We recently finished our Xmas Boogie ’22 with a record-breaking 81 flights in one day and more than 300 skydivers over the course of the event. We couldn’t be more pleased with the way the event went.
Great weather conditions most of the days, everybody jumping a lot in the sun, Christmas dinner, New Year’s Eve party, live concert and our super popular daily raffles, with amazing prizes from our partners and Regan Tetlow directing the show.
To get some insights from one of our LOs, we have got together with Andreas Mosling to ask him some questions about the event and his plans for 2023.
What image comes to mind first when you think of our recent Xmas Boogie?
Sunshine, lots of smiles and lots of jumps!
How were you involved in the Boogie, what did you do?
I was Load Organising, making sure people had some fun and safe skydives.
Was this your first Xmas Boogie? (If not… next question – If so, how do you think it´s evolving over the years?)
This was my third XMAS boogie. I think it is the place to be in Europe if you are looking to do some cool jumps over the holidays.
For those who haven´t experience Skydive Spain´s Xmas Boogie, how would you describe it?
Sunny, warm and good vibes.
What do you take away from this Xmas Boogie?
I made a lot of new friends from all over the world, and it was great seeing old friends again. Then getting to share the skies with those people!
In your opinion, what sets Skydive Spain´s Xmas Boogie apart from other Boogies?
Quality Aircraft, Organisation and weather. The DZ doing more than 1000 jumps on multiple days says something about the volume of jumps being done at this boogie.
We are just starting the new year. What plans do you have for 2023?
Lots of skydiving and flying planned. Spending winter traveling around skydiving and tunnel flying in Europe, Dubai and America. Some skiing and speedriding at home in Voss. Then summer in Europe for more skydiving, paragliding and speedflying.
Are participating in any other skydiving events this year?
I have a lot of events in the calendar already. Some of the highlights are TrackAttack in Skydive Tønsberg, Moving Days in Skydive Voss, Adventure Boogie in Skydive Bovec, Mountain flying camp in Skydive Bovec and mega stoked about a Skydiving Expeditions – Norway edition – where we will be skydiving from the south of Norway to the middle, jumping in some of the most beautiful locations I have ever been.
Such a cool list of places that are breathtaking to see during a week of skydiving all at different locations
Sorry, but we couldn´t avoid to include this question to end the interview… any fun new year´s resolution in mind or already in the making?
More flying, more fun, being less sh** 😉
Thanks again for having me at the X-Mas Boogie!! Looking forward to the next one!!
Thank you Andreas!
