Rice also said he plans to take his three-year-old son
on a first-jump tandem skydive while a European partner
will bring his children, aged 10 and 11 for a similar
stunt.
Both children have reportedly completed tandem
jumps at the age of two and currently hold the world
record for the youngest tandem skydiving passengers.
Should qualified candidates be found, Rice said he also
intends to bring along some newscasters or reporters,
and some showbiz personalities daring enough to join
a first-jump tandem skydive. This will be free of
charge.
Aside from dives and jumps that will serve as main attraction,
the festival will also feature a trade show to
be joined by airline operators and sports-gear manufacturers.
Rice said the organizers will also line up tours to various
adventure sports attractions in the Subic free port,
where festival participants could also engage in horseback
riding, scuba diving, kite boarding jet skiing,
wake boarding and parasailing, among others.
He added that Subic is an ideal location for formation
skydiving because it has its own airport, and the place
is accessible to both local and foreign participants.
Rice also said that in bringing skydiving to Subic, the
organizers hope to break skydiving records here in the
Philippines where only small groups had so far attempted
formation dives.
