Staso 0 #1 March 22, 2005 I just got back from Morocco where we had the first speed skydiving meet for 2005 Speed Skydiving World Cup season. The meet went perfectly, the dropzone is gorgeous, with green grass and 80 degrees temperatures and mountains with snow 3 miles away. The organization was top notch and the office of tourism of Morocco treated several competitors to free air tickets, hotel and food. Which was very nice :) The results are still pre-official, but we got some interesting pics from Morocco. For those who are curious, go to speedskydiving.com and click on Morocco and Latest News.

Jumptown is located 70 miles west from Boston, MA. Some info about American meet and speed skydiving can be found at http://jumptown.com/events/speedskydiving.shtml.
