billvon 3,116 #1 November 6, 2006 Hey jumpers from the northeast - I'm trying to help out a newer jumper. Anyone know of any mailing lists/discussion boards for jumpers/dropzones in the Northeast US? I'm thinking mainly of NY/NJ/CT/MA/RI. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 20 #2 November 6, 2006 The Ranch has their own fourms on the experienced jumper website. Well worth checking out even for just getting to know some of the locals. Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

howardwhite 6 #4 November 6, 2006 The biggest one for New England is Skydive Banter, hosted at MIT. It's read by jumpers at most NE DZs and has been around for a very long time. http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/skydive-banter to sign up. Other DZs, Jumptown, Pepperell, Skydive New England and, as noted, CPI, have their own lists. HW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CSpenceFLY 1 #5 November 7, 2006 Have them check out SkydiveMentors.com They have an e-mail list they send out things that are going on at many DZs in that area. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BIGUN 1,483 #6 November 7, 2006 Ditto... Have them check out SkydiveMentors.com. they are very active at sending out emails as to what's going on all year.Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mailin 0 #7 November 7, 2006 ditto... the banter is good. most of the DZs mentioned also have their own banters (pepperell and jtown do anyway).Arianna Frances Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
