I have one mounted on the right side of a Gath Gedi. Try using the anchor cord that comes with it,, thats what I have,, I drilled a tiny hole on the helmet, then anchored the camera there. If it gets knocked out on exit or ff, the anchor keep it floating around,, so you just grab it and insert it back into the rails. Cheap solution, but works.

Where can I find an external speaker for the L&b Optima? Id like to mount it outside my helmet running a wire with the speaker inside. Dont know if possible. Thanks!

Yes, I guess everybody has something to complain about. Me, everytime I travel, I miss so much my DZ. Of course, there are exceptions, Skydive The Farm for example, I went and didnt want to leave. I still think is my fault, but one think is for sure, it wont happen again, at least not a that DZ. :-)

No Everglades boogie for me now. It was my fault for not getting the money back but I was expecting at least a "you can use a couple but not all three tickets" kind of thing. You know, compensating for the increase on fuel costs since last year etc. I wonder if losing the earnings from the tickets of three people on the entire weekend is better than giving someone the chance of using two. I think I'm spoiled, Management at my DZ really tries to make people happy, visitors and locals. Way to go Amanda!!!!. Anyway, have fun everybody.

I just called Air Adventures asking for information about the boogie. I found out I can not use my three jump tickets from last year :-( . I tried to get my money back at that time but the lines were very long at the manifest, and I was told I could use the tickets later or on the next boogie. :-( I did one balloon (and I took a friend), 4 Helicopter, some Skyvan and Twin Otter, n(ot counting my wife's jumps and one friend that went for a tandem). I should had gotten my money back :-( Anybody else with tickets from Last Year?

Extremely nice people, excellent vibe from everybody, nice view from the air. Small plane (not their fault though), a little complicated to get there. A place to develop the sport of skydiving in Peru I went to Lima on a Business trip, contacted the Dropzone Operator over the phone and by email, very friendly person. He told me even though they jump every weekend, I could only expect a small Cessna, Peruvian Air Force let them use an Antonov that can take 24 people, but only on certain occasions. When in Lima I called the guy and he coordinated somebody to pick me up the next day in the morning. Next day another skydiver went to my hotel, picked me up, helped me with the gear, etc. We went to pick up another visitor skydiver and drove to the dropzone. From Lima is about 30 minutes drive, not far, the highways are not the best, but they are ok. The dropzone is a small place, within an Air Force Base limits, they have a small covered area for packing the student rigs and for Fun Jumpers there is a big place with nice grass and covered by trees, so your canopy wont suffer from the sun. The landing area is huge, I guess is very nice for students, landing in zone is no brainer there, you can infer the landing pattern from 6 miles around. There is a place for grilling, a small store where they sell sodas, food, etc. That day the plane did about 12 loads, not bad for a Cessna. At the end of the day, the other visitor skydiver (from Argentina) put meat on the grill, with chorizo (Argentinian Sausage) and we eat and drank wine. In general aspects, they have a huge potential, you need a lot of people skills to run a dropzone, and they have it. No competition, they are the only dropzone in the country. Support from other dropzones, and specially from other skilled peruvian skydivers could make this a much bigger place to jump. This is the way it works: more skydivers, then bigger planes,,, no the other way around. So, people visiting Peru, take your rigs, call the guys and make some jumps, we need more places to jump around the world. I'll go again in four months.
