One could take less than 2 weeks off work and hit one of the great Florida Halloween boogies (like the Hog Flop) Angelic and this boogie. Cool

Sounds like a great boogie. It is too bad that the dates conflict with the wingsuit world record attempt. There will be a lot of wingsuits that won't be able to come.

Miami, Key West or even Marathon may be options.

One year I flew from Miami directly to Marathon.

  For all those that don't know me, I'm a bartender at Margaritaville in Key West. On Friday night (11/6) if you show your closing pin necklace at the bar, you'll get 20% off your whole check. Food & drink. I got this cleared with management the other day. Hope to see lots of you skydivers! Come get your drink on! Wink

Hey now for the record our tunnel sucks, it doesn't blow. LOL

Actually Derek has been load organizing this summer for then tunnel on the boogie circuit, so we can even land those silly canopies, and let's just say I'm glad there is no corn on the island, I'm ready for new obstacles to have to hit accuracy around. LOL

Re: [DBCOOPER] Keys Boogie November 5th-9th [In reply to] Can't Post

While there weren't alot of jumps made due to winds (stupid hurricanes) it was still a great time hanging out with everyone, particularly in Key West.

Thanks to the SDC and Sebastian staff for throwing this one and CazmoDee for putting up with us at Margaritaville. Smile

They should let us back again next year. Noone landed off, got hurt, or was caught committing a felony. Smile
