I participated at my boyfriend's request. As someone with a fear of heights, I reluctantly agreed to join.
After participating, I honestly felt that it wasn't as scary as I expected. The diver who jumped with us mentioned that he jumps about ten times a day, which made me think that the chances of dying from this are almost none.
According to my boyfriend, the actual time spent in freefall is about five minutes. The freefall lasts for about one to two minutes before the parachute opens, and then you glide for about three minutes. During the freefall, I was so focused on breathing and looking at the camera (since I had ordered photos and a DVD) that I was a bit frantic. Once the parachute opened, the view was incredibly beautiful, and I was moved by it. It felt like I was watching a scene from a TV show. After landing, I was really tired (laughs), but my boyfriend said it was so much fun that he wanted to jump again.
Considering the prices for photos and DVDs in Japan and other countries, I think it’s worth ordering them since they are quite cheap. We’ve been enjoying watching them together since returning home. Also, it gets quite cold up there, so I recommend wearing long sleeves.
彼氏の希望で参加しました。高所恐怖症の私はしぶしぶオッケー・・・という気分での参加でした。
参加してからの感想としては、正直、思ったよりは怖くないなぁといったところでしょうか。一緒に飛んでくれるダイバーさんは一日に10回程飛ぶと話していたのでこれで死ぬことはまずないだな、と思いました。
彼氏の話によると、実際飛んでいる時間は5分程度。フリーフォールは落ちて1,2分間でパラシュートが開いてからは3分程です。私はフリーフォールの時は息をするのと、(写真・DVDを頼んでいたので)カメラを見るので必死でした。パラシュートが開いてからは景色がすごくきれいで感動しました。テレビでの映像を見ているみたいでした。降りた後はすごく疲れていました(笑)彼氏は楽しすぎてもう一回飛びたいと言っていました。
日本や他の国ですることを思うと写真やDVDを頼んでも安いので頼んでおいても良いかと思います。帰国してからみんなで見て楽しんでいます。あと、上空はかなり寒いので、長袖で行くことをお勧めします。

From beginning to end, which came too soon, was a delightful ride. Our pilot Julie, made it very informative, very interesting and a delight to be with. She made us feel at ease and wanting us to come back again to do another helicopter tour on some of the other islands, especially the big island.
We both had a wonderful experience, thanks in part to Julie and the staff of Blue Hawaiian. We would definitely recommend this to anyone who really wants to see any of the islands. It's something that we will never forget.

My husband and I loved it. Never flew in a helicopter before. Exciting! Safety conscious pilot-Roger was great! Music in headphones enhanced the experience. Views of volcano were wonderful. Roger gave all occupants plenty of photo taking opportunities. This was one of our favorite activities on our trip to Hawaii.

It was amazing! I was also grateful that the pilot happened to be Japanese. While flying in the sky, he provided a thorough guide. I ended up sharing the ride with a Canadian family, and we enjoyed the English guide while sharing our excitement together.
One issue I encountered was when I arrived at the hotel and needed to make a call, but the person on the other end only spoke English. Since I hardly understand English, I ended up asking for help from the Japanese desk at the hotel, which resolved the situation.
The price is high, but it is well worth the experience. I recommend this tour for both couples and families.
最高でした!たまたま操縦士の方が日本人だったことも,ありがたかったです。上空を飛んでいるときには丁寧なガイドをしてくださいました。カナダ人の家族と同乗することになりましたが,英語のガイドも楽しみつつ,みんなで感動を分かち合いました。
困った点としては,現地でホテルに着いたときに連絡をするのですが,その電話先の方が英語しかわからなかったことです。私も英語はほとんどわからないので,結局ホテルにある日本語デスクの方に協力をお願いして事なきを得ました。
値段は高いですが,この感動には十分見合った金額です。カップルでもファミリーでもおすすめのツアーです。

Marco was our pilot and he was fabulous. My 13 year old was a bit nervous with the doors off and he made her feel right at ease.
The view you get and the knowledge passed down by Marco was great! You cannot truly appreciate the volcano and what it can do unless you see it from above. The big picture and unique view from above is priceless.
We saw lava the day we went and that was a bonus, but even if you cannot see the the lava, it is still a wonderful way to view the landscape and truly see the devastation the lava flow can do.
We have done another helicopter tour in the past on Kauai and it is the best way to see the islands. You can go places a car cannot and that is worth it!
Thank you Marco and the rest of the staff at Paradise Helicopter...you were wonderful and we had a great trip!

