Dumpster 0 #28 August 31, 2002 Sky Knights in East Troy , WI, to 13,500' is 20 bones for guests, 18 for club members. Cessna to 10,500 is 13 for members- 15 I think for guests but I'm not sure- (I've always been a mamber-) Extra altitude is a buck per 1,000' per person- Or sometimes I guess it could be taken in trade--- Easy Does It Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drenaline 0 #30 August 31, 2002 At my club is 25$ for members and tourists, 50$ for non member locals. All jumps are from 12k fts We are the ONLY ones in Panama to make jumps at 12k The other place make jumps at 6k to 8k fts and charge almost the same I think.

Scratch 0 #35 September 2, 2002 Lets put things into perspective here. It costs us South Africans around the price of 12-13 Big Mac's to get up there. What does a Big Mac cost in the States? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fudd 0 #37 September 2, 2002 Here in Norway at Østre Ære DZ a jump costs at todays exchange rate $19.80 in weekends. $17.10 in weekdays. In may it's cheapest at $15.78 This is jumps from 13000' with an Antonov-28. (Dual prop turbine, 10 minutes to 13000'. Tailgate exit. It rocks!) There are only 10 types of people in the world. Those who understand binary, and those who don't. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nigel99 521 #38 September 2, 2002 I recently got an email from Zim skydiver and it is $4000 per jump - which should be about US$4 on the blackmarket. But altitude used to be 8000ft AGL max. I guess its a case of whether you have the balls to go to the country nowExperienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived.

I guess its a case of whether you have the balls to go to the country now Hi I guess it fluctuates quite wildly these days - a couple who jump in Harare moved down to SA last weekend - they said they have to pay whatever the US$ rate is .... which still makes it one of the cheapest places to skydive, unless you are Zimbabwean!!!!!!

scotts 0 #44 September 2, 2002 The Ranch gets $15. You get more than 13.5 on most every jump. 14k plus is common. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkymonkeyONE 4 #45 September 2, 2002 $18 to altitude (generally around 13 or 13.5) at Raeford. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
howardwhite 6 #46 September 2, 2002 "The Ranch gets $15." And arguably serving the same market, Skydive LI gets $18 and CrossKeys gets $17, more for credit cards. Skys the Limit is cozy about its rates but claims to be "competive." BTW, charging more for credit cards seems to be a growing trend. I'm still trying to figure out why there are so many variations when fixed costs can't be all that different. The "northern DZs have to compensate for bad weather" has some appeal, but does Buckeye do gangbusters in August? Isn't the Ranch $!5 for members who pay dues, and how many members don't make enough jumps to make it worthwhile? HW Troublemaker Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scotts 0 #47 September 2, 2002 Yes, at The Ranch we do have a yearly membership fee of $55. But we get, $15 jumps, free beer and pizza on Sat nite and more. For me, it's well worth it. Non members pay $17, so it would take 28 jumps to break even. If you weren't going to make that many, then it wouldn't be worth it. While I can't say exactly how many paid members we have, i would guess that # to be around 500. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
