Petra on holiday	Can't Post

I took my Petra on holiday this Christmas to a stunning DZ in Australia. Did a nice bit of freeflying some coaching and well had a damn good time.

Just thought you guys might like to see how nice this canopy is for everyday jumping :-)

It's a DZ called Skydive Surf side. In NSW Australia. One of the prettiest DZ's i've been lucky to jump at.

The costal winds make things a little awkward sometimes.. but who doesn't like a challenge! ? :P

Unpowered caravan site.

Edit: Forgot to add: Oh and yes, it is an awesome place to jump. About september ish time, you can see the schools of whales passing the coast line.
