Daniel Cunneen – Completed AFF

The skydiving week was off to a wet start on Monday 22nd March, and Tuesday and Wednesday. There was no jumping.

Thursday was better weather, no more rain but a touch windy. Sara’s Canopy Handling group got three jumps done.  Mikel Acuna Lumberas did one jump towards his B-Licence.

Friday was fantastic weather. Sara’s Canopy Handling course continued. Fun jumpers started arriving and we ended up doing 9 Caravan loads – two of them night loads! On ya Oli!

Tony van der Linde did Stage 4,  Ari Kanazawa did Stages 5, 6 & 7 of his AFF Course, and Daniel Cunneen did Stages 8 & 9 – completing his AFF Course.
