Benne boogie roll call!!

Recommended Posts

So who all gonna be around switzerland for the Benne boogie at "les diablerets"!
I know for sure that there are at least 148 peeps that registered cause one of my jumping buddy got
the registration no 148 out of 150!:)
For some reason I have the feeling that the next few days after the boogie, the swiss valley will be a total zoo! :D

I WANT NAMES!!! DARN IT!:P

All of those registered have received a list of the participants, and the gondola "manifest". Not all of the registration numbers are consecutive and it appears that just over 100 are actually registered. It looks like a good bunch registered and I'm looking forward to seeing some old friends. The Brits will be around a couple of days before and after the boogie but there is another BASE boogie for some of us to get through first!

yeah you are right, I posted before getting that email... so it looks like there are only indeed about a 100 jumpers registered AND confirmed.
Should still be a heck of a load of fun with just a 100 peeps.
what phases me is that out of 100 or so base jumpers that will be at the boogie only 2 so far are dz.com members.

This leads me to believe that maybe this site is a bit biased towards the american/english speaking jumpers and not really representative of the "whole" base juming community.

There were more people who wanted to go there... Maybe you don't know their real names ?? Maybe they are not posting because they are jumping ?? :P

Well the purpose of the post was to see who from DZ.com will be there
Everyone who is registered got an email with the list of people who are going to be there with their real names
I am just trying to figure out which one of these peeps are DZ.com peeps.
Would be cool to meet them and then be able to put a face on some of the screen names around here.
Am I the only one with a nine to five job??[:/]

At a very quick glance I saw at least 15 people on the list who post regularly enough on dropzone.com for me to recognise them. I recognised more people who do or have posted on the "proper" BASE forums such as BLiNC or the FBA.

I don't think so, it's just most people don't feel the need to shout about it publically. Or maybe they are even embarrased to post here! :-P Me, I just can't help myself. :-) See you in a few weeks...

Maybe, just maybe, it is the americans who feel the need to shout about publically more then the rest of the base world. Thinking of it, they feel the need in the real world as well. :P

Which is to say the rest of the Americans DO talk 2 much and 2 loud??? Or does it mean you are so self centered you only defend yourself?

BTW, all base jumpers are self centered, including myself....
