The contest
We will be organizing a wingsuit artistics event. Quite similar to freeflying competition, we will have teams with 2 performers, and one outside camera flyer.

Certain moves and docks have to be flown during the dive, and points will be awarded accordingly.

The contest will be 5 rounds.

As the grand finally of the contest, every team is encouraged to show what they can do in a free round.
This free round will NOT be judged, and is also not manditory.
It is only here as a showcase, for everyone to pick up new ideas for the next year.

Location

The contest will be held at the wonderful Belgian Skydive Center Spa.

The dropzone has nice bunkrooms, and some of the cleanest facilities we've ever seen.
Packers and indoor packing facilities are present. there is a bar where food and drinks are served throughout the day, and a digital manifest.

Should it be needed, we'll be getting our own plane for the contest and flocking jumps.
The plane we'll be flying from is a C208 Caravan.

Dates
16 April 2008
Training day for those interested. Getting used to the aircraft, dropzone. And for some people maybe even the first jumps together as newly formed teams. If you want to skip this training day, arriving later in the evening or the early next morning is not a problem of course.

17-18 April 2008
The contest. One practice/training jump at the start of the day, and then we'll start jumping each round per team. And slowly work out way through the contest.
Scores will be checked and posted after each round.

19-20 April 2008
The weekend is there as a backup, in case of bad weather. But we have no doubt the contest will be finished by this time.

When the contest is over, we're going to work on getting our flock on.
For those interested, slotted formation dives. Flying your slot! Working through the days to slowly form the group that will fly the biggest complete formation. Load organizing present of course.

And for those interested in smaller jumps, continue refining skills and coming up with new 2-way/4-way routines. This flying 'after party' will have the focus on learning, and together, coming up with new ideas for the future.

Important: This wingsuit event is organized for teams entering the contest. Of course, people just wanting to fly are also welcome, but do note that in manifesting, the first few days the teams contestjumps get priority.
