5th DIPC Dubai, Day 9

Take another view of the competition on the organiser's Web Site - and view all the social media coverage and Results 

At the end of each day printable PDFs of the latest results will be available on the IPC Results Portal.

The party's over, it's time to say goodbye to Dubai until next year - thanks to all the competitors who made this such an exciting often very close and enjoyable competition.

Yesterday evening closed with the Medal Ceremony followed by a closing banquet on the Drop Zone (in the best DZ Restaurant in the world) and live music.

The last day we actually made 134 aircraft loads - and this picture is of the very last helicopter flight - with the tie break jumps for the Accuracy Landing Male first place - against the amazing backdrop of Dubai.

Just before the prize-giving started we were treated to a sun-set display by the Parabatix Skyracers - powered paragliders.

For those who had booked their departure for the 7th December 2014, providing you were registered for the DIPC5 be it, competitor, head of delegation or official, judge or one of the organisation, you had a bracelet, identity card and your rig had been checked - there were free jumps all day on the 6th. Starting at 9.30 the manifest would deal with jumpers on a first come first served basis until last light. Now that is an end to a party.

Thanks to everyone and see you next year.
