Good Vibes Boogie 09! 15th-23rd August

The 2009 Good Vibes Boogie at Skydive Abel Tasman in Motueka proved to be the biggest GV so far with people travelling from as far as Australia for this excellent week of jumping. As always this event ran smoothly with the team at SD Abel Tasman doing an amazing job.

The weather was typical Motueka weather with blue skies and no wind for most of the boogie. Close to 2000 jumps were performed over the entire 9 days with nearly 500 jumps on the last day! We were lucky enough to have a range of different aircrafts to jump from with the PAC and the Fletcher flying almost constantly during the event. A highlight was the Friday morning heli jumps (as well as the PAC stalling)! The leather seats in the chopper were a luxury that was well deserved and certainly enjoyed!

It is great to see so many sport jumpers in one place and loving the opportunity to jump together. There were numerous 16-ways, 20 ways, free flying and swooping. The last load on Saturday saw Ida do her 300^th jump and her first 16 way, lots of people earned there B license at the boogie and we saw a few lingerie jumps – thanks ladies!

Deepseed ran a great night on Thursday with two DJ’s, Miijaka and Minnie travelling up from Christchurch for a party at the local bar, Hot Mamas. Even with sore heads the DJ’s loved their 1^st tandem skydive early Friday morning!

The awards night was a hit at The Gothic with lots of laughs and Deepseed, Icarus and other sponsors donating heaps of prizes. The party at Hot Mamas was packed out with everyone enjoying a bar tab knowing that not too much jumping would be happening Sunday!

Thanks has to go to Lisa, Stu and the crew at Skydive Abel Tasman who rocked the boogie with their efficient and relaxed way of running the best sport skydiving event in New Zealand. If you didn’t make it this year, book it in for 2010 and we will see you all next year!
