Thanks PD!

Performance Designs featured Spaceland Blue in the header of their home page.

Back in April, Brian Buckland took an excellent picture of the Optimum reserve which was used in
an advertisement by Performance Designs. Brian was given credited for the ad in this month's
Parachutist (below, right), however, if you take a close look at the same advert in this month's
British Skydiving Magazine "The Mag", I was credited for Brian's image (below, left).

Alright Brian, just to make you feel better, here is an advertisement (above) for the same product featuring you as the model. ... Now you are famous! :)

We have also created a new Facebook account  ... so if we are not friends yet, you know what to do ;)

Canopy Skills Camp

On August 27th, Axis Flight School held a basic canopy skills camp at Skydive Elsinore. The course consisted of some theoretical course work, three low altitude hop and pops, two high altitude hop and pops, and a canopy kiting session.

While passing through Germany, Brianne and I also paid a visit to Go Jump!, a DZ near Gransee.

The DZ had excellent facilities including the newest equipment, a fast Pac-750, and a great little bistro.