I participated with my wife.
On the day of the event, the winds over Waikiki were quite strong, making it thrilling, but the view from the window was absolutely breathtaking!!
They also created a DVD for us, so we can relive the views over Waikiki even after returning home♪
I think the ability to efficiently take in the sights of Hawaii in a short amount of time is also a great appeal.
I didn't pilot this time, but I plan to do so when I come back next time.
Additionally, I had to change my scheduled time at the last minute due to personal circumstances, but they kindly accommodated me, which was very helpful.
I truly made wonderful memories.
I highly recommend it!

短い滞在時間の中で効率良くハワイを一望出来る点も魅力だと思います。
今回は操縦はしませんでしたので次回来たときは操縦しようと思います。

I participated in early December 2011. Unfortunately, I had joined a tour to see the lava in 2009, but due to the wind direction of the gas, I couldn't see the ocean entry. I thought about getting a revenge tour, but I was informed that there wasn't much volcanic activity and the ocean entry couldn't be seen, so I decided to join the helicopter tour to see it from above. This time, there was a bit of light rain, and I could only see the moving lava with the naked eye to a limited extent. I was able to see trees being consumed by the lava and flames rising, as well as lava flowing down the cliffs like a thin waterfall. I plan to get revenge during a time of more active activity. However, it was enjoyable to see the town of Kalapana, which had been swallowed by lava in the past, with houses starting to be built again, and the beautifully planted macadamia nut farms. It seems that the seating is determined by weight at check-in, and luckily, I was seated next to the pilot. On the way back to the airport, everyone enjoyed chatting, but I regretted not studying English conversation more. There were participants from various countries.
2011.12月初旬に参加しました。
あいにく2009に溶岩を見に行くツアーに参加しましたが、溶岩のオーシャンエンターがガスの風向きで見れず、リベンジをと思いましたが、火山活動があまりなくオーシャンエンターは見れないとのことで、ヘリで上から見てみたいと参加しました。今回も小雨混じりで動いている溶岩は肉眼で少し確認できた程度でした。生えている木が溶岩に呑まれて炎が上がっている様子や、細い滝のようにがけを流れている溶岩が見れました。 また活発な活動の際にリベンジです。 しかし上空から昔溶岩に飲み込まれた町カラパナにまた家がぽつぽつ建ちだしている様子や、壮大にきれいに植えられているマカダミアナッツ農場を見れたりと楽しかったです。受付時の体重で席は決められるようで、ラッキーなことにパイロットの並び席でした。空港に戻る際にはみんなで会話を楽しむかんじでしたが、もっと英会話べんきょうしとくべきだったといつもの後悔でした。いろんな国の方が参加されていました。

I've always wanted to experience this at least once! Even though I'm over 50 years old... This time, the opportunity came, and I took on the challenge. I'm truly overwhelmed with emotion!
Here's my experience. First, when I arrived at the center, I had to sign multiple "waivers." The content stated, "There will be no compensation for any accidents." In short, it's all on you, no matter what happens. It took some courage to sign this.
Finally, it was my turn to board the Cessna. The experienced instructor helped ease my nerves. The Cessna took off and climbed higher and higher. We were truly above the clouds.
Once we reached the altitude for the drop, the atmosphere in the cabin became tense. I tightened my harness and waited for "that moment." The cabin door opened, and it was finally time to drop!!!
When it was my turn, looking down, I saw the clouds below... Here we go! Falling!!! It's an experience that words can't express. Without a doubt, I was flying through the air.
As the large parachute opened, the speed dropped suddenly, allowing me to take in the view below. The endless blue sea spread out beneath me. It was also breathtaking!
When I safely returned, I felt a great sense of accomplishment. For those who are hesitant, I highly recommend it!
Lastly, I recommend getting the photos and DVD. They are a bit pricey, but they are definitely worth it. When you sign up at the center, each person gets their own dedicated cameraman.
That's my experience!
前から、一度は!経験したいと思っていました。年も50才を過ぎているのですが。。。
そのチャンスが今回来て、初挑戦しました。もう感激の一言です!
私の体験記です。
?まず、センターに着くと、「誓約書」に何枚もサインします。「いかなる事故も一切損害賠償はありません。」と言った内容です。 要は何があっても自己責任です。これにサインするのも根性が必要でした。
?いよいよ順番が回って来てセスナに乗り込みます。でも慣れているインストラクターが緊張を解してくれました。セスナは離陸し、どんどん高度を上げます。本当に雲の上でした。
?落下する高度に達すると機内が一気に緊張感に包まれます。命綱をしっかり締めて ”その時”を待ちます。
機内のスライドが明きいよいよ落下です!!!
?ついに私の番になり、下を見ると雲の上です。。いざ!
落下!!!
もう言葉に表せない経験です。間違いなく生身で空を飛んでいます。
?途中、大きなパラシュートが開くと、一気にスピードが落ちる代わりに、眼下の景色を見る余裕が生まれます。
果てしなく青い海が眼下に広がります。これも感動!です。
無事に生還!?した時には大きな達成感もあります。
迷っている方!是非ともお薦めですよ。
最後に、写真とDVDはお薦めです。少し金額は高いのですがその価値は十分あります。センターで申し込むと一人一人に専用のカメラマンが付いてくれます。
以上が私の体験記です。

