Belly Bash (21st January)
“Big shout out to all 22 of you bloody legends who attended the first Belly Bash of 2023! We had an absolute belter watching you building formations, shredding hurdle relays, and spinning blocks – you all smashed it! Huge thanks to all our sponsors who make this event possible – Australian Parachute Federation, Skydive Ramblers, Toogoolawah Skydivers Club Inc, South Queensland Parachute Council, Mee Loft, our amazing camera fliers – Michael Young and Alan Roach, and Beatrice Argenti and Alex Lay for the pack jobs! Oh, and probably should say thanks to Ben Nordkamp for heading-up the rescue mission to bring 9 of us back from various paddocks!”

One of my all time favorite dropzones in all the world, which is saying something, because I have jumped at hundreds of dropzones. Wonderful people running the place, wonderful people jumping there. Safe operation in every way, and tons of fun!
