  1. Hi clif.. ...man this sure is a great time see you later jt
  2. Whats a matter Tom Aiello? cant even post a simple guess in the sake of fun? I noticed that you didnt even show your face or any help in Miles' world record... you tout yourself as being an involved leader type but you didnt even participate in Twin Falls' most notable base jumping session in history, not a pack job or a hike out or an interview.
  3. UMM... yeah i will take 562. a hell of a year and about a hundy more than he did this year. Clif... you are copying jimmy H, by giving away gear for a contest, except your item is worth much less than a fox tarp, maybe a more suitable dorkzone name for you would be clifhuckenstien. miles has a life time pass to my bridge (a site named the IB perrine memorial bridge in Twin falls idaho AKA "jt's bridge") he is truly keen and able STOP HATING!!
  4. Miles did flips every single jump for 57 jumps... mostly doubles, a few singles and a ton of triples... almost entirely slider down. his rotations completed would have been way more than 100... there was a guy recording all that info on all the jumps... can we get this info posted? Tal? Clif? I'd like to read all the stats on Gary and Miles world record sessions. the details were recorded of all of miles' jumps and even openings and there was only one jump where he earned himself a couple line twists after a triple gainer, other than that he just threw out on headers all day. that one guy is totally right...nobody can Wooooo hooo like miles Daisher. nobody can jump off of my bridge 57 times in a row doing slider down technical arials the whole time... he was doing Kiss Ass Blasters (twisting triple) after like 45 jumps. that is just unmatchable. I am guessing that in 120 jumps this Gary guy is gonna have some pretty interesting stats as well. any charities involved with this one?

    no dip shit. it is APOOPA just like the man said. Americans Parachuting From Off Of Objects With Skis And Parachutes And during the Daytime with cameras and Stuff I am getting a bunch of PM's about this and I dont know anything more than what is posted... but it sounds like we are gonna bemore than your whopping 10. as of now it sounds like: VID666 CLIFHUCKSTABLE JT HOLMESJR MARCIA RODEOBASE420 AARONHUGE FALLLINESKIER HugheJRection [email protected] JorgenAFallwell LARSLyngenberg [email protected] FREELANDER RJGILL RONYANKLE BLUESKIESANDRAINBOWS (let's hope he doesnt show!!) and then i guess miles D ' please re direct PM's to one of these other guys my question: is there gonna be NO FALL zones like in extreme skiing contests? or maybe, NO IMPACT zones like you know the wall, or trees and stuff. no fall zones were cool because it made it so that if you were a reckless skier that was lucky to make it down the run alive, then you had no chance of winning. with a no impact zone... even if you had the fastest time and the most flips and the best style, but your run resulted in a wall strike, then you have no chance of winning, even if it was pretty damn cool what you did. the AAPOOPA is likely no joke at all... Shane McConkey once started a sanctioning body called the IFSA... stood for something like...Is Freebasing Seriously Addictive, or maybe it was something else...whatever who cares...

    what up there is a guy named jesse hall lives in gunnison i think. are you guys related? lemme know if you have trouble finding him, he is my homey and I know his contact info. there is gonna be an AAPUPA ski base contest this year in south lake tahoe califonia. you should come on out for it. jt
  7. assuming the wall is sheer here are my guesses for running and having a really good tracking pant jump How far could he get away from the mountain (remembering he is doing a running launch) at 100ft 40ft away 200ft 65ft away 300ft 75ft 400ft 85ft 500ft 100ft 600ft 150ft 700ft 200ft 800ft 250ft 900ft 1000ft 1100ft 1200ft 1300ft 1400ft 1500ft 1600t 700ft 1700ft 1800ft 1000ft total guesses.. but fun to think about.
  8. I know that airwalk poster. My friend mark has it hanging in his room. he got it at a shoe store back in 92... at the very earliest 1990. i dunno where to buy base posters but mark I think Mark has his priced at $1000.
  9. didnt see that..looked like a last week thing to me and that you were venting because that tower thingy ended up on the news. oh well, stil worth stating some facts to show JR´s side of things, as I have been on the opposite side of internet lashings and it isnt the best feeling in the world and usually the facts are all way offf. but i guess 2 years ago his canopies might have been cleaner
  10. packing posts...whats wrong with them? why am I an ex ski baser?
  11. [ The first jumper fought the wind a bit, and pretty much floated straight down, landing just in front of the guy wires. The second jumper had a 90 degree off-heading, and as he struggled to turn his canopy, he was blown between the guy wires of the tower. what do you mean? dont we always jump between the wires on antennas? did the guy go through the wires and into the other side or not? if so, did he land over there or did he come back through again and land in the same side as he had jumped from? A bit of our dialogue: WHat the hell is a"sector"? if you speak in code tom, many perfect strangers will not understand you. *** ME: And most people try to pull a bit lower--that way the wind is weaker, and doesn't effect your opening that much. ME: Hey, do you guys want to go and grab some breakfast with us? Maybe talk about this a bit? So, I get home, make a few phone calls and figure out who the jumpers were. I am informed, quite curtly, that they were perfectly safe, and I ought to mind my own business. Oh, well. I guess I'll go quietly mind my business, then. tattle tailing to all your computer oriented friends is not minding your own business. my 2 cents: as a jumper in the area at the time, I know that the winds were cold, gusty and shifty. THere was even another jumper the same week that actually had a wire strike that may have been as a result of these unusual wind conditions. a mistake may have been made in which side to jump, but as a forgiving object will tend to, it forgave. it could have been an honest mistake, the winds may have been different at exit alt. than opening alt. misleading the beginner jumpers Here are the facts: two beginner jumpers were jumping a beginner object at night. the winds may have been an issue, but both managed to land safely. no harm no foul.
  12. but, 10 minutes? really, only ten from un packed in a stuff sack to packed and PC stowed?
  13. $20 gets your rig packed where I come from. 200 Kroner will get you one in Norway thats about $30 both are perfect ram air oriented pack jobs that rarely take much less than 30 min... but who is counting I have never seen a 10 minute base pack job that isn´t foolishly rushed I have paid for about 25 base pack jobs, I have been paid to pack before too. In general paying others to pack you up is rare, but jumping other peoples pack jobs is common among people who know what they are doing even at $20 per pack job, you would not bother to pay that to someone that you do not trust skydiving is great, I mean how can you pass on a $5 pack job? that just seems like a steal to me. jt
  14. Hey Jaap the general style in ski base these days is to ski off of a cliff that is at least around 200 feet tall and either open yer chute imediately, or do a flip or two and then toss yer chute. we have been waiting for a snowboarder(s) to come and play with us and have fun off of our local 350 footer, but no one ever shows up. that is where CLIFHUCKSTABLE has been doing quad flips and kiss ass blasters (twisting triples) seems to me that the snowboard would be just as fun and safe, but I do not know how to hit jumps on a board very consistently at all yet. why not just go for it our style? this will save the pain in the ass and the money to get a new binding set up, one that you will be lucky to ever retrieve after you go ski off of a huge cliff, and let yer whole set up fall to impact. if you are worried about it, just put a big PC in yer hand and go fast and throw quick and with all that forward speed yer canopy is gonna open so fast that it will be hard for you to manage to get your feet and board tangled up in it. skiers do it mono boarders have done it when are some of you snowboarders gonna give it a go? ....were waiting... edit for site name ~TA
