skyjumpsteve 0 #1 September 3, 2008 For all you New England wingsuiters Skydive New England is hosting a boogie at Mt. Washington on Wednesday Sept. 24. A bunch of us from Flock-U will be there (Steve, Rick, Justin, Riccardo, P. Mike, Jeff, and possibly quite a few others). I believe Scotty Burns will be coming up to film. The scenery will be spectacular and we should be able to put together some awesome cross-country flocks. Take the day off from work and come join us! Rain date is Oct. 1.

skyjumpsteve 0 #5 September 4, 2008 Good question. I think the airport is about 20 KM (13 miles) from Mt. Washington. I haven't been to this boogie yet (this is the 3'rd year) but from what I understand from people who have been the scenery is jujst amazing. Lookinmg forward to some nice relaxed end of season flocks with the scenery in the background. There is also a demo into the Mountain View Grand Hotel: http://www.mountainviewgrand.com/ ...beautiful hotel...should be a lot of fun. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

notsane 0 #8 September 30, 2008 How'd it go? Do you guys have any pics? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skyjumpsteve 0 #9 September 30, 2008 Very very fun. The weather was perfecto and the Otter dropped it's first load from Lebanon right at 9:00 A.M. so we were jumping all day. They did about 18 loads and we had 9 wingsuiters there and about 75-80 people overall. We did a demo into the hotel (beautiful!) so we lost about 2 hours but we all got in 4 or 5 jumps. Scotty could not make it but I will see if someone else has pics. The "sunset" load was very nice as we had some puffy mountains in addition to the real mountains. Taya had a chop and Jeff spent the day looking for it so they only got in 1 jump.... actually don't know if he spent the day looking for her main or Stony who landed out Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
