  1. The Seattle BASE crew will be there in force, should have about 10 or 15 people coming down starting on Wednesday with the rest of the crew showing up by Saturday. Looking forward to seeing everyone there for another great weekend at the Bridge. Most of us are staying at the Holiday Inn.
  2. Just to set the record straight. We all have unique situations in this sport, some more unique then others. I very well believe that this jumper had this experience, all of our bodies are different and react to different situations. My point was not to state that this person didn't have this situation but rather to make a joke out of all the replies on this web site, a lot of the time they are so out in left field that it is comical. I am very happy that this jumper landed safely without any mishaps or injuries and hope that she never has this happen to her again.
  3. I don't know how many people I have talked to about this but everyone seems to agree(including the people on her load)that this jumper did not pass out under canopy. Rather she took a bad spot on a cross country and landed out. Seems very, very fishy that she would come around at 25 to 50 feet above the ground with just enough time to flare.
