Splash check-in will close 1/2 hour before the splash begins.  Briefings for each splash will start 15 minutes before the start of a splash.

Please note that if any pre-entries that are not paid for on first check-in on Saturday or Sunday they will be removed from the splash and will be sold as day-of entry price even if you want to pay for them later. 

Day of registrations will be allowed each day, on the day you wish to jump until there is no space.  Air Retrieve will have Day of spots available, but we will not have a waiting list once pre-registrations fills.  All spots are on a first come basis, as this is the fairest for everyone.

Remember for facility finals it's the highest score, but a minimum 3 jumps to qualify.  Sunday Finals will be immediately following the last splash!
