  3. Hey all! The next Excel weekend is coming up March 25-26— all jumping, all weekend long! We'll be at the DZ in the AM ready to go (9:30AM Sat, 8AM Sun), but show up whenever you can, and we'll work you into the group for as many or as few jumps as you want to do. We also will have an Excel Tunnel Camp on Saturday morning the 25th— there are only 4 slots available for this weekend, so email me asap to reserve your space and get all the details. Excel is run by 4-way team, Elsinore Gravity, and is open to anyone anytime— so whether you’re just off student status looking to improve your skills, or if 4-way is what you want to do— gather your group and take advantage of the coaching on any Excel weekend. For 4-way, either bring your team, or simply let us know when you arrive, and we will try to hook you up with other participants with the same goals/interests. Also very soon, we will be starting up our NEW 4-way 2-on-2 Tunnel Program for those looking to go even bigger, get a ton more airtime, and learn even more about 4-way— email me directly with your interest or any questions you may have!

  12. Hey, check out Coral Sea Skydivers based out of Townsville/Ayr. During the week they jump in Townsville-- into a ballfield in the center of town (you won't be able to do this with only 25 jumps, but get your B-license/50 jumps, and you will). On weekends they're about an hour south of Townsville in a town called Ayr. Wide open, great views, awesome peeps. That is if nothing has changed-- I haven't been there since 1999. If Muttley is still running the show, tell him I say hi.
  13. Hey hon, if you need me for tunnel help, just let me know-- I let Erin know this week that I would be excited to help as needed. If the timing works, I'm THERE! Like I said before, this is a great cause, and I'm happy to be a part of it! __________________________________________________________ http://www.skydiveelsinore.com/teams/EXCEL/basic_camp.html
  14. It's going to be a rockin' Elsinore weekend all-around! Along with the Excel FS skills camp, we also have a Flight-1 Canopy skills course with Jonathan Tagle happening that weekend too. For more info on anything happening that weekend, feel free to email me at [email protected]. And of course we will obviously have Rosa's awesome event that she has put so much work into making happen. Come on out to support a great cause! The skydiving and partying are a bonus! See you there! Mel __________________________________________________________ http://www.skydiveelsinore.com/teams/EXCEL/basic_camp.html
