Description of the event
We present to you a brand new project for this years Ekstremsportveko. We have been allowed to borrow the landing raft (30×6m) as seen on the Veko swoop competitions on Vangsvatnet. The raft will be placed out in the Nærøyfjord and used to land safely after we open a new exit, which usually has no suitable landing area. As this is a pilot project we will have limited slots this year. This is to ensure the operation will go as smooth and safely as possible.
We will have rescue boats on the fjord in case of water landings. Flotation device is mandatory.
Attention! Being fit for hiking is highly recommended, the hike is approximately 1000meters of altitude gain on 5,5km. You should have plenty of energy to perform a safe BASEjump when you reach exit.
In the morning of the Raftboogie at 09.00 there will be a bus from Voss tinghus to Undredal, where we will be taken by boat to the start of the hike. After landing on the raft, a boat will shuttle jumpers to shore near the raft. When jumping is done there will be boat transport back to Undredal and a bus will take us back to Voss and the festival tent, in time for today`s video.
