I imagined a ranch like a grassland, but it turned out to be a wilder course with a bit of a mountain path. At the top, I could see the ocean, making it a fun experience. The horses taken care of by the cowgirls were well-trained, and I felt completely at ease riding them. The duration was just right, and I definitely want to come back.
草原のような牧場をイメージしていましたが、ちょっとした山道を登っていく思ったよりワイルドなコースで、頂上では海も見え、楽しい経験となりました。

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.
正直参加希望は出したが怖くなって辞めようかとも考えていましたが、
現地に行ってスタッフと話をしてその不安も全て消え去りました。
結果14000フィートからの自由落下は言葉にならない経験でした。
私の担当したインストラクターとカメラマンもとても気さくで、
一緒のダイビングを出来たことも大変貴重な思い出ともなりました。
(結構チップも多めにわたしてしまいました)
日本で参加すると倍近く費用がかかります。

ダイビングしてみたいと考えている人には
非常にお徳とも思います。

This time, I had my first horseback riding experience with my 7-year-old child. At first, both my child and I were nervous, but we quickly got used to it. The horses were very smart, and we thoroughly enjoyed the great outdoors; it was a truly valuable experience. The tour guide was very friendly, and they even took us to Leonard's, a place I had wanted to visit for a long time, and for lunch, we went to a garlic shrimp restaurant, which made me very satisfied. Next time, I would like my husband to join us as well.
今回7歳の子供と二人で乗馬を初体験しました。最初は子供も私も緊張しましたが、すぐに慣れて来て、お馬さんもとっても賢くて、大自然を満喫出来、とっても貴重な体験をさせて頂きました。ツアーガイドの方もとっても気さくな方で、以前から行きたかったレナーズのお店にも途中に寄っていただいたり、ランチにはガーリックシュリンプのお店に連れて行って頂いたり本当に大満足しました。今度は主人も一緒に参加させて頂きたいと思います。

The shark tour was canceled during departure (due to wave conditions). Given the circumstances with the weather, it can't be helped, but I would have appreciated being informed about the cancellation before departure. Also, I felt a bit uneasy that there were no staff members available who could communicate in Japanese.

It was my first experience with skydiving! There were staff members who spoke Japanese, so I was able to participate with peace of mind! The instructor couldn't speak Japanese, but he was cheerful and had a great vibe, making it a truly enjoyable time. The skydiving itself was more intense than I had imagined, but it was an incredibly impactful activity that is worth experiencing at least once. I'm glad I did it!

One word...INSANE! By far one of the coolest things I have ever gotten the chance to do. Some of the sharks even sueface and you can see their fins cutting through the water like Jaws. They are very non-agressive...they know you are there but they could care less...they just want some crab. I was able to go mid-March during whale watching season and the whales gave us a great show...one actually came out of the water about 100 yards from the boat, it was absolutely breath taking. I would definitely go again and drag everyone I know! Thank you North Shore Shark Encounters for an unforgettable experience!!

We went on a small boat, but there was quite a bit of rocking, so some people felt unwell. → I felt like I was going to throw up...
We go inside a cage, so it's safe, but the waves were pretty rough, which made it quite challenging. Depending on where you are in the cage, you might be able to take good photos or see the sharks up close, so there is some variation. I desperately dove down to take pictures, but since I was using goggles and an instant underwater camera, the subjects were often misaligned, and the shadows didn't come out well, which was disappointing. However, the sharp eyes of the sharks are clearly etched in my memory♪
In March, it’s still cold, so a cover-up is essential. Some people stayed in their swimsuits, but for those not used to the sea, I think a jacket about the thickness of a sweatshirt would be good.
As for my thoughts after the experience, I want to participate again (laughs)♪

It was a quick ride out to the location, easy intrusctions and pure fun and amazement being able to see sharks in the natural habitit. They seemed to be flying effortlessly through the water around the cage and the boat and showed no aggression towards us, only curiousity. Such a great experience and wish I could of done it each day for the rest of my vacation. i highly recommend this for EVERYBODY.

