The AFF Story

A little while back I went to Elsinore and shot 2 tunnel instructors who were taking the AFF Instructor’s course.  One had about 200 jumps and the other had fewer than 50.  It was an experiment to see if hundreds of hours of tunnel time could replace hundred of skydives.  While I shot the two of the instructors teaching their students, the photos themselves tell the story.

Skydive Mag thought the same thing and create a photo tutorial of some of the shots from that session.  Here is that story for you to take in.

Lost Prairie Boogie

I have always wanted to go to the Lost Prairie Boogie put on by Skydive Arizona up in the middle of no where Montana.  Back in the day I remember seeing amazing pictures when team Monkey Claw went up there and had their fun.  Lately it’s been the crew out of AZ.  This time around Nick, Bill, Ty, Brandon & Amy from AZ came up to organize the kids and see what trouble they could get into!  This was also a stop on the Hittin It Again Summer Boogie tour by SkyVenture Colorado.

Montana is indeed a beautiful place, big sky country for sure.  The DZ is located in the middle of a little valley with literally a huge prairie in the middle where we land.  From freefall you look out and see a couple of massive clear lakes in the distance and the enormous prairie underneath.  I was lucky enough to get in some fun jumps including filming the Montana POPS record!
