my freind and i stow and jump our 46's all the time. i have seen no problem with it, and neither has he. i jump BJ-ZP 260, he jumps troll 280. i can see your point, but it fits fine in our BOCs, and it comes out just as well as a 42. the PCs have a cordura cap, just like the stowable 42. I have seen a 48 go stowed, only once. looked fine. BOC was big. i dont have a 48, and dont want one.

the edge has been found and worn down so much its boreing as hell these days. go find your own edge, an new one. one the rest of us have missed thus far. good advice.

hasnt this been done before? 14 times? 240 BASE jumps, no accidents. only a lot of near misses, 240 near misses to be exact.

what are you talking about? I BASE for the number, I BASE to say i have done that. I BASE to be Hardcore, I BASE to jump from the highest or the lowest. -SPACE-

whatever, im just trying to catch up with tom in post quantity.

yes magot, good job. well, i duct taped a TRV-70 to my 661 once for arope jump. worked great. of course, i had to take it off the helmet to take the tape out, or watch the footy. idea- sew a chincup strap onto the existing strap, and make the helmet solid on your head. then, drill a hole in the helmet, put a HUGE plastic washer through the 1/4" screw, and put the cam on that. OR. buy a bulletcam, and gaphers tape it to you 661 like everyone else.

absolutely not, sadly.

do it on the ground for the most part before climbing. at exit, """""leg straps, chest strap, pilot chute, balls,'''''''''''' i cant take credit for that, its deadmans check. i use it every jump now.

for Calvin's benefit, I assume the above means that 50% of the people admitted to an emergency room after having fallen 90ft into water die. the emergency room statistics are just that they do not take into account the people who do not get injured, or get injured but do not make it to the emergency room, or die but do not make it to the emergency room please correct me if I've gotten this wrong I can see that. because if that is true, me and 3 of my MN boys need some scientific testing, and to bust out our contracts with satan, cause we have the best luck of anyone. I bet me and those kids have 200 80-90'rs, the only injury i ever saw was a fat 45 year old lady, (that i know well) she enterered the water about 20 degrees head back, and came up with bruises that appeared so fast, it was scary. LP hospital sees a lot of that we found out.

dont? I have a seperate helmet for filming, i wear my 661 when im not filming or not doing a two way.

http://www.raesmith.com/the_last_photo_i_ever_took_contest.htm thats the site... funny pics. i bet this is a repost though.

that first pic in this thread is from a photoshop contest, i think it was called 'the last picture i ever took', there was a lot of other cool ones as i remember. like a shot of a golf all about one meter away from cameraman... etc -SPACE-

thats the one! thank you. and i like your sig line. faster my freind, faster.

not what i was talking about, but thats cool, even though its been posted in every forum everywhere and im sick of seeing it. i was talking about thebuilding jumpers, the kids that take HUGE jumps from building to building. maybe i was dreaming. i dono. but i have jumped 90', and it pisses me off to think that someone thinks there is a 50/50 chance of liveing theough a jump like that. that means i have cheated death on cliff jumps and won a lot. was not replying to anyone in particular.

even all the tandem paraglide rigs i have seen are between 30 and 45 ^meters, and thats nowhere close to 745^2 feet

wanna go paragliding now? goodspeed in your travels.

I assume you mean, triping and falling. not a controled jump. is there not some russian kids that do close to 10 meter land jumps?

who the hell is comeing up with this shit? 50%? dont get me started on fat people. just dont. and arms above your head, covering your junk, or at your side. if wearing a life vest as i sometimes do, arms crossed over chest. after i was base jumping for a year, and then over the summer went back to the big cliff jumps in MN, i was worried i would mess up exits and impact more face down. but, i guess its like riding a bike. only, scary.

i dont know what you can get from this compilation, there is not a lot of us out there, and i doubt it will be accurate. but... for 180 jumps- Dagger 222/150lbs. .68 for 40 jumps- Blackjack 260/150lbs .57 I only have 1 mal, I blew a toggle on the dagger, due to the worthless short metal pin toggles.

impact force for the individual would be different because of weight, but the personal relative impact forces would be the same. hmm.... homeslice is right, we should bring the black hole into this. but we are assuming that the jumpers are all fairly well built kids, not fat, slobby beer belly bitches.

You might be right about that. The nature of my post, after re-reading it sounded more serious than I intended. I know the deathcamp name is taken, I was just being argumentative. argumentative?! dude, get off dropzone.com, seriously. anything argumentative or sarcastic here is looked down upon.

damn guys, we are talking about cliff jumping. this is not Apollo. for the most part, all water is the same (assuming salt water, mineral water, etc). and ALL that matters for the impact on water assuming it is still water, is speed. thats it.

http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2007456&l=492f0&id=203002032 dont know who you were replying to. two way is the 80' me and hobbes are standing on the 'white rock' in the other. and the freefall BASE was very low, some say it has been cliff jumped, but the same peopl say the whit rock was cliff jumped, even though like i said it would take a dirtbike to clear the talus.

What, it can't have multiple meanings? To me it was the comprehensive nature of the course, and the intensity that warranted the name. It was a long 7 days, we didn't have much time for anything else. Even jumping through the night until 5:00 am. (one guy on the course with even jumping with a broken foot - unbeknownst to him at the time, but still) If that's not a deathcamp, what is? dude, deathcamp is the well known name for a BASE jump/lesson with no skydive experience. while im sure the course is great, the name is just trying to be cool

learn how to cliff jump. never did anything of the sort, to me
