yvanpec 1 #1 January 4, 2015 hi everyone. My name is Yvan, I am from Geneva, Switzerland. Blessed to be in an awesome country for skydiving, basejumping and wingsuiting. I am quite new to practicing the sport, although I have had an interest in it for quite a while now. I took advantage of the shitty weather here to go to Florida last month to get my AFF and A license done. Did that at Skydive Sebastian. Got super lucky on wind the first few days and was able to knock my AFF out in less than 3 days :) The DZ here opens back on jan 18, I am counting the days ! C yall around here.

Yvan Pec have fun getting your license transferred to a swiss one, since you're a swiss citizen (?) residing in switzerland; maybe things are different dans la welschland, as they often are. other than that, welcome and blue skies and happy landings! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

yvanpec 1 #4 January 5, 2015 haha yeah I have heard it's gonna be a bitch but I have found a DZ close to home that has a USPA rating. and since I am gonna be in florida 3 to 4 times a year, made also sense to pass USPA licenses. Better be on the ground wishing you were up there than being up there wishing you were on the ground. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
virgin-burner 1 #5 January 5, 2015 fair, but kinda moot point; you'll be in switzerland for the rest of the year, and USPA can get kinda bitchy about currency, basically you'll be doing check-dives every time you visit. but hey, we're all victims to our own choices!“Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.
