Skydive East

Recommended Posts

Has anyone out there ever skydived at Skydive East in Pittstown NJ? What did you think? Me and two of my buddies did a few static line jumps with surplus military gear at Skydive East back in the Summer of 1992. We used T-10s, belly mounted 28' round reserves, Bell Helmets, Jump Boots, and Coverals as jumpsuites. We thought that was the way to go and had no idea about AFF or Static Lines with Ram-Air Parachutes.

Despite being behind the times, we learned from Doug Angel and Dick Lee. Both had very low D License numbers. Does anyone remember them or know where they are now? They were all business but they are great guys. I have some awsome pictures of me and my buddies all geared up before our first jump. I show the picture to folks at the DZ now and they get a kick out of it. From there we transferred to United (UPC) and went through the AFF program.
