Hey everyone! Wanted to make a quick post about Tokyo Skydiving club. When I visited Japan earlier this month, I had a two week trip in mind to visit and travel over half the country, starting my trip off with a blast at Tokyo Skydiving Club. However I didn't get the opportunity to Jump, due to the strict guidelines Japan has on people using the airspace (even as canopy pilots!) Long story short, you have to contact the drop zone at least a week in advance to start the process to get permission, also you need to use their local life insurance, no exceptions which is about 80 bucks for the month. If you are interested in what the drop zone is all about, I made a photo essay on the local skydiving culture, which you can read at the following; http://www.chasingjapan.com/tokyo-skydiving-club/ Cheers! -Louis
