The111 1 #1 October 3, 2005 See the main post in the events forum. The Skydive Sebastian Keys Boogie is Nov 10-13 and it is absolutely BEAUTIFUL from the air down there. You are really missing out if you pass up this chance to fly your wingsuit over paradise. Come out, let's make some good flocks, take some good pics, and put wingsuits on the cover of Parachutist for once! Scary Perry, Norman Kent and others will be there. It will be a blast. Registration is open at http://www.skydiveseb.com and I think there may be a limit on how many people can attend! Attached is a picture of the pattern I flew last year on some solos in my old GTi (yellow=wingsuit, red=canopy). I was showing this to my whuffo friends to try to describe why I drove all the way to the Keys to skydive when I can do it here. Do not misunderestimate how cool of an opportunity this is! Oh yeh, and I need someone to split an overpriced hotel room with. Edited to add attachment.www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
