Might want to do a search on the forums.

But I have found ensleigh (Extreme Activity Insurance) and axa (Hazardous Sports & Activities)
cover skydiving and are reasonably priced.

They'll want proof that you have health insurance to cover you out there too though. This is also on the DZ paperwork (if you're going to kolomna as you indicate in your other thread).

My home contents insurance covered my rigs no probs. They didn't have a problem with the rigs being out of the country. Standard travel insurance might also have a bolt on sports equipment cover although this might be an expensive way of doing it.

If you have homeowners insurance, your personal belongings are covered WORLD WIDE for all causes of loss. (in MOST cases)

A renters policy could accomplich this same thing.

Double check that. Some policies require you to list items worth a certain amount.

And some cover up to simply a certain amount, but if you want specific coverage for a specific item, then you need to put a floater on your policy of that item. They'll want reciepts or a signed and accepted appraisal of the value of the item. This is usually done for jewelry, but can also be done for other things of value such as gun collections, little porcline figurines or skydiving gear.

In the UK it's less common to require receipts etc - just tell them what you want to insure it for and they'll tell you the premium. I can insure my rig for a million pounds if I want to pay the premium on it, regardless of what it costs to replace.

yes, that is true, but MOST personal property need not be itemized to be covered.

Jewlery, firearms, antiques, yes.

your 10,000 living room suite NO. Your Parachute will fall into this catagory.
