kansasskydiver 0 #2 July 11, 2005 sweet place, know some people there and have a good friend who jumps out there. it'd be worth your time trust me. i'm sure you'll hear more from actual jumpers here shortly. Mox Cohn was there coaching for free this weekend I heard and the Orange boogie is coming up<--- See look, pink dolphins DO exist! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Adrock 0 #4 July 11, 2005 Skydive Orange is an awesome place to jump with a good mix of freeflyers and RW. Friendly people, good party scene at night as well. I just moved to the area less than a year ago and there was no question to me that I'd make Orange "home". If you're coming out on Sunday, find me and I'll introduce you to some people to jump with; I'll probably be leaving early that day. Come check it out!

jumpjunkie2004 0 #5 July 11, 2005 Great DZ. Friendly people. They run the Otter all weekend. Nice balance of RW and freeflyers. I'm biased of course - it's my home dz Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildcard451 0 #6 July 11, 2005 Sunday, why would you ever want to spend sunday there? Spend saturday and sunday there But like sarah said, I happen to be a little biased as well. Not only is it my home DZ, but I grew up there. Hell, I can't be out there this weekend, so someone needs to take my spot Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weegegirl 2 #7 July 11, 2005 Orange ROCKS!!! Okay, I'm a little less biased because I did not grow up at Orange... I grew up at Tecumseh, in Michigan. When people found out I was moving to DC, they said "Go to Orange!" I was told I would feel at home because they have an otter and a ton of awsome freefly talent. They were right! I went to Orange first and still have not wanted to leave to check out the other dzs in the area. It's a very friendly place, and a hard place to make a solo. They welcome new people and go out of their way to make them feel at home. Their are plenty of belly flyers and great swoopers. Nice big hangar, great airplane, fantastic parties, and an unbeatable vibe. Come play with us!! And make sure you say hi!! Here are a few pictures from one of my first weekends out there. http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/gallery/imageFolio.cgi?direct=Personal_Galleries/weegegirl/Skydive_Orange I need to update that because SOOOO much cool stuff has happened since!!!!
