All this has me thinking. I belong to a Canadian club and am a CSPA member. But the bottom line is that I am still an "ugly" American. Would it be possible to be part of this?.....Steve1

Good question... Try emailing the host to ask about eligibility rules: www.skydiveburnaby.com ...
Historically, from my research, I heard other bigways let outsiders in under certain cases (i.e. born in which country, or state, or which country passport you hold, or member of parachuting association, etc). I have no idea about the 80-way. Maybe all you need is to be CSPA. Go for it if they let you!

Heh Mark, I attended the big-way camp in Perris last May and it ROCKS! I know you really want on the CDN way and won't be able to go to the next Perris camp before the CDN way but you may want to look long term budgeting for the following camp even if it will be after the CDN way. It is well worth it.
QuoteCall me stubborn. I'll probably be cut, but what I learned so far, I still have a fighting chance to get experienced enough between now and then...
That's the great thing about a camp, unless you do some kind of really bad safety violation, you won't get cut. A good LO will put you in a slot that you'll be learning. If you mess up really bad in that slot, then a good LO will realize you are in over your head, and move you to a slot that will work for you.
Good luck, it sounds like this will be just what you need to get ready for big ways.
May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. - Edward Abbey
Call me stubborn. I'll probably be cut, but what I learned so far, I still have a fighting chance to get experienced enough between now and then... No email rejections when I contacted Skydive Burnaby, that's a good sign...
