NWFlyer 2 #1 June 5, 2014 https://vimeo.com/96571020 I've watched this relatively new video from the Australian Parachute Federation about 10 times already today. Really terrific promotional video that captures a lot of the magic of the sport. Well done! "There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences." -P.J. O'Rourke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Everyone knows that a British accent makes statements seem more intelligent. Suddenly I'm convinced that Australian accents make everything seem more fun. . . And I thought it was cool that they had a DZ for their bigways that looked just like Eloy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JeffCa 0 #9 June 11, 2014 It's a good video, and the best example of promoting skydiving that I've seen. I've often wondered why, for an activity in which there is so much public ignorance about everything from who we are to what we do to why we do it, there seems to be so little promotion going on. With the tools we have today, such as YouTube and easy video editing, promotion doesn't even have to involve a big budget.

tbrown 26 #10 June 14, 2014 It's an outstanding video, captures the spirit perfectly. USPA should try making such a video, but I don't think they have the imagination for it. Your humble servant.....Professor Gravity ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
