It's the dog days of August right now, and it's tough to think about how cold the weather will be in February (this will be you! ). But when that time rolls around, you're going to want to be someplace warm and fun with lots of great wingsuit flights, beautiful beaches, cool rum drinks and ice cold beer!

The 8th Puerto Rico Freefall Festival will be Feb 10-14, 2010 in beautiful Arecibo, Puerto Rico. If you've been there before, you know what a great time it is. If you haven't been there before, you've definitely been missing out!

Scott Bland (me) and Justin Shorb will be organizing again, so make sure you've been working on your skillset. Get out there and dive last, front float, exit backwards, back fly, do some high speed forward flights and work on your stack flying. We'll be looking to get some great dives and some great pics and video over paradise.

So pencil the dates on your calendar and go to www.xtremedivers.com to register. Viviana has also created a group on Facebook.

See you there!

Scott

Is it any fun? Does anybody have any pictures of what it looks like from the air down there?



I hear tell that there is this Matt Hoover guy who has some pictures somewhere out there on that internet thing... could just be a rumor though, I hear those happen a lot on the internet too. :P

Umm....are there plans for additional lift capacity? Can't imagine going again next year if the waits are 3 hours + with the last loads of the day needing to be manifested by 1:00 P.M. Please post any info you find out about the fleet they are planning to have.



Hi- we will def. have 3 aircrafts this next year. As soon as the same is confirmed, we will post it. Count on it, be there!* :P

Yea, I also heard that his asshole fiance is making him leave his wingsuits at home so he can take freefly/freestyle pictures over the beach for the whole boogie! :):o
Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :)

In a discussion Scott and I had this morning we are trying to "Think outside the Flocks" (thanks Responsible phil).

Dont miss this event. If you are looking to further your skills beyond traditional flocking, this is your chance. We will push you to advance your flying.

Jeff and I will be handing out the latest and greatest Tonysuit designs for your demo pleasure.

Lets keep this list going
