going to the USA
Hi, guys. I'm going to visit USA in November-December this year, my first trip to this country (so I don't know almost anybody there).

Mostly I'm planning to do some skydive jumps, but it'll be cool to perform bajesumps also. Anybody can show me intreresting exits there? Some local contacts maybe? And after jumps I can treat them with beer ))))

Going to the Skydive Arizona, as far as I can see, Moab (Utah) and California rather near, so I'm free to grab a car and drive there I think.

Close if you consider 12 hours of driving close. Its a bigger country than what you are used to probably. Unless you are from Russia or China or India.

AZ has a crew and there are exits they can bring you to that are local. However, since you know no one and have given no information about yourself, experience, only made one post, etc, you are going to be hard pressed for anyone to respond to you.

FYI, Eloy to:
Southern California: 5-6 hours
Moab: 8-9 hours

Re: [douchekiller] going to the USA
My apologies, the information is that I have about 90 basejumps, about 40 objects. The dude with nickname REDAKTOR here knows me (maybe not by this nickname I have here), other guys from Russia and Ukraine probably too, but since I'm new to this forum - I don't know their nicknames here.

Mostly jumps I've made in Russia, also jumped in Montenegro, Croatia, Ukraine, Italy (freefall and wingsuit jumps), the last big trip was in Norway (good wingsuit flights). Also some guys probably knows me from Tallinm base boogie 2013.

And yes, I'm from Russia (but I thought this info would be seen in my profile), so driving for 12 hours - it's normal, almost same as home, but with better roads I think )))

Is that better?

Re: [Juuda] going to the USA
Much better.Wink If you want to head to Moab (Highly recommended as it is an epic playground) reach out to http://moabbaseadventures.com/ if no one responds to you. If you make it to Southern California, PM me. As far as the AZ crew, they are not as fun and cool as the So Cal crew Tongue, but since you will be at Eloy, they can hook you up.

Re: [douchekiller] going to the USA
Hehe, well, I'm planning to stay in US for a month and a half, so I think I'll have enough time to visit all the places I want (and buy a lot of beer).

My visa is ready, so I think I'll go there next week. So I hope to meet everyone in person at last ))
