Gap is worth a visit too ... bit further away tho'

But Emp' is amazing.



Only problem with Empuria is the freak weather - there's been a lot of it in the past few years. The seafront web cam from a couple of days ago showed a lot of snow!


Only problem with Emp is the Freaking COST, BPA is different but as an Aussie jumper they wanted 40 Euro for Insurance, 40 Euro for one jump and 40 Euro per jump rig hire.
120euro for one jump...I dont think so:|


Y'whinge more than any POM:P

Something new per this year for foreigners wanting to skydive in France:

http://www.ffp.asso.fr/..._tarifs_vers_def.pdf (type de license: Etranger)



Just done my first trip to France this year and had to get the 25 euro license, which was no drama at all. Having downsized my canopy since jumping in France last (and put on weight), I had to get the CCI to clear me for before I jumped. I was open and honest and had an up to date logbook (plus video/photos) to prove jumps on that canopy this season. The French chart for weight versus jump numbers to give canopy size stops at 600 jumps (I think or 500, maybe). For me, 80kg without kit and between 300-400 jumps the chart gave 189 sq.ft as against my own 149sq.ft.
