TSC Star Crests with Toddy
“The Starcrest ran really well. I was really proud of my Starcrestee’s. Giovanni managed to get all 3 Star Crests. Robert managed to achieve 2 of his, which was great. Chase & Paride both managed to get 1 each, both tried really hard. A big thanks to my Team that helped out, which was Travis, Daniel & Lee who were awesome in building the perfect base each jump. A big thanks to Reece who flew camera on all three jumps. The day was great & i would love to do another Star Crest day again really soon.”
Toddy.

Katie: “Had a blast! 😊 Thanks to Adrian for a great time! “ Prue: “Was AmaZing! Robin rocks & forever grateful for his experience & professionalism with my first Tandem/ Skydiving experience. 😊 “
Hey guys,
Thanks for running the Learning Curve Camp last week! It was run to your usual high standard and was a very beneficial experience, especially given my lack of currency after the main COVID closures. I thoroughly enjoy attending these weeks and really appreciate the time dedicated by the whole team at Ramblers, including the instructors, manifest, cafe team, aviation crew/pilots, and support staff. You are all legends and I look forward to coming out again in the near future.
Cheers, Adam.