I have a lasting impression from a horseback riding experience along the beach in Oahu, and this time I finally participated since my child is old enough to ride. I had imagined a light gallop, so I felt a bit underwhelmed by the well-behaved horses that walked slowly in a line. However, my children, who were experiencing riding (handling the reins themselves) for the first time, and my 63-year-old mother enjoyed it innocently.
At the beach, we were fortunate to see wild sea turtles and seals up close, and the Japanese guide was very unique, making it a truly enjoyable activity. Since it was my first time staying at the Sheraton, I didn't know where the Aloha Landing was, which caused a delay in our departure, and I regretted not being able to give a tip to the guide, whom I was very grateful to. I think I will request a different activity next time.
Please say hello to Kozo for me!

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。

I had been planning to experience skydiving at least once before I die. This time, after 10 years, I traveled to Hawaii with friends, and I decided that even if no one else wanted to do it, I would definitely go for it.
On the day of the jump, there was quite a distance from Waikiki to the skydiving point. Once we arrived, we watched an instructional video, and shortly after, our names were called to put on the harnesses. For an additional fee, you could request a video and photos, and a dedicated cameraman would follow you from the preparation stage.
Without much time to mentally prepare, it was time to board the Cessna! I got on the plane with my dive partner, and after about 15 minutes, we reached the jump point. We were hurriedly told, "GO! GO!!" and without feeling scared, we dove! The moment we jumped, the sensation of being thrown into the open sky without a floor was a bit nerve-wracking.
However, during the 1 to 2 minutes of free fall, I felt absolutely no fear. It was just an incredible wind hitting me from below. I had braced myself for intense G-forces or a feeling of my stomach dropping, but I didn't feel any of that. It's strange. Even those who dislike roller coasters or free falls would be just fine.
And the most moving part? I truly felt that the Earth is round.
I think many people have felt the Earth's roundness from the horizon, but the view I experienced was incomparable. It was the first time I saw a horizon that was close to 360 degrees.
I was made to promise that I wouldn't sue if anything happened, so I mentally prepared for death, but I’m really glad I did it.
Unfortunately, my video camera malfunctioned, and I couldn't capture any footage. I was asked if I wanted to jump again, but since that feeling of excitement wouldn't be the same, I declined. The photos turned out fine, so I purchased those, and they even gave me a T-shirt as an apology.
I plan to do it again in about 10 years. Hopefully, this time I can capture the video...
死ぬまでに1度は体験したい事として昔からタイミングを図っていました。
今回、10年ぶりにハワイへ友達と旅行することになり、
みんながやらなかったとしても、一人でも絶対やろうと決めていました。
いざ、当日。
ワイキキ周辺からスカイダイビングのポイントまでかなり距離があります。
着いて説明ビデオを見て、ちょっとしたら名前を呼ばれ順番にハーネスを付けていきます。
別料金ですがビデオ&写真を頼むと専属のカメラマンが準備段階から密着してくれます。
心の準備するまもなくセスナへGO!
一緒にダイブするパートナーとセスナに乗り込み約15分。
ポイントに到達すると「GO!GO!!」とせかされ、怖さも感じることなくダイブ!
ダイブする瞬間、床のない空へほおり出される感覚はちょっとビビリます。
でも、落ちている1~2分 まったく怖くありません。
ただものすごい風を下からあてられてるってだけ。これホント。
ものすごいG?とか、胃が浮くような感覚とか、いろいろ覚悟してたけどまったく感じません。不思議。
ジェットコースターや垂直落下が嫌いな人でも絶対平気です。
そして、一番感動したこと。
本当に地球は丸かった。
地平線や水平線で地球が丸いことを感じた人はいると思うけど、その風景とは比べ物にならない絶景。
360度とは言わないけど、それに近い水平線を見たのは初めてでした。
死んでも訴えません。みたいな約束をさせられるので一応、死を覚悟しましたが、本当にやってよかった。
ただ残念なことに私のビデオカメラだけ故障し、動画が一切撮れてませんでした。。。
もう一度飛ぶか聞かれましたが、あの感動はもうないのでやめました。
写真は大丈夫だったのでそれを購入。お詫びにTシャツを付けてくれました。
また10年後ぐらいにもう一度やるつもりです。
今度こそ動画が残せますように。。。

