I am spending June 17th thru July 3rd at Kjerag. I like hiking more than being a lazy ass that I am from 9-5 everyday.

Hello,

Can someone please:

- post photos of the DZ
- comment on accommodation at and around dz
- comment on possibility that the jump ships will be on the dz
- tell me more about the weather during the boogie time in Stupino

I would hate to make this trip and end up sitting around on the dz because of bad weather or aircraft shortages.

Thanks.

Respect my authoritah!

[Gadget 0]

The only photo i can find at the moment.
There is some general info in the dropzones part of dropzones.com

If people from Poland are called Poles, why aren't people from Holland called Holes???

Hey there,

just thought I'd comment on this a little, since I've jumped there last May. Here's some history of the place as we were told then. The dropzone in it's current form was first put together by a certain Mr. Anton Malevsky, a well-established Russian businessman in the early 90's. The airfield is an old air force base, and the city of Stupino (10 mins away) was and still is a center for Russian aerospace research. Unfortunately Malevsky died in November 2001, but his heritage is strongly present (eg. the annual International Malevsky Cup). The Russian military still uses some of the dropzones aircraft for training there.

The facilities are really nice (equal or better than say Skydive City for example), plenty of skilled and cheap packers ($2 packjobs), and cheap jumps with a LET 410, two MI-8's and a brand new Turbo Finist (a Chech made copy of a Porter). I wouldn't worry about the aircraft availabilty, one morning when one of the engines on the LET gave up, another LET was flown in right away (in 1 hour).

There's a nice restaurant on the DZ with a big terrace, (Russian cuisine is really tasty), there's a pro shop, manifesting works with a DZ credit card thingy, a bunkhouse, jumps were approx. $15 to 4km, and everyone is really friendly. Plus, it's always nice to have atleast a couple of world champions on the same load, as the 4-way, 8-way and skysurf champs train there (15 jumps per day, every day).

I've attached a couple of photos from the dropzone. Maybe not your typical Russian setting, but any how...

I will definately go again, and hopefully to this meeting too!

Happy New Year Flockers,

Kerkko

The weather in late june is 75-95 degrees. Nights are fairly warm that time of year. Probably the best time of year to visit is late MaY to late September.

Why the clash with Kjerag heli boogie.?

Any-one?? can the heli boogie be moved forward a bit??

....so us remote dwellers can do both .
Choosing between these two boogies sucketh.

[unclecharlie95 3]

I have the same problem...

But you can go to Norway before or after Russia, you'll just have to hike all your jumps

Man, I really want to go to this but $1200+ for airfare from USA is a lot. Somebody this weekend told me it was possible to do it for $400. Anybody know the scoop?

Hey, if you look at sooner dates (March, for example), it is only $760 vs $1200+. I would guess they make the prices for "distant future" tickets more expensive as a sort of insurance against potential fuel price increases. So if you are planning on buying those tickets, don't do it yet! I'll bet they're a lot cheaper in April or May.

True! Buy later, not now. But work on getting your visa now, not later.

I think Holland is mostly refered to as 'the nasty country', or (when its about me) 'that weird place'
