BigSky 2 #1 December 5, 2005 Is anyone on here from Hawaii? I am going out in February and I want to skydive, I am staying on Maui so I will need to get over to the other for a day. I know I can fly Hawaii Airline form on island to the other but then I still have to get out to the dropzone. I was wondering if anyone knows of a private charter I could get to take me right to the dropzone, or maybe just have the jump ship pick me right up“Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and their hopes and dreams. If I didn’t drink this beer, th Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
renee673 0 #2 December 23, 2007 Hey there...I'm in Hawaii and learned at skydive hawaii. There is also a dz called Pacific and they are right next to each other and rival enemies. So...keeping that in mind...you will hear a lot of smack from each about the other. Skydive hawaii has a caravan that is down at the moment but is should be up by that point, had the engine redone or something and in that it costs $20/jump. Pacific has the Kingair and costs $23/jump. I personally like the people and atmosphere of skydive hawaii better, people help me out more when I have questions and look out for each other. Not to say the people at Pacific aren't nice as well, they're friends too but its just more fun at skydive hawaii. They both have a van that drives into town for customers so you can look them up and give them a call. Skydive hawaii typically runs later each day b/c they have a lot more tandems so if you want a longer day go there. Weekends are a good time to meet up with other upjumpers too. alright...so I wrote you a novel here. No matter where you go, its all the same area and beautiful....just make sure you get a good briefing and pay attention to the winds and warnings if people tell you. They can be crazy sometimes even in typical tradewind days. blue skies! See you in Feb! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slotperfect 7 #4 December 23, 2007 Umm . . . you do realize that this thread is two years old, right? Regardless, it may be of good use to someone heading that way soon. I'll move it to Events & Places to Jump where it's a better fit. Cheers, Arrive Safely John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
