Most jumps in one day

Recommended Posts

So far I can't seem to get over that 9 jumps hump (I've done 9 in one day close to 10 times now including last Sunday). But I have plans to shatter this sometime this summer (maybe close to 15-16) when the days are long, loads are plenty, both rigs are in action (which they already are) and I have a packer helping me out. There real key is to attempt to do this on a day when the DZ is flying many many many loads.


Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

I usually do 6-9 in a day in the summer. But that includes packing my own rig after every jump. It's the packing that tires me out not the jumping. I'd probably do more if I didn't pack myself, but I'm to frugal to spend the extra jumping money on a packer.

Most was with my old rig back in 1976 all packed by myself....11

New jumping carreer.. 10 in one day is my best.. but that was with hiring a packer.. so I could chill and have fun in between jumps. all Full Alti.. just one rig.

14 - packing for myself at the Byron Boogie a few years ago. I could barely close my hands around my beer at the end of the day...;)

I've also done 12 tandems in a day...in fact, I think we started at 8:30 and ended around 2:30 that day, packing in a few triples at SMB. That's a short, tiring day.

I've done 6 AFP jumps in 1 day twice (last time just yesterday) But I'm now 5 jumps from my license so at my present rate one more good day and I'm there.

I've done so much, with so little, for so long
I'm now expected to do everything with nothing forever

That's cool that you can say you got $2.70 jumps and all but shit.
