Latest News - February 2006
Skydive Spain is a successful skydiving centre. We are proud of all our students as they pass through our courses and want to give testimonials of their experiences with us.

We also have many experienced jumpers coming over to visit. Some are here for team training, some for holidays and some want to take part in seasonal boogies.

13th February 2006 - Cirque du Soleil
9 guys from the Cirque du Soleil (www.cirquedusoleil.com) took timeout on their one day off a week to come and do a tandem skydive on 13th Feb. We picked them up from their hotel and brought them to La Juliana ready for a bit of breakfast and then straight on with the briefing.
Once the jumping started their excitement was incredible. Take a look at the photos below. A group of us from Skydive Spain are really looking forward to seeing the show next week.
