Boogies you just can't miss?

Recommended Posts

It seems that many dzs out there have one extremely fun boogie every year. What are some of the annual boogies that a person really has to go to, just can't miss, etc etc (excluding WFFC...already planned...and Lost Prairie...not a chance I can make that this year.)

Much Smaller, But SEMO skydivers has the "Hot Damn Boogie" every year in the summer. You can jump from the oldest flying Porter in the world, and at the end of the boogie, everyone that wants to does water jumps into Kentucky Lake followed by a great party. Good times if you are in the midwest and want something different from the usual boogie fare.

Sweden will have a couple of really sweet boogies this year. But the one I will go to first is the most extreme. The boogie will be held in mars and it's going to be lots of snow. We will be exiting the plane over Swedens highest mountain Kebnekajse and then land next to a cabin which is on the mountainside. The view from above will be awesome.

We're going to live in little icefishing-cabins on the lake where the plane will take off and land.. and the evenings will be spent in the hot sauna drinking beer :)

Vichy, best boogie in Europe. You have to go once, there's only one jump plane available, but its a an AN72 jet.

Swedish Herc boogie rocks also, but not the same atmosphere as Vichy.

I cannot believe nobody has mentioned the Harvest Moon Boogie! St. George, SC.

I went there on a whim, and decided I should make it a yearly stop! Too much fun is had at that DZ!

(o.k. Something about Sainthood may sway my opinion too, bad hot damn, that's an awsome CASA boogie!)

Blues!

Yes, I am going to try to hit the Harvest Moon Boogie. Wally was a riot! He has to be one of the coolest dzos I've ever met!

And, Kevin, Happy Mardi Gras! I know it's illegal to use beads from last year, so I will be pimping others around the streets and collect from them.

The SEMO one sounds fun, and it's not too far away! Yay!

Another boogie I may try to hit is the Goodtime boogie. We'll see on that one, though.

I'll probably also try to hit one more boogie that's not extremely close (I am actually thinking of flying somewhere for a long weekend....boogie or tunnel...boogie or tunnel...hmmm)

The Vichy boogies are, until told otherwise, not happening anymore Nac...

Espace is still happening, but at the home DZ of the boogie, Lapalisse.

That being said, Espace is an awsome boogie, regardless of the plane (the AN 72 was special though...). For the last 2 years, they flew 2 Skyvans and 2 Otters. IMHO, the best quality skydiving is to be had there, flat or freak. Even living in Canada now, we'll look at going again.
