It’s Monday again, the 8th  of October, and after a full week there’s no easy way to say it so I’m just going to say it.  The DZ is ONE BIG SWOOP POND!  Apart for some brief interludes for jumping it has been one very wet week.


On Tuesday Robert Williamson dropped by for a TandemLorenzo Moscatelli did Stages 4 & 5 of  his AFF Course.

From Friday to Sunday 14th it was very wet and un-jumpable. Oh well, the farmers love it.

Only 10 days to go to the Equinox Boogie! The Drop Zone sure is green.

See ya!

EMAIL FEEDBACK
Thank YOU all!

I am sorry I didn’t do anything I was told to do. Really. It was the most terrifying experience of my life and the most exhilarating at the same time. Sorry I didn’t say good bye too, I was way too hungry and dizzy. All the answers are a big YES and I can’t think of anything you could improve at, really. I even had fun with the crazy playful birds and saw a lot of wallabies!

Again, thank you 🙂

Love,
Alex (aka the awkward spanish chick)
