Lifted Entertainment at the World Free Fall Convention
August 2003 Rantoul, IL
by Dawn Suiter
The W.F.F.C. 2003 was home to Lifted Entertainment for 9 days during August.
Skydivers and spectators enjoyed the experience of bodyflight in the tunnel. Skydivers used the facility to practice some freestyle maneuvers while locals were excited to fly while not having to get into the airplane. The wind tunnel was the definite Hot Spot for several days during unsavory weather conditions. Fortunately, it was enough to encourage Brian & his crew to bring the wind tunnel back again next year. Thanks to Brain, Mike and Adam for the great time we all had, and we wish you all blue skies for the future.
Lifted Entertainment and John Suiter are pleased to announce themselves as being the "First Recorded In-Motion Vertical Wind Tunnel
Flight"...
...it was sunset, and the buzz was all over the drop zone.
Golf carts came from as far away as the RV Park loaded with curious skydivers. As they raised the staircase to begin their trek down the taxiway with a human being simultaneously flying in the air column. John Suiter is please to be the first to have accomplished this, and was happily joined in a 2-way flight by Lifted Entertainment Owner Brian DeNicolo. Special thanks to Adam Walsh of course, because without the driver this could not have been accomplished, and Mike Squires for his support, effort and willingness to give the limelight with others!
