Shaun and Jake, who had just started on the weekend, did Stages 5, 6 and 7 of their AFF Course, while Ash did the next level of his B-Rels. On top of that the army boys were still here and helped to keep the plane running!

Thursday and Friday the weather was unfortunately not good enough to get up and jump, it was too rainy one day and too windy the next.


Saturday morning the weather was still not looking too friendly but luckily it got better and better through the day.

Luke Cotton, Phillip Crampton, Christopher Jesse and Rosie Martin came to the DZ to start their AFF Course.

Our Tandem jumpers for the day were Hugo Cunneen, Miya Kelly, Morgan McIlrick, Marc McGill, Guy Saunders and Karien Saunders.

9 caravan loads and finished the weekend with a sunset load. There is no better way!

They helped me overcome all my fears! It was INCREDIBLE!

So last week I did a tandem jump!!!!! Was such a mad time! 🤯🤪🤩😮🤗 I've never wanted to skydive before but was asked to do it for work, so I really quite nervous. But the team at Ramblers Toogoolawah were so professional and cool that they made it such an undeniably EPIC and INCREDIBLE experience! Would even do it again! Highly recommend jumping there.
