bigway 4 #1 April 29, 2008 I have looked on the first couple of pages and can not find any mention so here goes.... UKSkydiver.co.uk is hosting their second boogie. The plane line up is coming along nicely and nobody parties like UK skydivers. (dont know if that is a good thing or a bad thing). QuoteUKSkydiver.co.uk is very, very pleased to announce that the 2nd UKS boogie will take place on the 25-27th of July 2008 at the Skydive Weston! The boogie will work on last years massive success, hoping to become one of the biggest boogies of the year. Skydive Weston will be open the whole week before for those that want to drop in earlier. The organisers are bringing in a skyvan to compliment their Dornier for the event, so skydivers will be able to choose the tailgate for fun variation. We will also expecting to bring in load organisers and coaches to look after all levels of skydivers for the weekend. Weston has offered £1 off jump ticket prices, as well as to provide a free barbeque and boogie T-shirts for the event. As well as this expect all kinds of fun stuff happening over the weekend including jump ticket giveaways, games and other fun stuff. All are welcome to the DZ - including parachute students, who will have access to the large amount of student gear and the Dornier, as well as the huge student friendly landing area, and of course family, who can also register for the event to participate in the weekends games, fun, food and drink. The event has as a major western theme, with a huge themed party, with styled fun and games on the Saturday night (but we're not giving all the details away yet!). Further information, including how to register for the event will be revealed over the next few weeks. UKS thanks Skydive Weston for their generous offer to host the event, and look forward to another fantastic event. I feel mentioning the contributors to the boogie and their links on this site may be against the rules so I will refrain from that. To date they have already sold around 100 registrations, Expectations should be about 300 (huge for the UK) but there is alot of people working behind the scenes to attract many more people than that. The Uk has some fantastic boogies but with the huge membership numbers of UKS.co.uk this may become the annual boogie to remember. So far, UKSkydiver has secured giveaways galore that include.. 50% off Matter suits, Matter Tshirts, Groudrush clothing, Wings clothing, Optimas, Custom made canopy, Gatorz Eyewear and clothing, Lots of consumables, Perris Jet jump ticket, LandB clothing, Bird-man merchandise and we still have 3 months left to work on giveaways. The Helicopter has been confirmed. For more information, there is a whole thread on the boogie at http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=98 Maybe for those of you from the USA who have not been to Europe should plan on coming this Summer. Around the same time is the German AN-72? Boogie and the mass boogie in France. I am sure there will be many UK skydivers with a spare couch for our international 5th cousins There will be awesome level of flying at this Boogie and there will also be a massive turnout from the skydiving uni clubs across the UK. Not only will the days be a time to remeber but the nights, well I am not sure many USA jumpers would have seen nights as good as these at a dropzone before. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .
