goobersnuftda 0 #1 October 6, 2006 Herc boogies are very few and seem to be getting more scarce. Can anyone add to this list if you know of places in the world that have one. http://www.exoticskyadventures.com/ Galapos Islands this year http://www.herculesboogie.com/ Herc Boogie Sweden (Skipped last year and may skip more as per funding/work for military) http://www.espace-boogie.com/ One time event in France this year http://www.thaiskyfestival.com/ The fabulos boogie in Thailand for 2 weeks. Changing those few numbers from my home DZ of a C-182 to a C-130 is quite the change :) I'm not a lawn dart and I love big RW. There always seems to be awesome loag organizing and the price in those countries cant be beat for a Herc (Thailand, 20 jumps included in package then $26.50 / jump ticket) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ronaldo 0 #3 October 6, 2006 We'll have one in Brazil from 12-15 of October. I'll be there! These boogies are fun (although not as safe as jumping in an ordinary DZ). http://www.fpbpq.cbpq.org.br (sorry, everything is in Portuguese) Safe skies!Engineering Law #5: The most vital dimension on any plan drawing stands the most chance of being omitted Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LouDiamond 1 #4 October 6, 2006 There is also the AN-72 boogie in Cochstedt Germany. It's not a Herc but its just as big plus its a jet so you get to altitude very quick. All the jumps are from 16.5 and the landing area is over 3 miles long with vehicles prepositioned to pick people up. Its an amazing boogie and a fantastic experience."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
