jerry81 10 #1 September 28, 2006 A new national FS record was set on September 23rd at Skydive Venezuela, Higuerote. 32 Venezuelan skydivers broke the previous record (28) on the fifth attempt- sunset load on Saturday. Jumps were made from two Antonovs 28 from an altitude of 15.000 feet and there were no problems except a chop on the last warmup jump on Friday and some short delays for the regular skydiving operation that ran alongside the record attempt. I'm not quite sure if the record is officially recognized, but it is definitely the biggest all-Venezuelan RW formation to date... Participants in the new record: Alberto Alibrandi Alberto Winckelman Alejandro Angeli Alejandro Betancourt Ali Hage Anibal Dao Armando Arriechi Carlos Redondo David Muñoz Donaldo Pacheco Fabiana Serfati Gabriel Toth Giancarlo Trimarchi Guglielmo Giuca Israel Medina Jesus Sojo Jonathan Cohen Joshua Rodriguez Juan Jose Denis Julio Planchart Julio Quintero Julio Sarria Luis Adolfo Lopez Mendez Luis Alfredo Lopez Mendez Luis Ramon Garzaro Pablo Gimenez Pedro Luis G Pedro Ramos Raúl Quiñones (main organizer) Richard Yacoub Rosemarie Carrer Wladimir Abbat Cameraflyers: Daniel Viñals Luis Rotundo Attached is a photo of the record formation, taken by Luis Rotundo. A few more pictures can be found in the photo gallery on our webpage- www.skydivevenezuela.com. Thanks again to everyone for participating and congrats on the accomplishment!!
