I went in vacation to Italy with my girlfriend and decided to skydive ( always bring my rig with me Just in case).
Well this time was the case, look up dz.com and found The Zoo skydive 1.5 hrs From where I was in Rome, rented a car and went there...
Manifest woman does not understand about skydive and don't speak good English.
Dropzone is located right at the intersection of 2 highways west and south, if you go south is swamp if you go west there is houses, so you have to stay in your pattern all the time, North of the DZ is a big mountain, as a result the airplane (no seatbelts by the way) only flies East to West with the exit point right on top of the highways. DZ has a left hand pattern and right at the cross wind pattern has a huge power line which makes it very scary taking in consideration you are very low at that point and the landing area is not very grassy and with some rocks. I don't have a lot of jumps so it’s very difficult to find somebody to jump with me cuz most people there think they are skygods.
Not going back there ever.
