  1. First, congrats to all winners - good selection, but personally I would switch 1st and 2nd place... My favourite is the one with Robert doing the "barrel" ... Wish you all a "jumpy" weekend ! Xenia
  2. I can knit - might not add up to performance, but would look cool and fashionable!
  3. I totally agree with you. Everyone apply and manifest what they know best... it is not necessarily designing a new wingsuit...
  4. I made my first Prodigy base jump this weekend and my suit has no loop in the back (I got it last month). I have loop on the left side of the jacket...so I guess this means that newer models have taken into consideration what can happen if people don't tuck their jacket into the pants (I saw it on my friend's suit - he is very sloppy!)...And I think this is also primarily causing most of the accidents - people using suits at their "best knowledge", not asking the right people what is right or not...
  5. I have another one (my exit with prodigy from a hot air balloon)...
  6. Lika, you really rock (I already liked your previous work)! S nailutshimi pozhelaniami iz Slovenii ...
  7. Great job, Jamesy! As usual P.S. will you also film me when (if) I jump my prodigy off ITW???
  8. Great editing job! I already loved your Norway clip "puzzle" - you might ask Mr. Kraus to employ you Anyway, the most beautiful part of the video is Winnie in her white V-1, with birdy on her buttie .
  9. Great video! In Lysebotn the "locals" were showing us great movie compilation, including also jumps from the wall seen in the video - they made it in smoke pants. But the "norgies" are book for themselves anyway!
  10. 44 jumps, 10 objects (3S, 1B, 6E), none opened by my-self (no brag...I'm only a base-baby) and my favourites are "E"s!
  11. Beautiful... I think your liked it a lot!
  12. Khmm, you're right ... sorry for this - yes, slider down (you know us women - always want to have things up )
  13. I made my first terminal jump from ITTW. Would be the whole different situation if I'd went there alone (zero experiences in wind, landing options...), but I had bunch of experience jumpers behind my back and now I have 14 jumps off it. I'd suggest that you write when you'll be there and ask if there are any of the more experienced guys there at the time to PM you... Unclecharlie is almost cooked and fried there every free weekend ... Ups, did I say sth wrong? FYI: Before my first jumps from this great wall, I had 8 slider-up jumps from S in Croatia...
  14. I know! This is actually my "hidden agenda" ... Will do some more jumps out of flying objects and hope to try it soon from the terminal wall in Italy
  15. I agree with you...Prodigy is for "clostrophobics"! That's why I fly one . I was interested in WS flying from the beginning but obviously lacking those two dangling things between my legs . And ever since I tried this zipper free (phobic-free) suit, I'm in love !!! And starting (to think about) to work out my poor muscular upper part in order to be able to try and maybe even fly a "real" wingsuit one day! But as you guys are more tough, you'll probably aim into the area of GTi or Phantom. I suggest that before the purchase you try them both out! There's a lot of demos out there (also from the Phantom I think), so you can decide based on the feeling and not the opinion of others (trying only one suit)... Wish you all long and safe flights...from the "all-kinds-of-phobic" chick!
  16. Pete, very very nice!!! P.S. Despite your "thong" invention on your pantz you're cool guy
  17. Contact Vibeke and Stein. Stavanger BASE Klubb rents all gear there (http://www.basekjerag.com). 200 NOK for a canopy, additional 200 NOK (400 NOK together) for packing. Enjoy the staying in Norway!
  18. It's normal reaction when our spleen is "overloaded". It happens in stressful situation or when we're exhausted - when our heart beat ratio is above what we're used to! Some people smell blood and some taste it in the mouth. It's not a nice feeling, but goes away quickly. With you probably right after your canopy opens ! Kiki

    Base and Parents

    I don't think my parents have a visual of what BASE means and that is probably the reason they don't worry to much (what I can't say about my husband)... My granny is the greatest! Her philosophy is: I'm so much more comfortable with you jumping of "things", since this is much lower that when jumping of the airplane and you have much less possibility to get hurt ... She is almost 80, so I don't bother to oppose her great thinking!
  20. Lika, I got the same present last year ...made me happier than any diamond would! I'm looking forward to meet you at some terminal wall (e.g. Italy or Norway) - I'm sure will have enough material to talk over!
  21. And behind every successful man there is a woman...like Kathy ! Thanks to both of them for making my PRECIOUS (Gargoyle)!
  22. DARKO!!! I guess you'll have some explaining to do...to my husband...and my lover...and my cat P.S. you're in none of above categories
  23. QuotePS Don´t you know about the rule of not naming BASE sites without a legal status in public?...one more spank for your ass...Quote Hmm, did you ever learn geography, 2pac? River Tara is 144km long - so I think if you call this site naming... And the reason I didn't mention that he can contact Croatian jumpers is only a small historical fact, that I might consider to be a problem...but as already Robibird proved - luckily is not! P.S. if you wanna spank my ass - get in the line boy!
