Bridge
Locations:
There
are 14 different bridges in Northern California that Icarus
Bungee jumps from.
The
bridge locations are within a five hour drive of San Francisco.
Be
prepared to drive the maximum distance.
(The
closest bridge to San Francisco is 2 1/2 hours drive.)
Locations
vary because of changing conditions.
Roads
are affected by river & lake flooding, severe weather,
mudslides, landslides, snow, forest fires, logging &
mining operations. Because conditions can change rapidly
(especially during winter months), the
location will not be selected until the Wednesday before the
jump.
The
heights vary from a minimum of 100' (33 m) to 270' (82 m)
Due
to wet or dry years some bridges are not available every year.
Directions
to the location will be sent to the group organizer the
Wednesday evening before the scheduled jump. Please
do not ask where the bridge location will be prior to the
scheduled send date, you will not be told. Bridge locations are
a carefully guarded trade secret. Please be discrete about
giving the location to anyone after receipt.
Icarus
Bungee respects private property and does not jump from
privately
owned bridges without permission. Government owned bridges are
the common property of all citizens and are thus fair game.
Discretion & Jumping early in the morning avoids the
problems of disrupting traffic or creating a public nuisance
with spectators.
Jumping
Days: Icarus
Bungee will book individuals and groups for jumping on scheduled
expeditions. There will be at least one scheduled expedition per
Month. Jumps will be executed in the very
early morning
(Sunrise) or on the
rare occasional evening. To reserve a place on an expedition
please email:
details@icarusbungee.com
Next Jump
Dates,
Icarus Bungee is closed UNTIL FURTHER
NOTICE.
I will still be available for
equipment construction & design, consulting and stunt work for
events and video production.
Please
email to sign up.
(Please
read Bridge Locations above.)
Special
Trips: Special
trips are expeditions to bridges that may be out of state and are
unusually high. (300'+)
Special Trips are not recommended for
the novice jumper and are more costly.
Age:
If you are under 18
years old your Parent or Legal Guardian must sign a parental
consent form to jump with Icarus Bungee. All jumpers will
be required to sign a release form before jumping can begin.
Weight:
If a jumper's weight is
in doubt, he/she will be weighed on our scales. Weight is a
safety matter that Icarus Bungee takes very seriously. A
jumper's weight determines the number of cords to be used.
We have a limit of 250 lbs.
Group Size:
(1-15) We prefer to
jump about ten people in a three hour time block.
Group
Organizer: All
groups should have one individual who is designated as the Group
Organizer, It is then the responsibility of the organizer to pass
along information to other members of the group. The group
organizer will also be responsible for collecting money from all
the members of the group and making payments to Icarus Bungee.
Reservations:
All trips require advance
reservations. Full payment is non-refundable when within two
weeks of the jump date. When planning a bungee jumping trip we
recommend that you make payments only after collecting payment
from each member of your group.
Discounts:
The group organizer
bungee jumps free when the group consists of five or more people
in addition to yourself. Individual members or veterans of the
Military, Police, Firemen and Paramedics (active duty, reserve or
retired) may receive an additional ten dollar discount. Military
Members being or been deployed to Afghanistan or Iraq may jump
for free on a space available basis. (Call and find out
schedule.) Must bring copy of orders for free jump.
Cost:
The cost is $139.00
for two jumps
per person, unless a discount applies. Jumps
may not be split between customers.
"Special
Trips" will cost more
due to increased travel
distance and higher equipment costs for taller bridges. The cost
will vary for each special trip.
Payments:
Final payment is due Monday
before actual bungee
jump. We accept payment by PayPal or credit card through PayPal.

cancellations within two weeks of the jump date or no-shows.

jumps off due to severe weather conditions.

consider trade of services or goods. email what you'd
like to trade. We also accept Liberty Dollars and precious metal

Once in a life
time offer:
Are you web designer? As you can see from
my webpage it needs some work. I spend most of my time building
and designing the best Bungee Equipment made anywhere. That and
working in my normal profession of civil engineering and raising
two young children with my wife. I just don't have time to build
a new webpage. I am not interested having a crappy pre-fab
wix or go-daddy type page, If you are not a professional web
designer do not waste my time. I don't want a bunch of stupid
trackers and scripts embedded into my page. Here's the offer.
Lifetime free jumping for one web designer as long as you
provide periodic maintenance on the webpage.
