Yes, I did a total Cutaway. I did not have to save any money because I did not throw away the handles, it only cost me a repack...

Prusik: The page is in German but it is self explaining: http://www.stichel-frei.de/sicherung/knoten/prusik.shtml If somenone throws you down a rope you can climb up or down the rope with this knot if you have two smaller ropes of maybe each 2 meters (aprox. 6.56167979003 feet... :-)) Cheers Michi (#1068) hsbc/gba/sba www.swissbaseassociation.ch www.michibase.ch

It's a nice film with beautiful pictures of parts of Latin America. It shows why Che became what he was. It shows the big injustice of the social differences of the Latin American people. It shows the friendship of two men. I liked the movie but I'm a European who is leaving in LA for the last 4 years. I, like most non North Americans, do not share the same hate and fear towards Cuba like most North Americans. I smoke my Romeo and Juliette with great pleasure!! :-) By the way, why is Cuba bad and China not?? Michi (#1068) hsbc/gba/sba www.swissbaseassociation.ch www.michibase.ch

My parents are not so happy that I started to BASE jump. Every time I speak with my mother she tells me not to do any jumps. My brothers and friends think that I'm a psycho to do BASE Jumping and they also tell me I should not do it. My wife witnessed a horrible accident the first time she saw BASE jumping in live. She also does not like it but she already knew she can not change me when she married me... so she lets me jump... Michi (#1068) hsbc/gba/sba www.swissbaseassociation.ch www.michibase.ch

I'm also a HVAC Engineer and I work for a big swiss company in Mexico. The company I work in is for sale since this week, so I ask you if you need a HVAC Engineer... :-) Michi (#1068) hsbc/gba/sba www.swissbaseassociation.ch www.michibase.ch

Best coffee (espresso) makes my Italian mother in law! She has her own recipe for the mixture. I also love the coffee houses in Vienna and in Buenas Aires! For me almost more important then a good coffee is the ambient where you drink it. That is why I would never, ever drink a coffee in Starbucks or any coffee chain!!! That's how many of us snobistic Europeans think... Michi (#1068) hsbc/gba/sba www.swissbaseassociation.ch www.michibase.ch

By the way, I learned how to pack my PC from Gabo...

This video only shows what myself and a few others believe is not a good way of packing a pilotchute for base jumping. It does not show how to do a good one. I don't believe that somebody with my level of experience should present himself online showing how to do a mushroom or super-mushroom.Quote Thank you for posting the video. I pack my PC the same way! Can someone with more experience post a video how to pack a mushroom (not a supermushroom) the way it's suposed to open better? And also it would be very interessting to know who packs the way Jaap showed in his video ans who uses other methods. Michi (#1068) hsbc/gba/sba www.swissbaseassociation.ch www.michibase.ch

Wow, strong words... But Mexicans are very friendly people and that is why your are always welcome here if you want to do some nice BASE Jumping. Check out www.mexbase.com or contact Jay for one of his Boogies in this 3 world country... Michi (#1068) hsbc/gba/sba www.swissbaseassociation.ch www.michibase.ch

Quote And quit packing your self line twist and off heading openings. Couldn't believe I was reading that, I would suppose practice, yea but. NO. Quote If you BASE jump, you will eventually (or almost certainly) be in both situations. And if you are in this situation, you will feel much better and more secure if it is not for the first time und you have practiced what to do before. And there is no better place to do this then a span because there is only a minimal chance of a wall strike. Therefore he is very safe practicing this!

How can I watch a .mp4 file? Michi (#1068) hsbc/gba/sba www.swissbaseassociation.ch www.michibase.ch

I vote yes. I agree what Wendy says: _________________ Had it worked it would have been a BASE jump. _________________ If this would have been his second BASE Jump, he would have been on the second list. But as he was not yet a BASE Jumper, he can not be on the second list. He died trying to do a BASE Jump. To get to the exit point he did a Skydive but the Skydive was only a part of the preparation. Michi (#1068) hsbc/gba/sba www.swissbaseassociation.ch www.michibase.ch

I thought so as well until I saw the poll (http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=1531355;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;forum_view=forum_view_collapsed;guest=11369703) on the Bonfire... Michi (#1068) hsbc/gba/sba www.swissbaseassociation.ch www.michibase.ch

No, I would never make another Skydive again! Skydiving is fun but I would not die for it. I know that I could die but the reason that I'm still doing it is because I very much hope that I don't die. I am extremely surprised that more people voted that they would continue even if the know that they will die doing it. I also BASE jump but even there, I would not make another jump if I knew that I'm going to die doing it. I accept the fact that I could die but I keep jumping because I also know that I have a big chance surviving this sport. Michi (#1068) hsbc/gba/sba www.swissbaseassociation.ch www.michibase.ch

Respect to this guy!! He has a lot of nerves!! He knows that you are a Skydiver and still tries to impress you by telling bull shit stories that no one would believe. Imagine, if he tries to impress girls by telling stories like this maybe 5 times a day and every 20 times a girl falls for it, he gets lucky every 4 days!!! Not bad!!!

I don’t know Tom but according to this (scroll down to post of Tom...) post, he’s spending a lot of time loosing weight… :-) Edit to say: Shit, clicky does not work but here is the link... http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=1434450;search_string=weight;#1434450 Second edit: OK, now it works...

Not wanting to be an ass to ask, but did you upsize or stop doing 180s after your incident? Michi (#1068) hsbc/gba/sba www.swissbaseassociation.ch www.michibase.ch

It looks like he's doing a backflip according to his head position... Michi (#1068) hsbc/gba/sba www.swissbaseassociation.ch www.michibase.ch
