Best location for AFF around south wales/Bristol area?
Hey everyone. Just wondering if anyone recommends any specific places to do my aff? I’m based in south wales, so the nearest DZs to me are Swansea and Bristol. Is one better than the other for learners etc? Id appreciate any input and advice. Thanks!
UK dropzones
I've got family in Bristol, just got my B license and for the next season I'm thinking of visiting UK and do some jumps there. Any DZs that are a must visit or that some of you enjoyed?
💰 Skydiving Costs
Jumps are around £30, but prices can vary. Check directly with the dropzone.
UK learning...
Hi. I think I'd like to learn to skydive following an amazing tandem experience in Swansea. Having looked at the different courses available, I see that that's 1 course just doing levels 1-8 and 1 doing the full AFF. Why would anyone just do the 1-8 levels?
