Female Estonian skydivers set a new Estonian record by building a formation of 14 jumpers near Parnu on July 18th, reports LETA/BNS.

 

The new record was set on the third attempt as part of the international air sports camp Parasummer and it was taken on video by the coach of the Estonian female skydivers, Pete Allum. It took the women 50 seconds to build the formation, spokespeople for Skydive Estonia said.

 

Thierry Courtin, judge with the FAI world governing body for air sports, confirmed the record the same evening.

 

The previous Estonian women's skydiving record was a formation built by 10 jumpers in 2012.

 

Approximately 200 skydiving enthusiasts from 19 countries are taking part in the 18th Parasummer camp held in Parnu from July 14-23.
