airtwardo 7 #1 May 16, 2011 Haven't been down in a few weeks... Large map showing the separate and distinct landing areas. Hardcore swoopers on a separate pass. Manifest announcing landing direction on the hour and the loader asking if there were any questions regarding pattern, landing areas or direction.

wmw999 2,446 #3 May 16, 2011 Hot diggity ding-dang! I was there a couple of weeks ago; this wasn't happening then. Wendy P. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

ordie1 0 #4 May 16, 2011 I jumped there all weekend and between the announcements and the map of the landing area showing the landing pattern before boarding is a big help (& makes it very clear) for people who don't jump there very often. I saw one person land west when it supposed to be a north pattern and the talk they got was short, sweet & they were done for the day. What a badass weekend it was to!!!
