The 2009 Perris Annual Holiday Boogie

The Perris Holiday Boogie is an annual event that attracts jumpers from all over the world. Due to the perfect-all-year-round-weather in Southern California, we are able to continue jumping, even if it snows elsewhere.

During the boogie I organized many Hybrid dives with Josh Hall and Erez Yaron. The jumps were extremely successful, and a lot of fun also.

Other cool things that happened during the boogie were the 40ish ways organized by Mark Brown. With a good dose of fun and a pinch of chaos, the 40ish ways added plenty of spice to the mix.

During the boogie, Fury thought it would be a great time to give back to the dropzone with their “Fury Free Week”. We had a good number of participants and they certainly got their money’s worth. With Fury offering everything from ground coaching to 3-on-1, all the participants had a great time and learned a lot as well.

Rose Bowl Demo

On January 17th I will be taking part in the 2009 Rose Bowl Demo. The demo is to promote an event titled “Welcome Home Defenders of Freedom”. The purpose is to help increase community respect for our service members returning from past and present campaigns.
