Parisian 0 #1 Posted February 26, 2021 Hello people! I'am like, my pseudonym suggest, from Paris and i jump at fretoy le chateau above the cornfields and the great U shape haunted forest. (Some says it has the power to make disappear main canopies,cameras and helmets) Came here to find advice on gear and stuff. I have little more than 300 jumps and i still truely like every discipline in this sport(a part of accuracy, sorry it's boring). That makes me weak in everyone of them, but i least have fun. So long brothers and sisters. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmw999 2,439 #4 February 27, 2021 It depends on where you jump; COVID isn't an issue at US dropzones, other than the people who aren't willing to jump right now (and they definitely exist). However, weather is a problem in most of the north, as it's much less fun to jump in the cold. I live in the northeast USA, and there is only one DZ within a reasonable distance that's open for the winter. Most of them will open in April; they closed in November. In the southern US, DZs are open all year; some of them are destination DZs (like Empuriabrava in Spain), where people travel to spend a dedicated week of jumping. Wendy P.
