  1. I really wanted to buy a suit and some pants from them after good reviews & months ago I made contact with Nancy and am still waiting for my questions on if I can order a suit on rush order. A number months ago i got a reply that their computer had been down. I replied asking about a rush order as I really want a suit. A total of 7 months from original contact and no answers have been sent to me. I really wanted to be a customer of theirs but they do not seem to want another customer. I guess some people think that it is okay to waste other jumpers time. I have had better service from the FAA!!
  2. I did the first course and they took 50 jumps off me, everyone is complaining about it apart from a handful of people. I am the marketing director at Skydive Auckland and this is what we offer after hearing so many complaints about the one in christchurch. Now all accommodation is free, your instructors through AFF are Wendy Smith and the current overall national champion Lazlo. All instruction is one on one and you jump when you want and not when you are told. If you pull out at any time you get your money you have not used back Loads turn around in 12 mins and all loads after student status are 14 thousand feet. anyway here is a summary of what you get. All camera flying depends on your skill level and not because it is just offered. Wendy Smith will be the person who signs you off for your A license and will not let you put a camera helmet on your head until you have shown enough skill. I.E. you may never put a camera helmet on your head within your first 200 jumps. Package includes: $8500NZD When it comes time to buy your gear we have 40% off mirage through Jamie Lyver and numerous deals with icarus and others. We also get Sony cameras for wholesale price and jumpsuits for cheap. Once you are a licensed jumper you will be jumping with many people as we are the largest sports dropzone in NZ. AFF Ground course 9 stage AFF training course 118 solo jumps 20 camera jumps 23 coaching jumps (RW or Freefly) by the NZ 4- way team or Wendy Smith or NZFreefly All jumps from 14,000 feet once you have a licence Packing course Manifesting procedures Video editing course High Altitude Course Meteorology briefings by Air NZ captain of 747 Gear hire for 50 jumps Free beer card NZ A & B Licence Issue 1 year membership to NZ Parachute Federation Free Accommodation Free airport transfers 4 weeks work experience either for slots or for payment * Own gear required after 50 jumps or gear hire available $10 per jump Now, think what is your better option. We have just had one person come and see us and pull there money out of the Christchurch course to come to us as he sees that we are a sports dz and not a commercial dz .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
  3. On a saturday we have about 30 jumpers here at mercer. The cost of a lift in the super porter is 30 nzd to 14k. the turn around of loads is 12 minutes. we have a wicked tavern down the road and free accommodation. you want to do a 10 way head down or a nauti dive or freefly coaching, come to us. If this is scott who posted the original post, i think i just put you on a load. if you want to do a 18 way out of the porter and 2 185's, come to us. We have some great load organisers and are not a tandem factory. We have a sweet boogi coming up on an island off the coast of the coromandel this weekend and three days of balloon jumping at the balloons over waikato. You will find some cool planes in taupo. queenstown is gorgeous though they charge you 60nzd a load for sportys. if you want to jump in queenstown head to glenorchy and visit wendy smiths dz. Wendy is currently living here in our house at mercer and doing lots of coach jumps and tons of AFF. We are organising a swoop comp with $5000 up for grabs on waihi beach. if you buy a 100 jump package off us you will be paying 22nzd a slot to 14-16k. We are about to resort our dz with the new hanger that starts in a couple of weeks with pool and more accommodation. every couple of sundays we will be heading to our new dz in hamilton where we share the airport with microlites, and you know what that means Any questions on deals and packages and accommodation, give me a call on 0274500737 and i am sure i can make you up a decent package that will cater to what you need.

  4. Hey Guys, send me pms for the jump tickets. 22 dollars a slot to 14k. I have just got back to the farm from spending the weekend jumping at our other dz in paihia. So with this marketing i have been doing, we have some sweet stuff coming up. I got a huge radio station last weekend to help me open our other dz in hamilton and now they have come back wanting me to get a heap of jumpers to spend a week jumping from their ballon during the waikato ballon festival. They did not need to ask twice!! I said their may be a problem with a drop pilot and they said that it is a massive event and they will get someone from another country if need be. Will find out more and let you know. Got a few corporate box tickets for upcoming rugby matches and we got wendy smith here at the moment. Now about the piss up, i have been back 4 weeks and have managed to spend a good 6-800 down at the pub each week. Though all of us in the tourism industry do get free drinks all night long at a bar in town on the last friday of every month. Jump ticket packages are not available for much longer as they are too cheap to keep selling so get in touch via pm or on 0274500737. Here at the farm, i can not getbroadband so do not come into the forums much so please phone. Peace, see you at slipper island or mercer! .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

