moretole 0 #3 May 3, 2004 skydive Nelson is brilliant (motueka, top part of the south island). Went there in Feb and i had a great time. I had only just completed AFF and they were happy to spend time with me and got me on solo consuls after one check out jump. I felt like a 'local' after just a few days! The view is amazing and that part of New Zealand is meant to get the most sunshine per year out of the whole country. (website: http://www.skydive.co.nz/) In so saying, it's the only place i jumped while i was there so i can't make a comparison. Lee Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jasmin 0 #4 May 6, 2004 I had a great time in Taupo. Jumpers are cool and if you can't get on a load at one operation, you walk down the airport and get on a load at the other!!!xj "I wouldn't recommend picking a fight with the earth...but then I wouldn't recommend picking a fight with a car either, and that's having tried both."
