How long is the commute to your home DZ?

[Smitty23 0]

How long does it take you to travel to your home dropzone?

I've relocated and the DZ I intend to jump at next year is about 1 hour 10 mins away, which isn't too bad.

Does anyone have a mega commute they do regularly?

It takes me 1.5-2 hours each way, depending on traffic.

2 hours, plus any traffic delays running through Milwaukee.

From 3 to 4 hours each way depending on traffic.. I live near Paris France. The international airports have sucked up the airspace over the last 20 years.

4 hours each way for me. I do it as a day trip and normally do 6 wingsuit jumps per day. 7 jumps would leave me dangerously tired on the return trip.

This last year was a bit slow but before that, 2 times a month was common, on average.

3 dropzone (including my home dz) within 40 minutes of driving... And maybe like 7 within 1.5 hours :)

1 hour drive...if this DZ closes, the next one closer is a 3 hour plane ride plus 1 hour by car.

Three DZs that run otters and can be reached in 1.5 hours or less. My home DZ is just under an hour, though.

Google maps tells me its 1:28, but if the Autobahn is clear i can make it in just under an hour for the 160km.

If it does not cost anything you are the product.

. Damn if I lived that close I’d either have to either get my ratings. And on staff. Or get a second job. Or both.

i have on occasion been accused of pulling low . My response. Naw I wasn't low I'm just such a big guy I look closer than I really am .

Hour and a half one way.

I have 3 dropzones approximately same distance from home. I just pick the one that costs a bit less in tolls and is not far from interstate.

One requires you to drive through a shitload of backroads. Another one is a toll road all the way to it and then some backroads.

[sedsquare 14]

50 minutes now. Before I moved, it was 6.5 or 7 hours one-way, depending on traffic.

About a minute, it's 100m from door to door :-)

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

Almost 3 hours to the nearest CRW friendly DZ with a turbine for my commute.

Depends if im in the car or on the bike, the car takes me about 40 minutes, the bike i can do it in about 25 minutes

[massis 2]

Home DZ is 15mins. Seconds DZ (same club) is 40 mins.

There's 20+DZ's within a 100 mile radius from my place, spread over 4 countries (the Benelux & Germany)

[mathrick 2]

Currently 1h15 - 1h20. On the way back more like 1h30. Used to be 45 min at one point, but then I moved and the DZ commute increased (but also my work commute went from almost an hour down to about 6 minutes or 8 by bike, so it's still a massive win).

21 minutes. Yes I timed it.

[RMURRAY 1]

25 minutes and 33km/21mi

[jumpsracer 6]

It takes me 3 hours one way!

[SecondRound 0]

1hour 45 minutes 1 way.

[Unstable 8]

1 hour 10 minutes.

I am a dad with kids, job, wife, house, etc - so I can't be at the DZ all weekend every weekend. Usually I jump every Saturday and I go out early early and head home after lunch. That works really well for me.