I had the opportunity to experience skydiving with my wife during our trip to Hawaii, which is something we wouldn't normally do. After about an hour's bus ride from our hotel in Waikiki, we arrived at the center next to the airport.
We were shown a video with poorly spoken Japanese and had to sign a waiver. The waiver was even harder to understand than the video. I understand it was a direct translation, but it was stressful to read and made me a bit anxious.
There was a weight requirement, and since I had been indulging a lot in the past few days, I went to the reception to get weighed. However, none of the staff spoke Japanese. I was surprised that they couldn't understand me, so I had to explain in broken English and was taken to the scale. The scale displayed pounds, which I had never seen before. I was then charged an additional $20 to accommodate my weight, which made me resolve to lose some weight.
After waiting for an hour, I was finally called, fitted with the gear, and received a brief training before boarding the plane. The foreign instructor looked intimidating but kept repeating "exciting" in Japanese, which helped ease the tension.
Before I knew it, we reached an altitude of 14,000 feet. Everyone jumped out one after another, and before I could gather my courage, I was in the air! The wind was intense, but it felt like I was floating rather than falling. Since the ground wasn't getting closer, I couldn't really tell what was happening.
We fell for quite a while before the parachute opened. It felt like it happened so quickly that I finally had time to look around and take in the view. The gear was a bit uncomfortable, but I felt exhilarated. I appreciated the instructor's enthusiasm as he swung us around until we landed.
It was quite a hot day, but it gets pretty cold during the dive, so I recommend wearing long sleeves. It was even chilly during the fall. Finally, I dropped a $20 tip into the box before heading back to Honolulu.
In the end, I spent a decent amount of money, but I think it was much cheaper than doing it in Japan. If you're going to Hawaii, I definitely recommend giving it a try!
スカイダイビングを体験するというか、しようと思う機会はなかなかないので、ハワイ旅行をきっかけに妻と二人で体験してみました。
ワイキキのホテルよりバスで約1時間で、空港隣のセンターに到着。
お世辞にも上手いとは言えない日本語もどきのビデオを見せられ、誓約書にサイン。誓約書はビデオ以上に解読不能。直訳なので仕方ないとは思いますが、読みながらストレスがたまり、ちょっと不安に。
体重の記載があったが、ここ数日の暴飲暴食が気になっていたので、計測しようと受付に行き、日本語で話しかける。
スタッフは誰一人、日本語話せない。えっ?日本語通じないのか?仕方ないので片言の英語で説明し、体重計に連れて行かれる。体重計はポンド表示らしく、見たことない値に。
さらにふくよかな体重を支えるために20$の追加料金を請求される。このとき減量を決意。
そこから待つこと1時間。やっとこ呼ばれて器具を付けられ2~3の講習を受けたのちに飛行機に搭乗。外人インストラクターは見かけは怖いが「ドキドキ」と唯一知っている日本語を連呼して和ませてくれる。
あっと言う間に高度14,000フィートに到着。
あれよあれよと皆が飛び立っていく。覚悟を決めるまもなく私も空中に!
風はとにかくすごいが、落ちているの?という感じ。とにかく地上が近づいてこないため、自分がどうなっているのか良く分らない。
結構長い時間落下し、パラシュートが開く。
飛び立ってからあっという間だったためか、やっと落ち着いて周りを見れるように。
器具が股に挟まってやや痛いが気分は爽快。地上に降り立つまでスイングしてくれたりとサービス精神旺盛のインストラクターに感謝です。
この日は結構暑い日だったんですが、ダイビング中は結構冷えるため、長袖がお勧め。特に落下中は寒いくらいでした。
最後にチップ箱に$20を投函してホノルルへ。
何だかんだでそこそこお金は払いましたが、日本でやるよりはだいぶ安いと思います。ハワイ行くなら是非挑戦を!

