alphawolf 0 #1 January 30, 2006 I had an urge to go do a tandem jump again, which I did in Z-Hills. In checking prices it seems I can swing the AFF 1 course. I'm in Orlando proper and Zhills is much further from me than either Deland of SpaceCenter. I prefer weekdays as I'm more busy on weekends. I've run searched on both here and they both seem to have good reps. So, which DZ to pick for AFF 1? TIARegards, AW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fr33flyr 0 #2 January 30, 2006 IMHO Space Center all the way Both places are great facilities with very talented staff but the people at SSC are extremely friendly and the view is much better. _______________________________ I like life....It's something to do.

jguy904 0 #3 January 30, 2006 SpaceCenter has the fastest and highest climbing jumpship. It also will support your jumping after you graduate. As mentioned, we have a great view of the ocean, the cape, and the space center. The instructors are very experienced and if you are coming out during the week you will get lots of attention.

BMFin 0 #4 January 31, 2006 The few times that i have been at Space Center I found it to be much less busy than DeLand.. At least during the week. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 37 #6 January 31, 2006 Check out Lake Wales also, it's even closer to Orlando. You'll get good training at any of the dz's mentioned.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alphawolf 0 #7 January 31, 2006 Thaks for the reply. Nice to have another option available. When I map it out though, Lake Wales is just a *tad* further at 51 miles. No biggie though as the other DZ's are mid 40's...they're all pretty close. I lean towards SpaceCenter since I haven't been to the coast since I moved here.Regards, AW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
