Oklahoma Skydive Center or Skydive Tulsa?

Recommended Posts

Just my two cents...

OSC was a student dz. Heard of fun jumpers being "put on hold" unless you are there first thing in the morning. If you jump at OSC, call and see what time they start flying. Used to be at 9 am. I haven't jumped there in 9 months and they have undergone some changes, I've heard for the better. Might try to PM tonyhays for info...he's a regular there.

There are two dz's in Tulsa..Skydive Airtight and Skydive Tulsa. SD Tulsa is actually south of Claremore and I believe they only go to 10K. Price ?

Airtight goes to at least 12.5k for $20 and is fun jumper friendly. Actually located in Skiatook.

Two other dz's in OK depending on your location.

SD Hinton is majority fun jumpers, located 45 miles west of Oklahoma City on I-40, exit 101 . We fly a C-205 and 172 (usually the 205). We are sometimes slow, depending on how many show up. On the 5th a lot of regulars are expected for a b-day party. Big cook out going on. Weather permitting, should be plenty of jumping that day. Rain is forcasted for OK on the 5th as of right now. We usually start flying between 10 and 11 am. $15 up to 5k, $20 up to 10k.

SD Pegasus is in Chickasha, about 30 miles SW of Oklahoma City on the turnpike (toll road). Never jumped there...high tension powerlines right btween the runway and landing area. Private dz. Price and altitude?

In a nutshell, there it is.

Why not both? Either is a short drive from Tulsa, if that's where you're staying. We are student oriented, but still manage to get a few fun loads off here and there. We also love to do night jumps.

I'm sure you'll have fun either way you go. Just be prepared for high winds. Seems like the last couple of weeks has been nothing but high wind weekends.
