Regarding Russian DZs. Stupino is 100Km to the South from Moscow. Good highway, takes me 1 hour to get there from home. Kolomna is 120Km to the South-East, traffic sometimes jammy. You can post your appeal for transportation here http://www.dropzone.ru/guestbook.shtml, write in English - no problem, somebody will pick you up and get to DZ. People are friendly and it's normal practice. So, you can stay in Moscow 5star hotel, go to jump in the morning, jump the day, come back and go to the theatre in the night. You are ALL wellcome!!!

Unfortunately the prices in Some Russian dropzones went up this this weekend (Sep 18 2004). Before it was 300 rubles ($10) for a single jump ticket in Stupino, Kolomna, Borki. In Stupino a bunch of 11 tickets was 2700 rubles , which I used to buy. This gives $8.40 - not bad for 4000 meters. Now single ticket in Stupino went up to 360 rub ($12.3). Are there any quantity discounts I don't know yet, because I got a bunch of 12 tickets with 50% discount as a participant in big formations training. As I heard Kolomna also went up to 360 rubles, but Borki declared that they will stay with 300 till the end of the year.
