Latest News - May 2007
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.

Skydive Spain hosted a FEADA 3-way formation skydiving competition over the weekend of the 26th & 27th, the results were: in 1 place - Indalo, 2 place - 3K3 and in 3 place were Paraclub Sevilla. See the FEADA pictures below.

During the month, we also had a few nights out to the local entertainment complex and enjoyed a night of bowling, see the photos below. We also made a trip into Seville, and the bars of the closest town to the DZ, Bollulos de la Mitación.
