jtval 0 #3 March 11, 2010 Sure can, I pm'd ya. Anyone else? SDLI? My questions include some of the local rules about a visiting jumper requesting to film two tandems he brings to their dz. I plan on bringing about 5 tandems but I want to film two of them. Quick snapshot of my credentials. AFFI/Videot with about 400 tandem videos at skydive mesquite and at the Air Force Academy. visit my youtube account if you wanna see some of my footage. youtube/jtval27.com type in skydive mesquite. most of the tandems that pop up prior to march 2008 are my footage.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ridestrong 1 #4 March 12, 2010 I have jumped at SDLI a few times and love it. The staff there is great, it's a friendly DZ. The view is the best in NY, as you can see the entire end of LI surrounded by water. Not a lot of experienced jumpers there tho. I'd recommend it. One down side is that it is kind of a bitch to get out there, not a problem if you have a car.*I am not afraid of dying...

jtval 0 #5 March 12, 2010 I'm familiar with SDLI. its the only DZ ive jumped in NY. I live in suffolk so its not the wosrt commute I've had getting to a DZ.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cool... keep in mind that they usually give you free jumps for every tandem you bring with you at SDLI, not sure about the others. I actually enjoy the train ride or road trip out there.*I am not afraid of dying...

jtval 0 #7 March 12, 2010 Nice. Now if they'll let me film two of the tandems I think LI may b the easiest way for me to go. BTW- I am about to go jump for 2 weeks over cape canaveral. I CANNOT wait to see that view again.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ridestrong 1 #8 March 12, 2010 Lucky bastard... Must say we are pretty lucky to have this view from the dz.*I am not afraid of dying... I am afraid of missing life.* ----Disclaimer: I don't know shit about skydiving.---- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
