People Wanted for World Record Attempt

Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone,

WHATS IT ABOUT??
As one of the missions for Deepseed this year, they have asked me to put the word out to see if we can get enough interest to complete a round the world Speedstar record.

HOWS IT GOING TO HAPPEN??
As we spin around the sun, we would like to have Skydivers throughout the world form a speed star, at designated times.

WHO CAN BE INVOLVED
WE want to have skydivers of all abilities, and ages to join us, people from all nationalities and beliefs, countries and drop zones large and small.

HOW DO WE SIGN UP
All the information about the event is on the new Deepseed Newsletter, including contact information etc.

Thanks

what size speedstar ?



Looks like 10...probably.

Could be better written to make it clear at the beginning. 3/4 of the way down it says, "We do not want the same 10 skydivers who have been on every record attempt ever made at your DZ taking up all the slots", so I'm presuming from that it means 10. You know, probably.

------------------

Anyhow, I feel compelled to say: "No-show/no-contact" speed stars are the shit, man. Linked exits are for wusses.

Hey Guys,
To clear up a few of the questions…

Size of speed star = 5 or more- for small plane Dz's
Size of speed star = 7 or more for big plane Dz's
The jump limit of 500 is solely for the person organizing at the DZ… This was to ensure people with some big way experience would be looking out for the newer guys…
we are encouraging people of all ages and abilities to join in the fun.

I hope this clears that up.

why is there a 20 DZ limit ?

Because the budget at this time will only cover 20 kegs of beer for the participating drop zones!! if we get a bigger uptake we will have a look at making that number bigger.

Cheers
