freeflysoul 0 #1 February 2, 2004 Just talking with a friend... Jumping off the top of a pillar of a local S (the only possible exit point off that object), would be considered a S jump or an A jump? 3,2,1,C-YA!!! V.

base428 1 #2 February 2, 2004 A building is a B An antenna is an A A span (bridge) is an S A cliff (earth) is an E A dam is a dam A smokestack is a smokestack A hot air balloon tethered at 500' is a skydive If you have to ask what an object is, it probably ISN'T what you want it to be. Don't mess with the system. A bridge pillar is a SPAN! In fun.....Cya.(c)2010 Vertical Visions.

BASE813 0 #3 February 2, 2004 I think if you are jumping a bridge pillar and landing on the deck of a span this would be more an O……………. If you jump the pillar and open below the deck then it’s a span………… In the end I only catorgrise each jump that is obvious what it is – everything else is an “O” – in any case this is for my own personal records. In the end it’s a BASE jump……………….. have fun with it!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflysoul 0 #4 February 2, 2004 this was also my point of view. But, in effect, my friend said that you must consider the way to jump technically that object. And, in effect, that S can be jumped only like an A... Just wondering... 3,2,1,C-YA!!! V. BASE #1075 / BMI #I-002 / PFI #042 / EGI #104 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BASE2010 0 #5 February 2, 2004 Its your logbook, so write what you want. But, if it is one of your 4 qualifying jumps for BASE umber, it should be exctly what it is supposed to be, not a crane "attached to a building", or a dam that is "like a cliff" or a pillar that is "technically jumped like an antenna". If it is a jump not for number qualification, then write what you want, as for me, if it isnt one of the 4 its an other. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BASE2010 0 #7 February 3, 2004 Ha! IF you didn't like that on again, what of this: Read a airplane strike a tower. So it did collapse. Now, if they built it new and you jump it again, is it now a new objet? See what this stirs up mother-H. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here's my catch-all answer to this and other silly questions like it: WHO CARES? go make a jump. mh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
