jceman 1 #9 December 30, 2003 Great vid -- nice job by Andrea too. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McDuck 0 #10 December 30, 2003 I was wondering who that was flinging limbs all over the place. That looked INCREDIBLY cool.

Push 0 #13 December 30, 2003 Haha, hey Lou, what's up? You mean STI opens in February? There are plenty of dropzones open all year. In fact, I've done 7 jumps this weekend, all from 10,500 PST, Burnaby and Dunnville all jump when there's enough people there. Feel free to drop by the PST any weekend that's not snowed in, I'll probably be there. -- Toggle Whippin' Yahoo Skydiving is easy.

skymama 35 #14 December 30, 2003 Hey, Lookie, there's me! I just logged on to check out the mayhem in the forums. We're having a great time and the balloon jump was a definite highlight. James did a great job with the whole video. What you didn't see were the jumpers swooping by the balloon....THAT was interesting!

kevin922 0 #16 December 31, 2003 I wish i had video of my 1st balloon jump i did out there a few days ago -- i did a wingsuit out of it with 3 other wingsuits on board.. got 40 seconds from 5k :) grrr no video *sniffle* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflyguy 0 #17 December 31, 2003 QuoteNice exit and framing, I know how hard it can be to film Balloon jumps on your back. Thanks. Dead air launches. Trippy, I was very happy with how it came off. It is so easy to screw it up. We left from 5k, then landed out in the desert. So, not the jump for super inexperienced. I think they require a "B" license, but I am not sure. Do it when you can, sort of a leagle, 2 parachute base jump. Very cool. Hi Randy, sorry you couldn't make it, haven't seen you in a while. ---------------------------- bzzzz Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
