No World Free-Fall 2007 ;-(

A suprise thunderstorm with small hail from 1/4" to 1/2" hit parts of Dayton, Ohio on April 14, 2007 in an environment you would last expect to see such weather. This hail fell on the backside of a strong low pressure system with surface temperatures in the upper 30's and light rain mixing with snow.



The 2007 World Free Fall Convention has been CANCELLED this year! This is to the disappointment of many skydivers from all over the world who look forward to this event each year. For 17 years, this has been a yearly event, originally in Quincy, IL then in Rantoul, IL. I was planning to attend this event once again this year of 2007, and after hearing this news, was more than happy I did so last year in 2006! There is no official news on why this event was cancelled, but you can read about it more by clicking the picture above!
