North Shore Hawaii Skydiving (Video)

 

On the same day of The Kite Surfers - Mokuleia Beach on the North Shore of Oahu we stopped by Dillingham Airfield on the North Shore of Oahu (Honolulu County) to see if there were any skydivers or sailplanes taking off or landing.

Dillingham Airfield was fully utilized during World War II. Over the years it was an Army Air Field and an Air Force Air Field and finally closed but used for civil use in the 1970's. 

In a joint agreement with the military and the State of Hawaii it continued civil use and in the late 1990's until present there are the skydiving and sailplane rides. The gliders and many private aircraft are based here as well.

 

Well, here's a video I put together with skydivers we caught in action. What a treat!

Sally!~ 

Just one question comes to mind...have Youtried this sky-diving /or sky-sailing??? ??? Let me know. I wonder how it feels from "up there" as opposed to safely watching from the ground...

janeAnne: I watched from below lol!  I can't even go on a ferris wheel anymore...nausea yuk. My daughter went and she told me after...but she said it was an experience.

The video is really a nice format. I had signed up with the site some time ago but they never acknowledged and I could never get back in? Did you shoot the video with the flip? I notice the still picture had bright blue in the sky and the video looks like cloudy sky. The same thing happened when I experimented with it. It was so sunny and bright I could see without sun glasses, the video though looked dull and cloudy and just the opposite was true.

Yeah...but some stuff I really need to use my Sony. The flip isn't good for zooming :)

Sally, you are getting GOOD !! Great video and how did you like wellcomeMat?

Missy: Hey...it's better than youtube...professional wise. I like the format too. Youtube made us look like we had wide stretched faces...I guess it's in wide screen stuff. lol!  Anyway, I think the flip is better for close interviews...not to zoom in on stuff way up or out ....

Sally- Outstanding and all with great and free feeling! Love that free spirit feeling, they all look like they are having fun.

Sally ....... NO, NO, NO, you would never get me jumping out of a plane.  Heck I don't wear shoes that have more than a 2" heel on them ............ LOL

George:  LOL! Me either!  I'm at the point in my life I like being close to ground hahaha!

Yes, this I can do (as opposed to sky diving).   Sally, you keep piling up the reasons for me to re-visit Hawaii!  I'll make you a deal:  you come visit me in Myrtle Beach and I'll come visit you in Hawaii.  What do you say?

05/01/2008 12:47 PM by Mirela Monte, Your Myrtle Beach Connection

Mirela: You'll be back here before I get up and go anywhere :)

Sally, looks like fun, but my wife told me that if I wanted to go skydiving I needed to do that before we got married.  Yet, in the past year, I've gone whitewater rafting on Class 5 rapids, and gone up in a WW-I open cockpit biplane and done loops and somersaults in the air!  Next adventure?  Who knows!
