nacmacfeegle 0 #4 February 27, 2003 Umm I'm guessing that the WFFC (Quincy/Rantoul)would have that. Or do you mean a 'regular' DZ. Again I'm Guessing that somewhere like Eloy would be a hot favourite, no idea on numbers though.....-------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

DYEVOUT 0 #6 February 27, 2003 "Didn't someone do 500 hop and pops in a day once?" --------------------------------------------------- Most Parachute Jumps In 24 Hours American Michael Zang completed 500 parachute jumps in the space of 24 hours at an airfield near Decatur, Texas, USA, from May 18–19, 2001. Completing a 640 m (2,100 ft) jump every 2 minutes 53 seconds on average, he called his attempt Jump4Kids and used it to raise money for the Special Olympics. -------------------------------------------------- I think the guy was asking about a DZ getting the most bodies in the air in a day, though. ----------------=8^)---------------------- "I think that was the wrong tennis court."

PhreeZone 14 #7 February 27, 2003 Got to be either WFFC or maybe the Vichey boogie. Might be one of the FreakBrother boogies with the C-130 too.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tonto 1 #8 February 27, 2003 OK, so what are you looking for? Number of jumps done by a single person at 1 DZ in a day? 500. Number of jumps done in a single day at a single boogie? Probably the convention in the late 1990's.It's the year of the Pig. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

schwede 0 #10 March 3, 2003 Well.. At the last Hercules Boogie (2002) in Sweden we did one day 25 loads with an average of 80 jumpers/load = 2000 jumps. We did in total over 11 000 skydives during that week... Record? naaah but could be close to WFFC, I do think they make more in one day as they have more less 5000 skydivers on site and we only have 600.Schwede "Das Leben ist schön, nicht immer aber immer öfter" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
