chopchop 0 #2 January 21, 2003 It was fun. The boogie is at a casino next to the river. The landing area is small and on the side of a hill but no one had any serious problems with it. Slaton and the rest of Team Extreme did some pretty impressive demos and there was an area to swoop the river and land on the rocky beach. On one of the last loads of the boogie, they let anyone that wanted to try land on an island. That turned out to be a little challenging for most. There was a short van-ride to the airport from the hotel for each load and inexperienced jumpers could land at the airport. Flying over the river under canopy was fun (don't we all luv a whuffo audience) One guy did land in the water and got stuck in some reeds near the bank on the opposite side of the river. It took them a while to get the appropriate watercraft to fish him out. He was fine albeit a little embarrassed. The venue was good for your whuffo friends as rental boats and jet-skis were readily available. A few jumpers brought their own. All-in-all the turnout was a little light but it was a nice low-key boogie and if I can fit it into my schedule, I'll go again this year. chopchop gotta go... Plaything needs a spanking..
