End of Day 1

Its been a great day today and not what we expect. The forecast was very mixed, yet we experienced a lot of sunshine. Some disciplines have finished all their rounds already, such as Freefly A and B, Freestyle A. The 8-way Senior has the most still to complete with some teams having gotten as far as round 7 and needing to make another 3 jumps.

In the Speed Skydiving, its really worth noting newcomer Eddie Monteith. Other than 2 training jumps on the Friday, he currently has an average of 235 mph with 1 round left to do. Breaking that 200 mph barrier is a real achievement.

For those of you who know Al and Pixie from the Freestyle A, they have gone on to win a 4th successive gold medal. Is this a record? They took a commanding 13.9 point lead over Dunkerswell team Freestyle99.com.
