"We’re welcoming some of the best skydivers in the world to enjoy the new jump area that has recently opened to the public. We want to start planning with them in order to break the World Record in 2014," said Diego Orozco, from Skydivemex, who are the organizers of the event.

According to Orozco this year will be a true celebration, with more than 100 skydivers jumping from over 13,000 feet, with a freefall lasting over 1 minute. They will reach a speed of 125 mph before they open their parachutes and begin their planned descent to the beaches in front of the Hard Rock Hotel Vallarta.

"There will be skydivers jumping continually for 10 days, and the skies of Riviera Nayarit will dress up in color, providing a great show. It will also open up possibilities for those who have never experienced skydiving, as they’ll be able to do it in tandem with some of the best professionals in the world. The goal of this event is to promote and develop the sport" stated the head of Skydivemex.
