Patrick Rynan – Completed AFF
Achraf Dreif Bennany – Completed AFF
Monday 3rd January 2022. Today was still a holiday and there were 52 jumpers still here! More keen Tandems came along. Brothers David & Robert Lentile, Nicholas Seibel and Bahareh Shahrestanaki all made a leap.
New AFF students Billy Reynolds and David Gaul did Stage 1. Joseph Gipp and Ethan Stamper did AFF Stage 2, Hossein (Hamed) Mehrgoo did Stages 3 & 4, Luke Munroe did Stage 5, and Achraf Dreif Bennany did Stages 7 & 8. And congratulations to Patrick Rynan who did Stage 9 – completing his AFF Course. Along with a few coach jumps happening there was also a lot of fun jumping going on.
On Tuesday there was a fair bit of student activity happening. David Gaul and Billy Reynolds did Stage 2, Joseph Gipp and Ethan Stamper did Stage 3, Hossein (Hamed) Mehrgoo did Stage 5 of their AFF Courses. Shane Avis McAnally did a solo. There were 20 fun jumpers and a few coaching jumps got done.
Wednesday – Saturday – Ex- cyclone SETH visited and hung around for a few days. No Skydiving !! The Ramblers Rapids were in full flow and Liam and Dom (crazy pilots) were wake-boarding instead of flying!
Sunday was better weather-wise, but only just! Showers and clouds restricted activities a bit but we still got a few sorties done (but not enough!). Our two Tandems for the day were Kim Dinh and Scott Ward. Struan Roxborourgh, Thomas Rixon & Tredoux Pretorius started their training all did Stage 1. Hossein (Hamed) Mehrgoo did Stages 5 & 6 and Yash Dosanjh did a solo. Achraf Dreif Bennany did Stage 9 – completing his AFF Course, another Congratulations and a great way to end the wet week.
See ya,
Macca and Team Ramblers.

As a SCUBA Instructor, I'm watchful for safety and professionalism in other extreme sports and the staff, buildings, equipment, plane and even other customers at Ramblers all gave me a feeling of safety and comfort in addition to being genuinely welcoming as newcomer to their sport. If you haven't been and have been wanting to skydive - this is a GREAT place to start your newest addiction. : )
