New Mexico DZ's

Recommended Posts

Hey everyone..

I am taking a trip out to New Mexico (specifically Santa Fe) with some friends and am hoping to skydive while we're out there. However, I've been looking all over the internet for Dropzones to do it and found only 2 in the entire state. One of them is about 1 and 1/2 hours away, and the other is 3 hours away. The 1 1/2 one is do-able, but their price is pretty high ($200+ for tandem) and they have a 200 pound weight limit for tandem jumps, which I exceed by about 10 pounds.

Is there any other comprehensive list of US dropzones sorted by states? I've searched google, yellow pages, and various skydiving websites but I can't seem to get anymore information. The 2 I have found are Sky Dive New Mexico, and El Paso Skydive (the far away one).

If anyone has any info, or could help me out I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,

Ryan

Those are the only ones in the state.

New Mexico is at 5000 feet, the landings are faster then almost everywhere else and the deployment altitude is the altitude some DZ's are climbing to. Weight limits need to be set to avoid damage to most the gear most times.
