Watch the video compilation on David Brown‘s Channel on YouTube: “Steves Invitationals 23jan2021”.

“On Saturday 23rd Jan we got together for our monthly invitational get together, where a few like-minded flat flyers meet up for some fun in the sky.

We aim for 4 Skydives throughout the day & this Saturday we completed 4 x 14 way Skydives, averaging 3 or 4 random points with the odd turning block for a bit of fun trying to achieve a reasonably high level of skill whilst having some well deserved fun, we have a good group of experienced guys and girls who get on well and love to jump together and love it when Macca is able to join us too.

All caught on camera thanks to our great cameraman David Brown and of course much appreciation goes out to “Skydive Ramblers” for allowing us the free slot for Dave so that we can continue filming our antics.

Our next weekend is on Saturday 13th February…… see you all there.”

Steve Brett.

VISITOR BOOK COMMENT

 Izzy Patron: “Best experience EVER!!!  Thanks Sara 😀 (I’ll be back).”

 

See ya,

Macca and Team Ramblers.


(to be confirmed…)

Went with them today for my first ever skydiving. It was amazing, exhilarating and exciting. Don't be scared, there's nothing terrifying about it. Once you are out of the plane, it feels like you're flying.
