  2. Maybe he should ask in the rigging forum if they think its a good idea to pack your only parachute in a grass field. Or a small hotel room. Maybe he should ask in the rigging forum if jumping your only parachute unpacked is a good idea. Maybe he should ask in the rigging area if jumping off a B is a good idea. Maybe he should ask in the rigging forum if fliking the Potato in the morning without notifying the sherrif is a good idea. Maybe he should ask in the rigging forum if jumping a single parachute system is a good idea period. And lastly, didn't he say he packed on tarps, thereby negating whatever dust might have been laying around? Get in - Get off - Get away....repeat as neccessary

    FL locals.

    When I first started skydiving at Perris JP was cool and sent me a PM to look him up anytime I was at the DZ...had a couple of tunnel sessions with him as well. He also offered me a certificate he had for a discount on a PD reserve. Not that any of that means shit BASE jumping, but it shows the kind of person he is. Some local in FL should hook him up or he should dayblaze your objects just to give you the middle finger. Get in - Get off - Get away....repeat as neccessary
  6. JAT stewardess Vesna Vulović survived a fall of over 10,000 meters on January 26, 1972 when she was thrown from JAT Flight 364 by an terrorist bomb. She broke several bones and was in a coma for 27 days. In World War II there were several reports of aircrew surviving long falls; Nick Alkemade, Alan Magee, and I.M. Chisov all fell at least 6,000 meters and survived. Get in - Get off - Get away....repeat as neccessary
  7. If one is going for purity then one should swim to Norway after walking to the ocean. Walk up from the Campsite and swim 4km back from the landing area doncha think? Take care, space Hahahaha Get in - Get off - Get away....repeat as neccessary
  8. Did someone really get in 11 fliks in a day? Or are you be facetious? I was wondering what the average number of jumps per day per participant is? Limited by helo volume or wallet size? Get in - Get off - Get away....repeat as neccessary
  9. Yes, all the charts vary. Notice Tom does NOT recommend stowing a 46, yet this is common practice in some circles... Get in - Get off - Get away....repeat as neccessary

  13. Shannon and Brians deaths were BIG time national news. That guy getting hung up on the guy wires in Nor Cal was BIG time national news. Jeb's arrest was BIG time national news. Maybe it's about time for something positive from the BASE community to make BIG time national news... People have been driven by the premise that ANY publicity is bad for BASE...thus ensuring that ONLY NEGATIVE publicity reaches the general population.

  14. The vertical support column of a hammerhead/T top/whatever you want to call it construction crane is made up of segments. They appear to me to be about 20' or 6 meters. Is this pretty standard? Has anyone ever measured one? Get in - Get off - Get away....repeat as neccessary

  18. I could give a fuck what anyone else thinks, I hope in 9 years I've made 600 jumps and kept myself injury free... Not only is he aREAL BASE jumper, but he is also obviously a REAL SMART BASE jumper...which I believe to be preferable to the first. Kurt Get in - Get off - Get away....repeat as neccessary

  25. Bunch of wanna be Steven Hawkings around here. Why don't you guys argue if information is lost upon the demise of a black hole or something while you're at it. All you need to know about physics is if you hit the ground (or water) hard, it's going to ruin your day. Later Get in - Get off - Get away....repeat as neccessary
