Sandy, are we for sure about the Balloons yet? Bill

[Skydivesg 6]

I just talked to the ballon pilot and he is checking that date. He's pretty sure he can do it.
He also said he just got a new balloon.
He will be able to haul 4-5 jumpers. Yahoo

Be the canopy pilot you want that other guy to be.

[Skydivesg 6]

It sounds like the balloon can be there for Saturday morning and Saturday evening. He has to work Sunday.

Just one day? Any skydivers wanting to make a balloon jump better be thinking about it a head of time. Sandy you still looking for someone to organize the balloon jumps? Bill

Boogies at Skydive Iowa seem to always be a excellent time for everyone. With professional 4-way coaches, RW and Freefly orginizers, specialty jumps and not to mention BEER by the FIRE!! I always make sure that I make it to the Boogies at Skydive Iowa. I would say that they are my home away from home. Keep up the good work boys and keep bringing those turbines!

A couple of us are thinking of putting on a hog roast one night, any feed back would be helpful.

[skydivedog912 0]

That would be cool, if it isnt too much work. How much would you guys charge for that? Is there going to be someone there cooking that, or making other food?

[JnB30 0]

Not sure yet well know more by the weekend, then I'll pass on the info.

The current US National Champions in freestyle "Team FluID", Karl and Merriah Eakins will also be on hand to organize Freeflyers, tube jumps, pylon races and anything else you want. They always come up with some fun and challenging skydives.
They're a lot of fun and bring some great energy and vibes.
Also the new Xaos Grille will be open all weekend providing breakfast, lunch and dinner.
And of course Red Bull providing energy drinks.
It just keep getting better.

Be the canopy pilot you want that other guy to be.

Sounds like this boogie will offer stuff for everyone. Are there going to be any 20 ways or anything special like that. Its great to here Team "Flew Id" is coming, they are both excellent skydivers. Can't wait to hear those turbines!!

[Skydivesg 6]

I just read the menu from the Xaos Grille which is the new restaurant at the DZ and it looks great. Very reasonably priced too.

[popsjumper 2]

This is going to be a good one!

My reality and yours are quite different.
I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

I just talked to the balloon pilot. He will be there Saturday evening and Sunday morning. He can haul four to five jumpers and plans on two to three loads each day. I also tested several items at the Xaos Grille and they were very good. They have an excellent breakfast sandwich like Z-hills use to serve back in the 80s. You'll love it (not like the standard Mickydees) also pancakes, bisquits and gravy all kinds of great stuff and great prices too.
Red Bull will be providing free Red Bull all day. They are also providing their famous attack Humvee which doubles as their DJ setup for rockin tunes by the fire pit.
The Otter will be there ready to fly at 11:00 am Friday and there is a 4 way camp by the NSL director Kurt Gaebel.
This should be a good one.
