No vid Dingo. I'll definitely be going back for the solo one day soon though so maybe that time. Quick search for Skydive express on youtube gets you a fair few vids. Maybe you should whack yours up there too.

Wow,
What an experience. Was absolutely awesome. That feeling of falling through the air is just incredible, it is impossible to describe.
Thankyou everyone i met there, all top blokes (and ladies). I will definately be down there in the next couple of weeks to do my AFF 2&3. Thanks Dugy for taking those pictures, and thank you Maark for capturing a brilliant DVD.
Well done to Skydive Express, they run a brilliant show there. Cannot recommend them enough.

Bugger mate. Sorry I missed you.
Whenever I saw them training a new bunch of Tandems I tried to find you as well.
Great to hear you loved it!
Thanks for coming and supporting the day!

extremely good point
but unfortunately I'm still waiting on the shoulder to heal properly as my movement is still reasonably restriced
I have just started to ride after being unable to for 3 months, but it will take about a year to heal correctly, hence: next year again please!
my surgeon has said 'No' to a jump at the moment, and he thinks I'm nuts to even consider it
Lastly, Mr. Crumpetman, that's a definite YES from me
