Trent 0 #26 February 13, 2003 When we left Monday, a 24-way official record was set. Goat's right, the weather blew ass... but it was great meeting so many people that I always wanted to jump with. Check www.skydivespaceland.com for our calendar. I think we've got some Texas Bigways comin... if it isn't there... it will be soon.Oh, hello again!

cpoxon 0 #28 February 25, 2003 QuoteI just spoke to Dave Brown and he believes that the 24 is official. From http://www.uspa.org/default_copy(1).htm#worldrecord: QuoteNew World Record Category and New World Record (02/14/03) USPA received notice from FAI Judge Stefania Martinengo that a new world record was set February 10 at Skydive Sebastian, Florida, when 24 skydivers formed the largest head-down formation. Linked with arm grips, the formation held for 7.4 seconds, according to Martinengo's report. Documentation has been forwarded to the National Aeronautic Association for transmission to the Federation International Aeronautique in Lausanne, Switzerland for confirmation.

grega 0 #32 April 4, 2003 it's almost a month since the record, but there are still no pictures (only in skydiving magazine) or videos. Where are they? For some this is more important than 300-way "George just lucky i guess!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
