About Skydive Ballistic Blondes

Skydive Ballistic Blondes was a tandem skydiving operator based at Whangārei Airport on Gloyn Road, Onerahi, in Northland. Its distinguishing feature was beach landings — it was described as the first New Zealand skydive operator to offer them — with landing options on the Whangārei east coast at Ruakākā Beach and Ocean Beach, and further north at Paihia Beach in the Bay of Islands.

The operation ran tandem jumps at a range of altitudes, from a low-altitude "Ground Rush" option through to higher jumps offering a longer scenic flight and freefall over the Northland coastline and farmland. Instructors fitted gear and delivered a safety briefing before boarding, and jumpers remained attached to their instructor throughout. An Accelerated Free Fall programme was also offered for people wanting to progress towards solo skydiving.

Current status

This listing should be treated with caution. The business is recorded as permanently closed on major review platforms, and the domain skydiveballisticblondes.co.nz no longer hosts any skydiving content — it has been repurposed and now carries unrelated online gambling material. No current booking channel, pricing or group capability could be verified.

Planners considering a skydive element for a Northland incentive or teambuilding programme should confirm directly whether the operation is trading before including it in an itinerary, or source an alternative operator.
