Belly Bash

We beat the weather (sort of)! Thanks to everyone who ignored the forecast and defiantly made it out to Belly Bash today! We may have only managed one load before the winds went ballistic but the jumps were epic!

Special shout-out to guest organiser Emily for getting us on load 2 and ensuring there was zero chance of us missing our weather window!! As ever, huge thanks to our camera legends Michael, Steve and Jason for capturing the evidence, and to our sponsors, Skydive Ramblers, Toogoolawah Skydivers Club Inc, South Queensland Parachute Council, Australian Parachute Federation and Mee Loft.

Chris Dodds. 

Sorry to say the Learning Curve Camp week is looking a touch frosty!!!
