German Parachuting School in Sinj These Days

A parachute fever known as Croatia Boogie 2016 rules over the sky above Sinj these days. For the second time, the German school of parachuting My SkyConcept is organising parachute jumps over the sports airport Piket, which is in use of the Sinj Aero Club and surrounding aero clubs, informs Splitski Portal.

Similar to last year, My SkyConcept comes with Pilatus PC-6 Turbo Porter, an aircraft that is more than capable to handle this task. 15 minutes are needed for a parachute flight of 4000 m, 20 minutes for 5000 m. There are Croatian (mostly from the "Graviton" Split parachuting club) and foreign paratroopers involved in the event.

My SkyConcept is led by Yvonne Hotchicke (skydiving instructor with about 600 jumps) and Saša Manjolović (holder of an certification for all parachute jumps and with approx. 8000 jumps / First jump in Sinj far back in 1981). This couple is providing training for parachutes and tandem jumpers, as well as everything related to parachuting for 11 years now. If you like parachuting, aviation or just thinking about a destination for a good trip, stop by at Piket and enjoy this happy international gathering until April 5, 2016.

Tandem Skydiving Available in Sinj

I am sure, many dream about trying it out someday. Jumping out of a plane to experience a free fall before opening a parachute to securely land on earth again afterwards. Yes, skydiving is a dream of many.

 

For some it will remain just a dream and for others, an opportunity may come to really try it out. This is one of those. From today up to August 2, 2015 you can arrange a tandem skydive from 3000 m above the Sinj Airport costing 1.500 Kn per jump (video recording included).

For more information, contact Tandem Extreme or Cetina Adventure. Good luck and let us know how it was!!
