Thomas Hughes was load organizing at Becca's Bootie Boogie. This video includes two jumps with him on Saturday, first a sunset 8-way and then a 12-way.
The 8-way lineup for this jump included Kris Peterson and her complete new 4-way team. Event organizer Rebecca Minkin was also jumping with Thomas Hughes, together with NSL News reporter Kurt Gaebel.
Most participants still wanted and jumped in smaller groups, as it was an opportunity to learn a lot from the world class coaches. The last two videos of this clip show the same 4-way group and the progress. Former Sebastian Tempest member Chris Ash was filming those jumps. He also helped as the coach for the group.
A new live NSL Talk with Becca follows the 12-way video. It was a lively situation, as the boogie activities were going on at the same time, and a few observers of the NSL Talk provided an interesting backdrop - on the opposite side of the camera.
Becca explained what motivated her to launch her Bootie Boogie in 2009 and why she plans to keep it going. She loves 4-way jumping and wants to offer beginners in the sport a belly flying arena before they decide to become freeflyers or belly flyers and competitors or recreational skydivers. She is currently in the process of putting her own 4-way lineup together.
The 4-way jumps at the end of the video feature once again the scenic view of the Atlantic Ocean. The NSL News will visit Skydive Sebastian at least two more times this year when the DZ will host its meets of the Florida Skydiving League 2010 season.
