I just got back from Belize and had a bad ass time. I found a Belizian Pilot that will fly jumpers. I have his contact info if anyone is interested. I just read the post on the Boogie in Belize. I will be there for that. We charted a plane and flew over Guatemala and western Belize to see some of the Mayan ruins. We flew in a very nice C-172. I think it was an early 80's model in very good shape. The pilot told me he flew jumpers before and to bring my rig next time. I figured it would work out like that. I brought my rig last time and could not find a pilot. I left my rig at home this time and found a pilot. I have all his contact info if anyone is interested. Who else is going to the Boogie in Belize? You dont't get to choose how you're going to die. Or when.......You can only decide how you're going to live........NOW. -BASE 1605 Night BASE 227

I just got back from San Pedro Tuesday. I have tried to hook up jumps down there before with no luck. Hey IMGR2, where is your dads place on the island? My inlaws have a place on the South end of Ambrigis Caye. I just spent 8 days down there. I cant wait for the boogie. Every time I fly Tropic or Maya air I look at their pretty Caravans wishing I was hanging out the door getting ready to exit. You dont't get to choose how you're going to die.

Balloon jumps are fun. What kind of altitude did you get? The last time I did one the pilot gave us 5 grand. I was surprised. You dont't get to choose how you're going to die. Or when.......You can only decide how you're going to live........NOW. -BASE 1605 Night BASE 227

We went out last weekend on one of Capitan Elliotts boats in Freeport. We went out 65 miles and had a great time. I was a little hung over from the night before. On the way out I got a little woozy, so at 0530 I popped the top on my first Bud Light of the day. After the first beer I felt like a million bucks. I caught fish and drank beer all day long and felt great. I finished my last beer that night at 10:30 before I went to bed. My biggest fish was 38lb Amberjack. What a fight it was. All in all a great day at sea. ARRRRRRRRRRR.. (Pirates voice) You dont't get to choose how you're going to die.

Thanks for all the good info guys. I will most likely leave my rig here. The only way I was going to take it to Belize is if I could hook something up over DZ.com. It was kind of a pain in the ass taking it down there last time. I was worried someone would steal it or mess it up when i was not around. This trip will be just scuba diving and snorkeling. I was still entertaining the idea of heading north up to Playa Del Carmen for a jump or two. I jumped there back in 02. It was a really fun jump landing on the beach. Thanks again for all the info.

I have a 330 and love it. Hey EricTheRed, how do you capture footage from tape to memory stick? Are you taking about footage off a memory stick? You dont't get to choose how you're going to die. Or when.......You can only decide how you're going to live........NOW. -BASE 1605 Night BASE 227

Thanks for the tip....I think its a good rule of thumb to give yourself 24 hours before making a skydive. Last time I jumped in Mexico I gave myself 24 hours and had no problems.

I pack my brand new Sabre 2 with the reverse S fold like mentioned above. It makes it a lot easier to get into the bag. I do it every time now because thats what works for me.

Thanks for the info but this will be my second trip down there. I know about all the beautiful diving Belize has to offer. I plan on making a shit load of dives but I will be there for 8 days. Thats plenty of time to throw a skydive into the mix. I posted about belize last year and got some responses from someone who new some pilots down there. Just though I would try it again. I almost had the tropic air pilot convinced to let me make a jump. He though I was BS-ing him until I started taking my rig out of the bag. If I cant set something up before hand, I will just leave my rig at home. You dont't get to choose how you're going to die.

I will be in Belize the first week in September and was looking for info on places to jump. I tried to jump there back in November but the weather was bad. Does anyone have connections with pilots down there? Any info would be appreciated. You dont't get to choose how you're going to die.

That is a very cool website. The link at the top is cool also. Is about abandon airfields. There was one right down the street from my house and did not even know it. Also found the old metro airport on hwy 3. There is a lot of history behind the abandon airfields. Thanks for sharing. You dont't get to choose how you're going to die.

I have been lurking the BASE forum for sometime. I would love to find a mentor and try it someday. I made my first (BEER) balloon jump this past weekend. I got a little taste of what BASE is all about. It was truly the best jump I have made to date. The dead still air exit is amazing. I have really enjoyed reading your diary. In the beginning you said you were not a writer. As I read your diary I felt as if I were right there at your side. I will continue to lurk this forum and learn all I can about BASE.

You chicks are hot in those suits.......I love looking at old skydiving pics. Do you have anymore of the Old Spaceland? Aerial shots of the DZ???I am sure camera flying was not very popular in 1980. I did not think video camera's were even out in 1980. I really enjoyed that...... You dont't get to choose how you're going to die.

Nice Bikes........I rode a 99 blue R-1 that I sold about a year ago. I miss riding. I miss riding through the hills and dragging a knee or two. Especially in the fall when the weather cools down.
