Lodi, California

Has Lodi still got the great prices? Thinking of coming over for a few weeks intensive jumping as the euro-pound rate isn't as good as it used to be and I really, really need to get my experience up. Want to do 150 jumps.

I know they are non-USPA (or were). As a foreign jumper with a private third party insurance policy and an FAI A licence issued by BPA is that all the paperwork I'll need?

That's way more.

I'm pretty sure you only need a money, rig, and a heartbeat.

They won't check your pulse though, and the rig might be optional.


Don't forget the money.

Cool least you know where you stand. Sounds quite grown up to me.

150 jumps is a few, you might consider calling ahead to see about getting a room in the bunkhouse. Otherwise, there is room for a tent in the carpeted side hanger

I'm hoping to have a month between jobs if I can save hard enough now to cover my bills when I'm not working.

It'll be a tent job!

Lodi is still $13 jumps if you buy a block of 50 tickets. Otherwise they are a $15. It's not a GM of USPA, so no USPA membership is required. No AAD required, but it's wise to have one.i If it's your first time there I'd suggest bring your log book, as I have seen several people turned way for not having one if you are new to the DZ. If you have any other questions, feel free to PM me.

For an international flight SFO (San Francisco International) and I bet if you look for a ride early someone might even be able to save you some cash there as well.

Thanks, as soon as I get a start date for work I'll be able to make some plans.

If you fly non-stop, SFO (San Francisco) will be your choice. If you change planes somewhere else in the U.S., then OAK (Oakland), SJC (San Jose), and SMF (Sacramento) are other choices which might or might not have a better price or schedule.
