J/M course date has changed

Hi JSC members,

There is not too much to report following the weekend's activities. Rain delayed us on Saturday but a good day was had on Sunday. I am always pleased when we have an incident free weekend and thanks to all those who jumped last weekend and contributed to keeping it safe.

The Jumpmaster Course is now scheduled for the last weekend in February as most of the candidates are not yet....

Posted 17 January 2012

When? 21-22 January 2012

It's 4 days to go before the wingsuiters come play!

For those guys wanting to get into birdman it will be the weekend to get your wings.

There will be a R500 registration to help the coaches with the costs of coming from the States.

Coaching for intermediate all the way through to those who want to be part of the SA record from 2 of the top wingsuiters in the world. The boogie will also be a qualifying round for the next World Record attempt.

And that is not all, for a limited period, we could get Carnage TV (www.carnage.tv) to come and do a 3D documentary on the weekend. I’ll be having a meeting with the producers and keep you in the loop...
