Both me and the wife made our first S/L jump at Skydive Opelika. I have to say we were extremely impressed with the quality of instruction both from a practical and theoretical point of view. My wife had no plans of jumping prior to our arrival......... I felt so much more comfortable about jumping after the instruction. I don't know if I did everything right but came down and landed very smooth. Can't wait to do it again.
Buddy, JP and their crew have it going on.
These folks are practical, down to earth, and have NO problem sharing their experience. I was at another DZ 3 weeks prior and went through 1.5 hrs of ground school and did not get to jump due to weather. We had a solid 4 hours at Opelika and it was worth every minute (obviously!)
As a newbie I cannot comment too much on the equipment and such, other than it functioned flawlessly for all students involved. I cannot say enough about the excellent student instruction from JP.
If you get the chance check these folks out.
