Quincy 2001 - The Video
Martine Shot Films ProductionIf you have never been to the World Freefall Convention in Quincy you surely missed one cool event in your skydiving career. But it's not too late! You can still get some of the "flair in the air" and the atmosphere on the ground by watching Martini Shot Film's official Quincy 2001 video. |

For the first time Grant Carroll and MSF were in charge of the official WFFC video, and they produced a great piece of skydiving footage. Skydiving veterans, rookies and whuffos alike enjoyed very much watching it at our "review session" in the skyXtreme office.
The video is slam packed with awesome dives - RW, CRW, freeflying, small ways, big ways, tandem jumps, raft dives...you name it, Martini Shot Films has it caught on their video. The hybrid and tube dives, the helicopter rides and some of the best and funniest pond swoops ever seen let our jaws drop, and we got carried away by the pictures and the well chosen background music! One highlight of the video is a birdman jump where inventor of the birdman suit, Jari Kuosma from Finland, and his fellows chased a CRW stack. |
And boy, did we feel sorry for the camera flyer who had a bad spot and landed out in nowhere land and caught his odyssey on film as he was marching through the corn field mazes of Illinois with a running camera. Hilarious!
The WFFC will move to a different place in 2002 so you better get your mits on a copy of the last WFFC video ever made in Quincy...it's a piece of history, dude! |

Martini Shot Films has also put up a well designed web site with tons of high quality pictures from the WFFC 2001 which can be ordered as hard copies. Also the Quincy 2001 video can be ordered there and it is available as a family version and a mature version (contains adult language and nudity). Check out www.martinishotfilms.com and enjoy! |
