Help out some students !

Hey everyone,

So we got an email from a couple of visual arts students at NYU to help them out with some group funding. They are shooing a film that involves skydiving and need some support. Some US military have already helped them out with a scene or two, and we figured we’d help out a couple of guys get their project in the air.

ALWAYS look around you! Especially under canopy!

o my dismay, today I learned about an unfortunate accident that happened in Eloy, AZ.
Two skydivers passed away in an accident that should never have happened. Two skydivers collided at about 200-300 feet off the ground.
I’m not one to give morals as I know that accidents happen and sometimes you just don’t see the person, but things like this really suck to hear about…
(In CRW we aim at flying in each others’ canopies, but we don’t fly towards each other at such a low altitude in case some of you were thinking that)
I’m really saddened to hear about this, but I just wanted to point out that this is a brutal and harsh reminder of the realities of the sport… Keep your eyes peeled and ALWAYS look around you when you’re under canopy! EVEN if you’re just going straight down for a landing, you never know if someone else didn’t notice you…
