 Bungee Jumping Clubs in the UK
As far as I know there are only 3 standards associations in the
U.K. BERSA,SABB (Standards Assiociation
of British Bungy, I am not sure if this is still in operation) and
EBSA (European Bungee Sports Association). Clubs do not have to be
affiliated to a standards association to operate in the U.K., but an
affiliated club does have to maintain certain standards. This is worth
bearing in mind when deciding who to jump with.
