skyrider 0 #26 December 29, 2010 QuoteAnybody ever jump in Hawaii at North Shore? It was a blast and I was just curious to see if anybody else has been that way. Also, anybody know what kind of plane this is? I'm new to the sport :) We try to get there once a year, but had to skip last year.....We usually stay out on the north shore! Ed White is an Old friend of the family, he is a TI there! My son flew with us the last time we jumped there! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v400/onekick/hawaii1070.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v400/onekick/hawaii1082.jpg The view from the aprtment we rent, it is right on the shore, (not the cottages jumpers usually stay in) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v400/onekick/hawaii072.jpg [url] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fencebuster 7 #29 December 31, 2010 I jumped at Pacific Skydiving Center and it was a great experience. I had about 500 jumps when I went there. The landing area is good, but like DSE says, there are few outs and the winds are challenging, but constant. It is hard to think of a more picturesque venue to make a skydive. Next time, I am going to rent a house on the North shore so I don't have to drive across the island each day. When I was there they had a PAC 750. A nice new fast jump plane. SKydive Hawaii was jumping a Caravan at the time.Charlie Gittins, 540-327-2208 AFF-I, Sigma TI, IAD-I MEI, CFI-I, Senior Rigger Former DZO, Blue Ridge Skydiving Adventures Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
