Skydive Robertson Photo and Video Competition

 

We’re having a photo and video competition starting off in June. Submit your skydive/dropzone related pictures/video and stand a chance to win awesome prizes at the end of the year. There will be monthly winners for both categories. EVERYONE is invited to enter, whether you’re a spectator at the dropzone, first time jumper, student, visitor, experienced, manifest ... EVERYONE!

You DONT need an expensive or fancy camera to enter, nor do you have to be a person who jumps with a camera. If you don’t own your own camera, borrow one! Submissions will be displayed on the club website (www.skydive.co.za), really good ones may make it onto the BlueSkiesMag website (www.blueskiesmag.com) and/or magazine. So come on, get your camera’s out and capture our sport (and other antics) as you see it. Who knows, it could make you famous!!!
