Re: [sum1sneaky] Zakynthos Island, Greece!
Whats Greece's stance on jumping there? I seen some videos from the recent event there looks like an awesome spot.

Hell, in a place like that, I'd do a go and throw just to fly the canopy around and look at everything. You don't get those kinds of visuals every day!

for a go and throw would you pack slider-up or slider down/off ? Angelic

Hrmmmm... I see your point. A go and throw packed SU would snivel an unacceptably long time (for reference, see any Bridge Day video). That would indeed burn precious visual-gawking time, so I retract my earlier statement. Instead, I would do a PCA SU, thereby maximizing the time I could fly around. Smile

Re: [shegget] Zakynthos Island, Greece!
could i get away with taking the bride-to-be to this place for honeymoon? is there other stuff to do / nice places to stay and eat there?

i'll have to mail myself a rig, i was told not allowed to turn honeymoon into base trip, but if i just so happen to stumble on a 600' cliff and just so happen to find a rig in the mail, i dont think she'd stop me from jumping.
