Come mountain flying in the Soča Valley! In this camp you learn how to practice mountain flying safely while enjoying spectacular views in the Julian Alps. This event is suitable for first time mountain flyers as well as experienced.

 
 

In Pure Mountain Flying we will fly nice mountain flying lines and perhaps do a fun innhopp or two. We’re aiming to fly at least three different lines and focus on repetition and discipline.

For this camp Johannes invited the flying polymath Andreas Mosling to join. We base the event out of Skydive Bovec and we jump from their Pilatus Porter. The event can host eight participants and takes place June 11-15 2024.

We expect a high demand and you should register as soon as possible. If you can’t join this event you can subscribe to The Skydiving Newsletter to get updates of future events or write Johannes directly to register your interest.

 
 

What’s the plan?

Tuesday June 11
We meet at 14.00 for a thorough briefing using illustrations and video - getting us ready mentally for our task. We are not jumping on this day. With time to go into depth about our activity, for you to ask questions and visualise the task we believe that the investment will have great return in terms of your safety, comfort and enjoyment. At 18.00 we enjoy an early team dinner and then go home to rest.

Wednesday June 12
We meet up at the DZ 08.00 and start the event with one or a few warm up jumps in the valley - practicing the techniques we will need to apply in the mountain flying. If conditions later allow we can begin with a mountain line.

Thursday June 13 - Saturday June 15
We fly the mountains when conditions allow and otherwise practice canopy flocking over Skydive Bovec. Mountains generally allow access in the morning and sometimes in the evening. Doing high pulls and flying formations is a pretty demanding task and we will most likely not do more than 4-5 jumps per day.

Sunday June 16 (Reserve day)
If certain conditions are not met in the preceding four days, we will possibly open up to also try to jump on this day.

Requirements?

  • Minimum 500 jumps total (For jumpers with less than 1000 jumps we would like to first speak to someone we know that can vouch for your skillset)

  • Minimum 50 jumps on canopy to be used.

  • Minimum 50 jumps last 3 months

  • Mobile phone with battery and data credit in Slovenia on all jumps.

  • Must have taken a canopy course.

  • Must demonstrate disciplined heading control post deployment

  • Must be aware of other jumpers location & intended build location while doing house keeping

 
 

What’s Included?

The event cost is 1355€ and includes:

-10 mountain flying jumps, led by Johannes Bergfors and Andreas Mosling.
-4 participants per leader
-Dedicated Ground Crew on the LZ:s
-Van-shuttles from LZ:s to Skydive Bovec
-Landing fees
-Thorough briefing on Day 1
-Team dinner on Day 1
-Briefings and coaching during the week from 8 til dusk.
-Souvenir :)

We are definitely hoping to do more than the included 10 mountain flying and/or valley jumps. In that case prices are as follows:
-Extra mountain flying (and other Out-Of-DZ Jumps) are 62,5 per person - assuming the camp is full. If it's not then the price is your share of the coach slot + 50€.
-Jumps over Skydive Bovec are 47,5€ - assuming the camp is full. If it's not then the price is your share of the coach slot + 38€.
-If we do less than 10 Out-Of-DZ-jumps, you will be refunded 62,5€ per jump not used.

If you are interested in shared accommodation you can register that in the form and we can arrange for you.
