APF Promotional Video - "How to Skydive"

Recommended Posts

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! B|B|

Wow, I concur. 2 thoughts . . ..

Everyone knows that a British accent makes statements seem more intelligent. Suddenly I'm convinced that Australian accents make everything seem more fun. . . :D

And I thought it was cool that they had a DZ for their bigways that looked just like Eloy. ;)B|

Australian accents make the girls prettier. It's a scientific fact.

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.
