Has anybody heard if they are doing a big event on 4th of July this year at Wildwood? I know Nationals is there but I heard they've got more money than last year for 4th of July.

I think he's asking if there will be the "normal" beach jumping going on as well, or if this year, the beach is only open to copmetition jupmers.

[FFAdventures 0]

They require a D License and water gear to jump on the beach. We will have a fun jumper boogie in conjunction with the competition. It's a beautiful skydive with a huge landing area on the beach.

Where the world comes to skydive!

This is not a PST meet. Still, I seriously doubt anyone without prior competition experience will be allowed to compete. From experience, I can tell you that it's a fantastic venue.
