Who wants to Skydive???

Why not come down and jump with us seeing as its $199 there and with a group discount you could save a little bit more. Are you going with anyone? Its more fun to jump with other people.

Because we have a coupon for the place in Davis, actually already pre-paid for it through Groupon.com. Otherwise, I'd have gone to Byron, I heard good things about that place.

Well maybe next time
 
hey ken, about how long does this take? start to finish, parking the car to getting back in the car?
i'm trying to schedule things for sunday, and i need to know what size block of time i should figure on.
 
Usually, it is first come, first serve at the jump place. My experience has been pretty much plan on it being an all day affair. The more jumpers in the party the longer the wait.

That being said, if you haven't gone DO IT! It is a blast. My next trip is for this summer and my crew have decided it will be a Carribean Island jump this year (good excuse for a week in paradise, no?)
 
well, if i'm the only volunteer, i vote for an early jump. as early as possible, so i have some day left afterwards.
ken, its your call, but i can be there when they open, if it comes to that.

I will be there all day regardless but for you, you will probably only need to be there for about 1.5 hours. You will show up and need to watch a video on everything. I think it’s about 10 minutes or so. You will also need to sign some papers pay and then assigned to an instructor. The instructor will go through everything you need to know before, during and after the jump and get you ready in all the necessary gear that is all provided to you. We will then all load up on the plane and take off. From the time the plane takes off to when we land is about 20 minutes.
 
cool. pm me your digits, and i'll call on the way out there.
 
Ok so here is the info.

I will be out there early but for those of you who are coming out with us be there about 10am - 10:30am

just got back from the jump:thumbup it was bad ass!! Great rush can't wait to do it again! If you haven't done it you have to put it on your to list
 
Ken's a guy I'd trust for sure with his choices for skydiving. I'm gonna bug him about doing the cert course too!
 
Who all went today? I saw Mean Dad and someone else who rides a gsxr-750. (edit... 750 rider must have been shakeanbake636)

I was busy instructing all day so I didn't really get a chance to chat with the folks who went out with Ken.

I hope all the people who did their first jumps today had fun.