On the second day in Hawaii, I had a reservation, but it was canceled due to bad weather in Hilo (tears). It was disappointing since Waikoloa had nice weather. Due to my schedule, the only available day was the checkout day, so I rescheduled it as that was my last chance. On the final day, while waiting nervously, I was told it was okay to go today.
For those with flexible schedules, I recommend making reservations as early as possible, and if the tour is canceled due to weather, it's good to have a backup date.
Now, the actual flight was amazing. Unfortunately, the volcano was in a state of calm, so I couldn't see the dynamic lava flows or ocean entry, but I could see lava from a hole in the ground! I also saw black streaks that made me think lava was flowing underground, which was both exciting and a bit scary. It was great to see the charm of Hawaii Island's green lava landscape from the sky. However, since it was an English tour, I didn't understand most of the explanations, but even without them, seeing the scenery in front of me was more than enough to enjoy.
I participated with my 4-year-old and 1-year-old, and the kids were satisfied too!
ハワイ島2日目に予約していましたが、
ヒロの天候が悪いとのことで、催行中止に(涙)
ワイコロアが良いお天気な分残念でした。
日程的にチェックアウトの日しか予定があいていなかったので、その日がラストチャンスということで振り替えをしました。
最終日、どきどきしながら待っていると、今日はOKと言ってくれました。
日程に余裕がある人は、できるだけ日程の前の方に予約をしれて、
もし天候で催行されなくても振り替え予備日を設けておくと良いとおもいます。
さて、実際のフライトは、すばらしかったです。
残念ながら火山は小康状態だったので溶岩の流出やオーシャンエントリーというダイナミックな状態はみれませんでしたが
大地にぽっかり開いた穴から溶岩がみえました!
おそらく地中を流れているなと思わせる黒い筋もみえて
嬉しさと怖さ?とでぞくぞくとしました。
その他島の緑溶岩の大地というハワイ島の魅力を空からみれたのもよかったです。
ただ、英語ツアーだったので、説明の大部分がわからなかったのですが
それでも、説明がなくても百聞は一見にしかず、で
やはり目の前に広がる景色で充分楽しめました。
4歳と1歳の子ども連れで参加したのですが
子ども達も満足していましたよ

I went tandem skydiving for the first time this time. After some hesitation, I decided to challenge myself from 14,000 feet!
The divers, photographers, and all the staff were cheerful and funny! After a brief lecture, we set off immediately. Before I could even feel scared (in about 15 minutes), we arrived at the drop zone and dove into the beautiful sky of the North Shore without any time to hesitate!!
I experienced a view and excitement like I had never seen before all at once☆ It really gets your adrenaline pumping!
If you are prone to motion sickness, taking anti-nausea medication is a must. (It shakes a lot during the parachute descent.)

It truly became the best memory!
I thought I should try skydiving at least once in my life, and it really turned out to be an unforgettable experience. As many experienced jumpers say, I never felt that floating sensation like on a roller coaster; until the parachute opened, I was just lying flat in strong winds (but the view was absolutely amazing, unlike anything in my daily life!). Once the parachute opened, even though I was at a considerable altitude, I felt no resistance at all—it was truly a walk in the sky!
This first dive was so wonderful that it made me want to go skydiving again somewhere.
By the way, since I signed up with three friends, we went without a shuttle and drove there with a rental car. Rental cars in Hawaii are very affordable, so if you're comfortable with left-hand driving, it might be better to go on your own to save time.
本当に最高の思い出となりました!
人生一度は、、と思い今回念願のスカイダイビングとなりましたが本当に忘れられない思い出となりました。
経験者はみなさんおっしゃってますが、所謂ジェットコースターのようなふわっと感は一度も感じることなく、パラシュートが開くまではただ強風の上で大の字になっているだけ(でも景色は自分の日常生活から考えられない素晴らしさ!)、パラシュートが開いてからはかなりの高度があるものの何の抵抗も感じることが無く、まさに空中散歩!
絶対にまたスカイダイビングをどこかでやろうと思わせてくれた素敵な1st diveとなりました。
ちなみに友人3名との申込みだった為送迎無しで申込み、レンタカーで行きました。
ハワイはレンタカーが非常に安いので左ハンドル問題無い方はご自身で行かれた方が時間の無駄はないかもしれません。

