chuckakers 426 #1 February 27, 2006 Hey there Skypeople, Just saw the closing ceremonies of the Olympics. The "showcase" for the ceremony was a pretty darned impressive display of open air tunnel work!!! They did various representations of Olympic events, including a dude on skis and another on a snowboard/skyboard!! The way they lit the show made it look like the tunnelrats were floating in space - go figure! You just know the viewer was curious - maybe even excited. OK, maybe I'm wrong, but I was impressed with the fact that it was part of the closing ceremonies of the Olympics. Given the size of the TV audience, it can't be bad for skydiving in general and wind tunnels more specifically. It's a long shot, but maybe this could rekindle the skydiving flame that the market seems to have lost. At the least I'm sure it will spur google searches that will turn into phone calls to tunnels and - hopefully - DZ's. What we turn those calls into is entirely up to the people answering the phones...and you if the caller ends up at the DZ. Just a thought, Chuck p.s. BJ, did you put this together? It had your first class signature. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
