ACHIEVEMENTS

Luke Morley – New Wingsuit
Monday 16th – September. It was a quiet start to the week. We had 5 jumpers who did 3 x 182 loads. They had fun. On Tuesday our AFF student Rosie Dodgsen was here and did Stages 5 & 6 of her Course. Again the 182 carried the day for the 2 loads. Numbers increased on Wednesday. Rosie Dodgsen did Stages 7, 8 & 9 completing her AFF Course. Congratulations! There were 19 skydivers here and we did 5 loads.
On Thursday Marcus Bush started his skydiving course and did AFF Stage 1. Welcome aboard! It was a busy 8 load day.
Friday. Funtastic! We did 6 loads for the day, there were 18 jumpers doing them including Marcus who got stuck into it and did Stages 2, 3 & 4 of his AFF Course.
Saturday. There were lots of jumpers (34) here for the day. Lots of Tandems too today, including a group from UQ. ‘Damon’ Shengle Wang, Emma Waterworth, Zara Zareadeh, ‘Hani’ Zi Qi Wang, ‘Éffie’ Wanxin Li. ‘Barry’ Hang Ai, JingJing Xu, ‘Belinda’ Beilin Zaeng and Roxana Nae all had a freefall blast! Marcus nailed Stages 5, 6 & 7 of his AFF Course and Danny Fitzpatrick arrived for the First Jump Course completing Stage 1. It was a fun night at the bar!
Sunday was a cruisey. 33 jumpers filled the 6 loads that were done. More people arrived for Tandem jumps. Skydiving legend from Aratula days Wayne Fowler, brought his young sons Stephen and Lucas for a Tandem. Barbie’s mate Alexis Dennehy also went for her first skydive. Danny Fitzpatrick did Stage 2 of his AFF Course. Marcus Bush did Stages 8 and 9 – completing his AFF, well done!

An absolute Blast. Totally exhilarating. Sarah, my diving buddy was totally professional and competent. She rehearsed my moves. Gave me an opportunity to bail (which was never going to happen but would have been appreciated by a possible nervous type), was a very good tourist guide on the climb out so fabulous experience all round.
Thanks to everyone there.
Cheers, Carol.
