Here is the issue


I was recently contacted by Jeff Roberts who has compiled a list of all jumpers who have jumped over 200 feet (the 200 foot club).  This list is available at:
http://www.iwsf.com/iwsftc/2018/200List081418.xls  

Oldtimers might remember the Century Club, an AWSA program for jumpers.  They were awarded a cloth emblem on their first jump over 100 ft.  At a later point a 150 ft club was started - I believe sponsored by Correct Craft - but also now lost to history.

What Jeff would like is several things.  He would like his list published in a forum where it will be checked by skiers so that anyone missed can be added.
He would like his list automatically updated by our scorebook input process, thus perpetuating it.

Of course doing this would make it an official IWWF program which would then be maintained by IWWF.

Comments please.

Ryan Dodd comments: Honestly 200 ft is like running 35 or 38 off now. It’s  a cool number .
I think maybe a club that has didfeeent levels of recognition with different rewards and levels of distinction . 200 ft means nothing for he last 20 years and never even makes a finals .
I say a club for girls and guys with different levels 
For example :
Girls : 50 m club, 55 m club 60 m club . You get some certificate or trophy and are noted and recognized. Guys 60 m club 70 m club 80 m club . Or 200 225 250 
Whatever the numbers are but 3 tiers to work towards .
200 ft was impressive 30 years ago ... we need to motivate kids to beat the current best of today not of the past.
That’s what i think .
