... is
an organization of
like-minded skydivers who have made at least one naked skydive. The
goals of the SANS are to promote naked jumping and give members a way
of proclaiming that they are part of the naked jumping community.
... is the
word is French for "without",
as in without clothing. For the purpose of a definition, nude from
elbow to elbow and neck to knees. Obviously the parachute harness is
allowed. Safety items like helmet, goggles, gloves, altimeter, and
footwear are also permitted.
... to join
The SANS is open to anyone
who has EVER made a naked skydive. Any naked jump from an
aircraft is cool. Tandem jumps or student jumps that have been made
"sans" qualify. Jumps from the past qualify, as long as they were naked.
... is not
about naked pictures.
Sorry if Google got you here and you were expecting to see more.
... do
we jump naked? The concise
answer is "Because we can." Each individual jumper has their own
specific reason for skydiving sans-jumpsuit. The fact of the matter is
that whatever the reason, we have the ability and the fortitude to make
that leap.