I was very excited! To be honest, I was a bit scared before doing it, but the instructor was easy to talk to, which helped me relax a little. Since it's a sport that requires personal responsibility, I think it's good to challenge yourself once you've made up your mind! Once you jump, you'll experience wind pressure, scenery, and thrills like you've never felt before. I think running shoes that can be tightened with laces are best. You can't bring a camera, but you can request paid photography. It's an amazing sport overall.
非常に興奮しました!やる前は正直怖かったですが、インストラクターは気軽に話してくれ多少リラックスできます。

The pilot, Paul, was great and very informative!

Honestly, I had hoped to participate but was scared and considered backing out. However, after going to the site and talking with the staff, all my anxieties disappeared. The experience of free-falling from 14,000 feet was beyond words. My instructor and the cameraman were very friendly, and being able to dive together became a truly precious memory. (I ended up giving quite a generous tip.)
Participating in Japan would cost nearly double. Considering that you can also enjoy the beautiful scenery of Oahu, I think it's a great deal for those who are thinking about trying diving.
For first-timers, it's definitely worth asking for photos and video recording.

I did this helicopter ride with my husband and 12 yr old son. It was fantastic! We got lucky and had a sunny day, and the views of the island were amazing. We saw some lava flows, we saw waterfalls, and the pilot shared lots of information. We saw a house that had recently been destroyed by lava flow, and all that was left was a bit of roof. We had never done a helicopter ride, and I was a bit nervous about it. We rode with the doors on. It was very smooth, and the views made me forget to be nervous. I felt very safe actually. Our pilot (Aaron) was completely competent and friendly and knowledgeable. I got to sit in the front, next to the pilot. My husband and son sat behind us and they had a great time. Its expensive, but its worth doing at least once. You'll get a view of the island that you can't see any other way.

In mid-January, my wife and I participated with our friends, a couple.
We went to Hawaii for our friends' wedding trip, and while my wife and I had skydived twice before, our friends had no experience, and the groom was afraid of heights... We forced him to sign up and managed to get him to jump.
This time, we jumped from 14,000 feet, which was higher than our previous two jumps, and the freefall lasted over 60 seconds, making it especially enjoyable. Above all, the weather was perfect, and the views were great, making it an incredible experience. The staff were very accommodating, and our friends, who were experiencing this for the first time, seemed to enjoy it without any worries. Although the groom was sweating nervously...
Additionally, for our previous two jumps, we had requested DVD recordings, but in the last one, the instructor's camera only captured my expressions. Here, however, the camera operator jumped with us, capturing the surrounding scenery and the reactions of the people who jumped with us, creating wonderful memories on film.
1月中旬に妻と友人夫妻の4人で参加しました。
友人夫妻のウェディング旅行の立ち会いでハワイ行きとなって自分と妻は過去に2度スカイダイビングの経験があったんですが、友人夫妻は経験がなく、しかも新郎は高所恐怖症…無理矢理申し込み、飛ばせました。
今回は、14000フィートで過去の2回より高く、フリーフォールの時間も60s以上と楽しさもひときわでした。
何より天気が最高で景色もよく見え、最高の経験になりました。
スタッフさんの対応もよく、初体験の友人夫妻も安心して楽しんでくれたようです。
…新郎は冷や汗かいてましたけど…
あと、過去の2回もDVDの記録をお願いしたんですが、前回は2回ともインストラクターの方が手首につけたカメラで、自分の表情しか映ってなかったんですが、ここでは、カメラの担当の方が一緒に飛んでくれて廻りの景色とか一緒に飛んだ人達の様子とかが入っていて、とてもいい思い出映像になりました。

The only concern was the pilot spoke quite softly and couldn't hear all the time, otherwise super.
