CSpenceFLY 1 #1 October 23, 2006 We just returned from our round robin trip to Chambersburg,Pa.,Bath,Me and Bridge Day.Man what a trip.Almost perfect weather for the entire 10 days we were on the road.I had tried to get to the bridge in '01,'02' and '03 with no success.We have done the Mountain Boogie the last two years on the same weekend. For anyone that has thought about it you need to go do it.The short moment between the person in front of you jumping and when they clear you to jump takes you back to your first time standing in the door of an airplane about to change your life forever.I'm not sure if BASE jumping is something I will do alot of but I will do more and will definitely be returning to Bridge Day.

PrairieDoug 0 #19 October 23, 2006 Chris -- It was great to meet you up at Chambersburg even though the winds kept us grounded that day. Hopefully we'll cross paths again at some point. What a fantastic pic of you with your Pelt Head helmet. We are so proud! Doug Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

base689 0 #23 October 23, 2006 That's a really good exit, Spence!!! My compliments indeed Very good arch, flat, stable and symmetric Way to go P.S.: Would you mind, please, to explain to a poor non-US bloke what on earth a "Pelt Head helmet" is?

base689 0 #24 October 23, 2006 > P.S. It's me Compliments to you too, Kelly. Nice stable and sound exit indeed. Symmetric as well What I would really like to do at least once in my life time is to partecipate to a Bridge Day event, not exactly for jumping that object in particular, please, do not take it offensively, but I would not cross the ocean only to jump a ( very nice) 876 ft - 267 m object, rather to partecipate to the event itself, with all those people, to meet in person folks I have been in touch only by e-mail and phone Bridge Day must be such an outstanding event before, during and after the 6 h jumping Stay safe out there Blue Skies and Soft Walls BASE #689 - base_689AT_NO_123_SPAMyahoo.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