Free accommodation, all our loads now go to 14,000 feet!!, no more of this 12,000 feet rubbish. we will get a helicopter in and all head over to the small island that we rent out every now and then. All slots are now $22nzd to 14,000 feet out of our super porter. we will organise a boogie around you guys, we just had a Dylan from the oz freefly team over doing coaching and i am sure he will come back. give us an email and i will organise a great deal for you and as i said we would have a hell of a boogie with you guys plus do something big to get the Aussies and all the kiwis over here. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
  6. living on the dropzone with dial up but i cant stand that and BTW, it is sunny in new zealand so no need for internet.

  7. Are your kids old enough to be real Fat yet? Are you obese? I use to eat Mc donalds all the time, i was always a very skinny person too,..........then one day it all just hit me! I am fine now and do not eat it, as it is an aweful food and if you watched the movie, you would realise that the movie is true! Do you tell me that the movie is not true? One other thing i dont get.....McD's has a big problem with everyone thinking you get fat from it, so why on earth do you guys employ the fattest people i have ever seen? Okay so they were probably fat before they were employed but why do you employ them? do you not see the image that gives off when you walk in a store? when i use to walk in and wait in line, those people would put me off eating in your store and i would just walk out the door. It seems you guys have a fat problem with your food and you do not market your company very well if you employ people that are not just fat but hugely Obese. Fat is disgusting, it does not need to be there, though i feel for the people that have a hard time with it. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

  10. i think you are wrong there, I think the Americans are world champions at hunting, just a shame they dont hunt animals like the the rest of the world. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
  11. the hop'n'pop is the scariest part of AFF, you will soon enjoy hop'n'pops. just think positive. Give yourself a theme song. When you are on jump run, get the 'A-Team' going through your head. It does me wonders .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

  16. with posts like that from KBone, pulling everyones reserve handles, how on earth can he be a air traffic controller at LAX? does this not prove to LAX and government officals that he can not be trusted. Please tell me he does not work at LAX, because if he does i am very tempted to write an official complaint to them regarding this child being in control of millions of lives. If he works for in this position and your government lets him get away with this bullshit behavior in his own time, pulling reserve handles and what ever else, the LAX control tower and the US government are seriously fucked up!! I sure am glad i am taking a different route on my flight this week. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

  24. not bad for a monday after a weekend. have i missed something? ohh, i see you are talking about the guy who set the church on fire, well, He should not have walked in their, i know if i was to try and walk in a church that i would burst into flames as well. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
  25. You can't win arguments by trying to assassinate the character of the messenger. You should attack the arguments, instead. Do you think that gun manufacturers should be responsible for the actions of criminals who misuse their product in illegal ways? John, i am not a gun hater. I dont mind people owning guns at all, as long as they are no legally given to people with criminal convictions, mental issues or children. However i am not a fan of people walking the streets being able to carry, but if i lived in America, i would probably feel safer carrying a gun because of the huge population and the way America is. (no offence to the US) i am glad, that i do not live in a country where people carry guns. I am from new zealand, and on the 6'oclock news, we have chickens with broken wings being released back into the wild after being healed. I feel safe in the Uk knowing that people do not carry guns, even though i got jumped in the worst part of London at a cash machine, what i was doing there? it was my second day. So i am all for The Americans to carry guns, i just like to think you dont give every person that right. Guns, will never be made illegal in the US. the reason for that is because everyone already has them and there would be no way in hell to control that law to a point where people do not carry. You need to figure out your drug problem first and the illegal imigrants. There would be no president in the US who could outlaw guns. And i also think that your country will be at a full scale war before anyone has a chance to outlaw them, this would mean that everyone would HAVE to carry a weapon, an assault rifle of some sort. I do not hate americans but from my travelling do realise more people in this world hate the US than like it. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
