Ben Gordon – Completed AFF
Monday 15th February. The weather was starting to look not too good. It didn’t stop Josh Large from coming along for a Refresher.
The weather did turn bad. It was rained out Tuesday and Wednesday. There were lots of packing lessons happening. Our students should be able to pack parachutes by the end of the week!
Thursday wasn’t much better but Ben Gordon stuck in there and did get AFF Stage 5 done right on sunset. On ya Ben, your patience paid off.
By Friday there were good breaks in the weather. Ben did Stages 6, 7 & 8 of his AFF Course. Other fun jumpers also got some jumps in.
On Saturday 20th Kayla Richards and Katie Wessling took a gamble on the weather, came along and won! They got on the first and only load and got their Tandem jump.
Our newest student Jackson Wales started his AFF Course and did Stage 1. Ben Gordon did Stage 9 and finished his AFF Course. Congratulations!
And that was IT for the week, Sunday was also rained out. Oh well, the DZ is looking greener!
See ya,
Macca and Team Ramblers.

This is the place for your AFF Skydive Course! It was one of the most memorable experiences of my life and in no small part due to the great people at the Toogoolawah dropzone. I highly recommend this place for those considering learning how to throw themselves out of a perfectly good airplane. You won't regret your decision.
