OK - while the rest of North GA was whining and complaining about the weather this weekend, Skydive the Farm was up and running... as usual! I only made it out for two half days (actually less than that... 1:30 on Saturday and 2:30 on Sunday with 6:30 sunsets) and still got in 9 jumps... and some of those were to altitude! As usual, the Farm was the place to be - helpful staff and coaches (I'm a newbie), several packers, and a rigger were on site. With the big, open landing area, even a new guy with a canopy bigger than most cargo chutes felt comfortable this weekend.
I love this DZ - whenever a staffer makes you stay in the aircraft or on the groud during an AFF jump course because they don't like the current conditions, you know they're out for your safety and longevity in the sport - not just a quick buck! That's why I keep going there, learning there, and bringing friends and family there. Come join me! Ask for Woody or Hans - they were EVEN able to help ME learn to skydive!
