need a little guidance. I have been reading these forums for the past 6 weeks or so. Had a friend that used to jump in Atlanta. He would ask me every week if I was going up with him that weekend....needless to say, never got to....now, especially now, it is time to get up there. Any suggestions as to the best DZ and instructors in Atl? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anvilbrother 0 #2 September 29, 2005 http://www.dropzone.com/dropzone/North_America/United_States/Georgia/index.html This will get you started. Read the reviews, call them to make sure they are open, and get the prices. Then make a decision for yourself about which one to try first, nothing says you cant leave and go to another dz if you dont like one. If you want you can go to all of them, or drive further out of state to something else. Postes r made from an iPad or iPhone.

Jocie 0 #6 September 29, 2005 That is what I am hoping...that I can talk to some people here or via email before I go so I can walk in there at least knowing a name, since my friend can't be there. I have read some great things about SDA and the Farm....now just have to decide Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any suggestions as to the best DZ and instructors in Atl? Go to Skydive The Farm. Awesome place to jump (of course all I did there was a tandem - by the way, Hans... you're hot)! It's in Rockmart, about an hour out of Atlanta.

Jocie 0 #9 October 4, 2005 Thanks....between the forum posts and the PMs I've received, The Farm is by far the most suggested. Now, just need to set the date....so excited. I will definitely be back to share the experience... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eule 0 #10 October 7, 2005 QuoteAny suggestions as to the best DZ and instructors in Atl? My generic suggestion: find out where a few local DZs are, then go hang out at each one for an afternoon or so before you decide. I did this at two DZs in my area - when I explained that I was thinking about jumping and just wanted to hang out for a while, both places were cool about it. Before I went and hung out, I was mostly planning on jumping at a DZ that is relatively close to my house. After I hung out at both places, I decided that the one that's farther away was where I wanted to go. Good luck! EulePLF does not stand for Please Land on Face.
