Sochi Skypark BASE Days
Since 2015 I’ve been organizing an annual BASE festival at the Sochi SkyPark. In the early years it was an event for russian jumpers, but now we are ready to invite jumpers from all world.

The main object - 207 m. (680 feet) bridge with comfortable exit point and proper (but not ideal) landing zone just under the bridge.
We can also jump from 230 m. (750 feet) zipline (this is the coolest, as for me).
The object allows to jump slider-up configuration with 4 sec delay.

You can watch videos from past events:

In 2019 the festival will last 4 days, we will do 4 jumps per day.
Dates: 9-13 October
(9 - briefing, 1 jump. 10-13 - 4 jumps per day)

Entrance fee - 17.000 rubles (~230 euro)

Included: entrance to the bridge and zip-line, transport from LZ to the bridge, T-shirt, a lot of fun :)

We also provide information for obtaining a russian visa and accommodation.

This year we plan to renew the world record of the most massive BASE jump from the bridge (2018 - 26 way).

Safety is our main priority. We jump on a private object due to a good relationship with its owner. In case of an accident or fatality, jumping on this object will be prohibited - forever and for everyone. So we have a face control. You must prove your experience and provide recommendations.

Minimum requirements:
For bridge - 70 jumps, slider-up experience.
For Zip-Line - basic acrobatics - at least back exit and turn to belly position.

Also I ask to provide your flight ticket to Russia to confirm registration.

Registration will begin in late July.
