Skydiver of the Year 2007 - Christy Frikken

Those of you that subscribe to Skydiving Magazine know that each year the Magazine selects a skydiver that has stood out for their contributions to the sport and awards the title "Skydiver of the Year".     The selection is based on nominations received and this year Christy Frikken of team Perris Fury is being recognized for her vast contributions to the sport and chosen discipline of Formation Skydiving. 

If you haven't seen the March issue of the Skydiving Magazine, you should definitely try to get your hands on a copy - turn to page 6 and read up on Christy and her team (if you just can't wait for the mag, you can also get the story from the NSL website).
PD has been working with Perris Fury as a team for a little over a year now (although we have known Christy since she was just a little skydiving girl getting demo canopies from PD).  The team members have proven themselves to be both very talented skydivers but also incredibly professional and pleasant to work with.   We are privileged to have athletes such as Christy, Josh, Chris, Uli and Nik as ambassadors for PD - you guys (and gal!) absolutely rock.   If you want to see a little bit more of Fury in action, check out their photo album on the PD Blog.

The PD Blog would like to caution Christy to stay very clear of Norwegian jumpers, they seem to have a thing for the Skydiver of the Year title, and like to paint houses pink.....   or maybe that was just Shannon Pilcher that brought it out in them :)

Christy, we are incredibly proud of you and wish you all the best in future endeavors!
