rhuurrr 0 #1 July 15, 2001 Hey-I'm going to be in England in August(south, around London, Isle of Wight and Portsmouth) ans was hoping to maybe hook-up with some DZ.comers for some jumps and some pints(Skreamer, BenW, et. al.) sometime between August 13-17. I've never been so I'm not too familiar with the geography, what Dropzones are near that area of the country(and do any of you jump there?)Any help would be appreciated, looking forward to jumping and hanging out!Blues,Jack-------------------------------http://www.oneeyedjackproductions.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dadoo 0 #2 July 16, 2001 Visit the BPA site.Its at www.bpa.org.uk and has a map of the UK with all DZs marked with their details and also links to there web pages.Theres a couple around London, just hope the weathers OK whilst you are there.dadoo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RemiAndKaren 0 #3 July 16, 2001 You poor poor poor man....Seriously, have a definate look at the BPA site.And it depends how long you want to drive... not all DZs will be opened on week days (you said 13 to 17 which is Mon-Fri).Langar is open 7 days a week, and is a great place for RW, but there aren't too many Freaks around. Hinton is closer to London (1 hour drive, instead of 2), but in my experience there, you'd be happier if you're a Freak. I'm pretty sure its open on weekdays (Emma?)The military DZs are only open to Joe Public like us on weekends.One DZ that is quote close to London is Headcorn, but having never been, I dont know howe it is....Anyways, see you around, but since you'll be here during the week, we wont be able to join you (damm work )Remi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

huffermoose 0 #6 July 16, 2001 yeh i know life is tough!weather is not bad i had my protrack on on my last jump and i was doing a 2 way with my new symbosis jumpsuit booties and all. and i got a slow speed of 98 mph and either my protrack is not working right or i actually managed that the fact that normally i fall like a greased shit house.so that was cool anyway must go again women to perv at and planes to jump out off (they have got a new twin otter with seats gets you up to altitude in about 10/12 minutes ........ gorgeous mooooooooose Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