After getting on the shuttle, we arrived in about 40 minutes to an hour. We watched a very fast-paced instructional video and received explanations from the instructor, and before we knew it, we were ready to go!
We boarded the Cessna and ascended to 14,000 feet. Along the way, we could see whales swimming and the beautiful scenery of the entire island, which was absolutely amazing! However, when the door opened and I saw the person in front of me jump out, a wave of fear hit me. It felt less like jumping and more like being thrown out.
When it was my turn to jump, it happened in an instant. The sensation when the parachute opened was scarier than I had imagined, and I couldn't help but scream, but once I calmed down, I was captivated by the beauty of Oahu! However, I did feel a bit nauseous because we were spinning a lot—way more than I expected!
Overall, it was fantastic. I would definitely recommend it to others!
One concern is that even though we took the same shuttle, the order of diving was random, and we had to wait quite a while for the return shuttle. This time, even though everyone was ready, we ended up waiting for about an hour, which was frustrating.
送迎車に乗り、40分~1時間位で到着。

It goes without saying that it was an amazing experience. Skydiving was something I had always wanted to try! The views were incredible. However, the instructor, who didn't speak Japanese, seemed to be enjoying himself a bit too much, making several spins, which was fun but made me feel nauseous. It was tough to hold back the urge to throw up. The G-force when the parachute opened was more intense than I imagined, causing unbearable pain in both my brain and body. By the way, I did take motion sickness medication, but it didn't help at all. If you feel good, I can guarantee that it will be an outstanding experience from start to finish! I went directly without a shuttle service, so once the diving was over and the DVD and photos were ready, I could leave right away. For those participating with a shuttle, even if you jump at 9 AM, you have to wait until noon for the shuttle to return. I think it's best to participate with plenty of time to spare. Since the wait can be long, I recommend joining without the shuttle service for those who are short on time!

I was fortunate enough to end the last day of 2011by jumping out of a plane at 14000 ft high, Its probably the best thrill ride you could ever do.
The staff at Pacific Skydiving are friendly and knowledgeable, they keep to the KISS method, this way when you jump, you don't have to worry about anything other than enjoying the ride down.
I highly recommend anybody to jump with them if you can, the cost to jump with them is half the price at any other location I've looked up locally to me.

It was OK. No transportation goes to this activity to start with, so you have to rent a car to get there. They ask you to be the 1/2 hour early, but there is no good reason why because they tell you to go take a walk and are late anyway. The reason you need to bring a swim suit is to use their pool. It has nothing to do with the ride which is nose to tail and they not only would not late us take a camera but never volunteered to take any for us. The woman who seemed to run the tour had no personality at all. But the scenery was awesome :)

I spent my time in Hawaii focused on golf, but I was interested in this activity, which has a 65-year age limit. So, I signed up with my wife (I'm 63, and my wife is in her 50s). Our children are independent now, and my work doesn't cause too much trouble, so I thought it would be fine even if something unexpected happened.
I don't have a fear of heights, but sitting on a seat like a log made me feel uneasy as we reached a considerable altitude. However, I was bound to the instructor like a koi on a board, sliding down one after another. The one-minute free fall from 14,000 feet (4,267 meters) was incredible, with wind pressure at 200 km/h. I've experienced 200 km/h on a motorcycle, but the wind pressure on my entire body was incomparable.
According to the display, it was a 3,333-meter free fall!? However, since I didn't feel the G-force, it felt more like flying than falling. The cameraman fell alongside me, and I was able to strike poses as if swimming in the air. After the parachute opened, I had a bit of leisure time to look around, wondering where Turtle Bay Golf Course was and if I could see any whales, while also checking my altitude with the altimeter.
However, due to trying to show off, the sharp turns made me feel nauseous, and I just wanted to land quickly! Overall, it was an amazing, crazy experience. Thank you, RUNDY and ROBBY.
The only downside was the long wait time. We were picked up before 7 AM and arrived at the site by 8 AM. About ten people who came in the same vehicle started at different times. My wife and I ended up waiting for about four hours! Some people who arrived later were allowed to go before us. I wish there had been some consideration for the ten people who were in the same vehicle to jump around the same time or at least a way to indicate the order of jumping upon arrival.
