will_wheeler 0 #1 October 3, 2006 I'm planning to fly to Spain in the christmas holiday for the Empuriabrava Christmas Boogie. I've heard that there will be a Beach, two Super Otters, beach landing jumps and live music. I have also heard that a helicopter stunt pilot may visit, offering low flying trips and jumps from 8K!? I couldn't find anything official on the DZ website. Anybody got any infomation on what the line up is and what to expect? Do you have to pay a registration fee? Any other general infomation? This will be my first boogie so i'm really stoked about it...I can now confirm that skydiving IS better than owning a car... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

piisfish 140 #7 October 13, 2006 New Year is usually : party with your friends eat/drink somewhere, and after that the big party was at Orange Kiwi last year, before that Surf-Inn was the place to be, now Regan is DeeJaying/MCeeing at the Kiwi and THAT must NOT be missed. Happy New Year Regan. By the way I spent my last 4 New Years in EB, and always had a blast.scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Regan1990 0 #11 October 21, 2006 In talks with Orange Kiwi right now, They talking about trying to get a big tent (cant spell markee!! ) on the beach for new years eye... Will keep you all posted Regan-------------------------------------- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteveWatson 0 #12 October 21, 2006 I thought it was Marquis, or is that when there's more than one tent? But then, 2 tents would be quite nerve racking People would just keep Zig-Zagging between them. By the way, what's the line up for FS organisers this Xmas???? I hear Milko's probably gonna be there, what about Caroline and Billy? Will you be "excused tandems" as it were, for the Boogie??? I found your Bi-lingual breifings/debriefings at at Easter very helpfull, as I got to learn a few key words for dirt-diving in Spanish. Sorry about the schoolboy giggles.

Regan1990 0 #13 October 22, 2006 I´ll be organising, they let me escape from the tandem/AFF thang for crimbo Will check who else shall be around as well and let you all know-------------------------------------- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
