jguy904 0 #76 December 7, 2006 QuoteQuoteI got 8 beach jumps last year! the beauty of the island makes it worth the trip alone! then there's the chicas..... Ahh, beach jumps, we did some this weekend. Here is some Beach Jumps video from this weekend. On Saturday there was a wedding going on when we landed. If I had know I would had landed closer. You can see them in the background. For some reason, people started to run. Since they don't know me, there is now way they can know how bad my landings are. So I can't see a reason for them getting scared. from the tv show i saw--you're dangerous way before landing! wish i was coming, but it's not on this year-- MUFF #3384, DIRTY SANCHEZ #28(Chief Recruiting Officer), FALLING GATOR #7801-A, POPS #10957, FLYING HELLFISH #847, HISPAS #79, SRA #9229, Surfador Rodrigues Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The111 1 #78 December 14, 2006 QuotePre-register now!! deadline- Jan. 8th. You might want to consider having a secure website if you are taking credit card numbers over the web. Most people wouldn't (shouldn't) want to put their financial information into an unsecure webform. I will be phoning mine in, when I register, if that is possible.www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The111 1 #79 December 14, 2006 QuoteHi Amanda, The person is on vacation and every year we have a group rate and this next year will be no different. Again, when you check in, let them know you are a skydiver and it will be honored. I called two different hotels and both of them said there was no skydiver discount available. Guess everybody is "on vacation". Call me silly for sounding doubtful, but if the hotel promised me there would be discounted jump tickets at the boogie, I wouldn't believe them either. You are advertising something that neither hotel will confirm.www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vivfreeflying 0 #80 December 15, 2006 I called Punta Maracayo, Villa Real and Rosa del Mar and they confirmed they have the group rates. I think your choice of a Villa doesn't have the special offer. blue skies! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Orlando 0 #83 December 19, 2006 QuoteI started to work on some directions on how to get from the San Juan airport to the DZ, DZ to the nearby hotels, and DZ to the beach and the welcome party. You can download it from DZ directions. If you are an old hand at traveling down to the Island, maybe you can suggest others spots that need to be marked on the maps. If you following this directions and still get lost, feel free to pull over and ask someone else . PS. You will need Acrobat Reader to open this file. You can download from www.adobe.com I made one new entry in the map for the Mamposteao Restaurant in Hatillo. That is like half a mile west of Punta Maracayo on road #2. I also made some comments about returning from the beach and that hard to find entrance to the side road for the Rosa del Mar Hotel. Locations in the map: The DZ San Juan International Airport (SJU) Beach Landing site Salitre Restaurant Mamposteao Restaurant El Buen Cafe Hotel and Restaurant Punta Maracayo Resort and Restaurant Punta Maracayo camping area San Isidro camping area Hotel Rosa del Mar and Restaurant Walmart You can find the maps at the usual location: DZ directions. By the way, there is 50 days to the Boogie. Click here to get a more accurate count.

FlyinBob 0 #90 December 24, 2006 QuoteWhere is the Condo Located? Is the location something that other skydivers could be interested? Sorry for the late reply. I haven't been watching these threads for a while as I was distracted handling things after BOTH of my college-age daughters totaled theirs cars within two days of each other in two different Texas cities 6-hours apart. What are the odds ... I found a very nice gated secure 2-bedroom/2-bath place for 5-of us on the beach midway between San Juan and the DZ (about 20 mins down the freeway) for about $50/person/night. Here's the link [http://www.villasdecostamar.com/]. We wanted a nice place as we are going to do the whole week in PR, touristy things first, then boogie toward the weekend. When I rented, the owner still had another similar unit in the same building available. Hope this helps. BF aka FB Old Guys Rock! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Orlando 0 #95 January 8, 2007 Just as a reminder, the passport requirement for US citizens that starts on January 23rd does not apply to Puerto Rico. As described on the state department web site: The passport requirement does NOT apply to U.S. citizens traveling to or returning directly from a U.S. territory. U.S. citizens returning directly from a U.S. territory are not considered to have left the United States and do not need to present a passport. U.S. territories include the following: Guam, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, American Samoa, Swains Island, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. So leave your passport at home and come down to the island!!! For more information visit: US Department of State PS. off course, if you decide to hop from here to one of the non-us parts of the Caribbean, the I suggest you bring it.
