niro123456 0 #1 August 14, 2009 Hi all! I’m looking for a dropzone around Shanghai. I found one dropzone, but it is 8 hours from Shanghai (China GreatSky Skydiving Club located at Beijing Shahe Airport). Someone?? THANKS!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lost_n_confuzd 0 #2 August 14, 2009 I frequently go to Shanghai and have looked for a DZ with no luck. I've googled a few places but they've all led to dead ends. If you do find a DZ, be sure to use your own gear!

lost_n_confuzd 0 #5 August 14, 2009 My bad, I was going off of your profile. Are you just visiting China, or an Expat? But yeah, dude, I don't think Shanghai has any DZs. If you find one let me know Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lost_n_confuzd 0 #8 August 14, 2009 I used to live in Chengdu for awhile and my wife lives in Shanghai so I usually find my way there every couple months. If you need any help in Shanghai let me know, I can definately hook you up with some good people to chill with. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lost_n_confuzd 0 #10 August 14, 2009 None specific, I did a google/youtube search and found some sites/vids of a few DZs in Thailand. I think one was in Pattaya, looked legit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BMFin 0 #11 August 14, 2009 AFIK there is only one tandemfactory in thailand. The other one is not opened yet. So no AFF in thailand at the moment.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
