skyrider 0 #1 December 3, 2009 I must be searched challenged , or the Dz closed, I am looking for the Dropzone in or near Sturgis South Dakota , I have a group of bikers that want to do their first jumping during the ralley....Hopefully I can film, or fly second camera on a few of them! (second camera is better IMO) Anyone know where it is, I seem to be too retarded at searching the net to find it! Thanks in advance for any help!

skyrider 0 #3 December 4, 2009 Quote http://www.dropzone.com/dropzone/North_America/United_States/South_Dakota/index.html thanks but...dayum, they aren';t close to Sturgis, (one is pretty close) btu this place said you can see main street under canopy...(THATS close) I am really wondering if they closed! It's a bitch trying to put my two loves together! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skyrider 0 #4 December 4, 2009 Although...If they Really want to jump, the first oen is close enough! Beginning to wonder if the one near/in Sturgis is not USPA? I'm cool with outlaw, but wouldn't throw my friends out of an outlaww airplane! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #5 December 4, 2009 I think the Sturgis DZ is a temporary thing only during the rally. http://sturgisskydive.com/"There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

Snowwhite 0 #6 December 4, 2009 Try posting the question to the Quad City Skydiving Center website (Geneseo, Illinois) I'm sure that Dennis or Dano can answer your question for you.

upndownshop 0 #7 December 4, 2009 I do not think there is one near Sturgis. Myself and Skydiveatlas.com with Sean Tillery set up a temporary DZ in Sturgis during bike week a few years ago. It was primarily tandems and a few fun jumps back in 2006 I think it was. We brought in a Beach 99, it was the first time any jumping had been allowed. We wanted to go again but its been a real challenge getting things sorted out to make it happen. I think the Burningman event has jumping not sure though??

gitRdone 0 #9 December 4, 2009 Talk to Spencer at Skydive Hot Springs, he and a friend bring a Porter into the rally to do tandems, they are also friendly to the fun jump crowd. They have been talking about doing a demo jump into the Chip... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And announce it as well. Are the heli's still across the street from the Chip? Sturgis is a blast! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
