I saw this on mexico b.a.s.e. association last year but not able to reach there internet site. I think it's Puerto Valarta but maybe it's another ressort. What I'm looking for is having a good time with my girlfriend on a ressort and be abble to do some base activities nearby.
Could you elaborate on where you where or please PM me.
Thanks

Re: [MikeTB] Puerto Vallarta info
I've been up and down the coast and have not seen any jumpable spans. I toured inland about 15 miles in an ultralight and didnt see anything. There used to be a Bungee Tower over the ocean up on a high bluff. It might be 250'??? Dont know if it is still there.
There is a new Parasailing contraption that holds 2 people and has a large basket that would be easy to get out of. I asked how high they go on average, 300' with 2 passengers.
The Diving is great, but not the best. B sure to check out the smaller tours going to Los Arcos.
Have a blast, and drink 1 4 me!

Bit off topic but there is a 600' 2 person parasail in Voss, Norway that is designed to be jumped off. (its Europe's highest bungee jump). There are certainly locals there who might have jumped it...but around that area are better things to jump without getting wet...Smile

Re: [MikeTB] Puerto Vallarta info
Hey

I live in México city but I have been in Puerto Vallarta many times, I have traveled by road from México and Guadalajara to Puerto Vallarta many times and I haven´t seen a jumpable bridge on these main roads.

The closest jumpable S is around 3 hours away from Vallarta it's closer to Guadalajara and it has around 400' I live too far away from it but eventually I will jump it.

If you want furhter info. on this bridge let me know.

Re: [Gabo] Puerto Vallarta info
Looks like it's been awhile since this topic's been brought up, so I'm going to again :) I'm headed to Puerto Vallarta this Jan and was hoping there might be a new B or a recently discovered site nearby that someone would like to share? Thx!

Re: [mcyr] Puerto Vallarta info
When I was there last year I ended up not bringing a rig. There was one building going up that got jumped, but it is most likely done now. There was a jumpable bridge but with a mostly nonexistent lz about 45 minutes inland. Didnt see it myself but another very experienced jumper went to look at it and lost interest because of the fucked lz. Good luck!

Re: [MikeTB] Puerto Vallarta info
Try Mazaltan. I got a few SL off a 180 footer on the new highway to Durango. Nce LZ. One B in PV a few years ago but Im sure its closed now. Randon really low stechy A's here and there. Nice E in San Carlos but shut down due to a zip line right in the LZ! Some more random sketchy E's throughout the reagion but would take a lot of recon.
Heres a pic of the bridge. Just up past Copola on the New highyway. Puente La Jablina.
