andy2 0 #1 December 11, 2003 I was wondering if anyone had any BASE packing videos they didn't need anymore that they'd be willing to ship to me for a supplement (obviously) to being shown how to pack a BASE rig by an experienced person. I find I'm not too unusual in that the more sources of information I tap the better I understand something like BASE packing. I don't know how well this will work but after I view the video I'd be more than happy to send it to someone else (granted they are getting instruction from an experienced BASE jumper as their first and foremost source of information). If you have a BASE packing video that you'd be willing to part with or even dub you could email me at: andy@nc.rr.com See Ya! *edit - sorry I didn't add that I will reimburse you for any of your troubles getting the video to me! --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm...

Treejumps 0 #2 December 11, 2003 CR and Vertigo both have a great video. If you have only 116 skydives, I think that you should not bother with the videos. Jump more and find someone to teach you. At 116 jumps you're probably just getting your skydive pack job down to under 20 minutes, Don't rush things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hookitt 1 #3 December 11, 2003 Andy, go to http://crmojo.com/frame_main.htm Click on: Library Click on: Go to the Document library. Then down load the ra_manual_online.pdf Ram -Air Parachute Owner's Manual It's pretty good. The video they have is outdated. Functional but outdated. I haven't seen BR's video so I can't comment. Good luck.My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomAiello 26 #4 December 11, 2003 BR's video is several years out of date (i.e. pre-tailgate). There is some discussion of it at the end of this thread.-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mischo 0 #5 December 11, 2003 Dude there are lots of cats that BASE @ your home DZ. Including the fella that runs the joint. I am sure they cant wait to welcome you into the fold. Probably wouldnt mind showing you how to pack as well. See you in a few months Mish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andy2 0 #6 December 12, 2003 definitely! Maybe I didn't make myself as clear as I wanted but I am not asking for a video so I can teach myself how to pack a BASE rig. I just wanted it to supplement my learning. I want to learn it and feel very comfortable with it before I take my pack job over the edge. I just don't want to spend 40 dollars on a video I'll watch a couple times then never again. I figured there were other people like me that's why I offered up the idea to get these videos in circulation a little. No biggie! I'd probably buy a packing video if any of them were up to date. --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm...
