Skydive DeLand - Training Capital of the World
9 months ago
Supposedly, the little town of DeLand, FL, halfway between Daytona Beach and Orlando, is the skydiving training capital of the world. That’s where I skydived (2 weeks before college graduation!) and it was pretty much amazing – although, from what I’ve heard, it’s more expensive there than other places. Get other people to go with you because they have a group discount for 5 or more people.
My favorite phrase as told to me by a seasoned skydiver – “Whafo” – the name for people who stand on the ground and say “Wha’ fo’ you jump out of a perfectly good airplane?” :-)
