humbled1 0 #5 January 27, 2010 there are at least 2 balloon companies that operate out of Perris. They both cost $75 a jumper but I am pretty sure they have different minimums regarding the amount of jumpers needed. Here is a link to one of them: http://balloonskydive.com (If you do use the one above tell Dan that Steve from Elsinore sent you!! ) I know the phone number for the other one is on the bulletin board at Elsinore I will be down there Friday and I can get it if you want. (I have biz cards for both somewhere but cannot find crap since I moved last month!) I THINK the company I listed above will take a smaller group. Also Skydive San Diego WAS doing helicopter jumps one (the last?) weekend (sunday?) a month. I would call them since their website has no info regarding that. Not sure if it is still going on but they were last year. Cya.. "Tell ya the truth, I don't think this is a brains kind of operation." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
f1racer696 0 #6 January 27, 2010 thats great! dont worry about calling skydive SD i can do that. but yeah next time your out there and can get that number that would be awesome, only if its no trouble, dont worry about it if you cant. but thanks for the info! very helpful. i found one place in Temecula but its 150 per person, and i need at least 4. thanks again!

humbled1 0 #7 January 27, 2010 $150 is rape....pretty sure Dan will take up 4 or 5 people, but the other company (bigger basket) needs 8 or more. If you need a couple more jumpers to make a load I may jump plus I know a few others that may want to jump, just depends when. I would not pay more than $75, personally, I think $75 is alot but I understand why they have to charge that to make it worthwhile for them. let me know when you have a date, the jumps are always early in the morning (as far as I know) I will get the other number when I am down there on Friday"Tell ya the truth, I don't think this is a brains kind of operation."

f1racer696 0 #8 January 27, 2010 Ya I thought 150 was a bit steap. 75 is still alot but more reasonable and fairly understandable. It's just kind of one of those things I would like to so at least once. My friends and I are going down to San Diego most likely may 24-28 so we would probably do it either at the beginning or the end of the trip. oh dude DUde DUDE BRO DUDE. omg DUDE! ummmmm. i forgot....
