posted Jul 7th, 2016 - This is the roving reporter Joey Jones, powered by Sun Path, coming to you from Odense Parachute Club, site of the 2016 Danish National Championships. Although the two practice days prior to the meet were plagued by weather, we got an early start this morning.

Kate Cooper and the Prime Pickles have just returned from a 136-jump camp in Perris with Coach Christy Frikken. They completed this number of jumps in 100+ degree heat in 12 days. Despite the conditions they came back ready to rock and looking to upset Pangea, the current national team.

Pangea was selected to replace the VAF Warriors at the upcoming World Meet in Chicago due to the VAF Warriors pulling out because of injury. Pangea has had a busier tunnel season, but their only camp was marred by weather with only 32 jumps made. It looks like we might have quite a showdown.

Also in the AAA category is Danish National female team Valkyrie, coached by Pete Allum. While he is not present, they have been working hard with him in Empuria this season, and we look forward to seeing continued progress.

The 4th team in the AAA Class is a pickup team consisting of two members of the former national team VAF Warriors and two former members of the Danish Project. It is always exciting when you add an experienced pickup team in the mix. I look forward to seeing how this all plays out.

In the A Class there are five Danish teams and one guest team, Airwolves from Poland.
