Pura Vida Skydiving @ Vega Baja

Here´s some pictures from the skydiving that also took place at the boogie ;-)

It was 4 days of skydiving. 3 planes - Super Otter, 200 jumpers, two landing areas, the beach or at the dropzone. The beach was like a 3 min drive from the dropzone. If you wanted to land there there was a shuttle waiting for you to take you back to the DZ, lovely!

The landing area on the DZ wasn´t the best but that was because of the runway and the landing area was a forest a couple of weeks before the boogie. They had to move the location of the boogie, just some weeks before because of some administration problems. So they worked and worked, cut down trees, dug up the roots and made it to a runway in like 10 days. Amazing!

That´s skydiving spirit!

The manifest was without doubt the best I´ve seen. How the managed to organize everything so smooth and easy, without any, as far as I experienced anyway, trouble at all.

They were always so happy, never stressed, and got everything right. A very good interacción between the manifest and the load organizers. As soon as something changed, like the landing pattern or the landing direction, we knew about it right away. BIG UP FOR THEM!

The mentality is very different from a normal jump day back in Sweden. Here´s no stress, not many people actually care how many jumps they do a day, the just jump when they feel like it, packs in a normal pace, and just hang around mostly, enjoying the sweet feeling of RASTA!

I managed to do 18 jumps myself including one high altitude jump at 21.000 feet, awsome!

Look, enjoy and long for next years Free Fall Festival in Puerto Rico

Be Cool, Be a Skydiver!
