"SUNDAYSUNDAY!!!!! LIVELIVE!!!!!!...." not quite so monster truck or bizarre, but there has been some pretty good development in the field of downhill wheelchair racing, as a wheelchair equivalent of downhillmountainbike racing... might be worth looking into for this sort of application, here's a link: http://newmobility.com/review_article.cfm?id=165&action=browse cya sam soon to be gone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cesslon 0 #61 September 11, 2005 Awesome video, this is the second jump of Russ's jumps that I've seen, one of his other jumps is in 1 of the ABA DVD's but this 1 is by far the best of the 2. how was the chute on the chair deployed ? also who is holding his pilot chute, is it someone from this forum ? always good to put faces to names Share this post Link to post Share on other sites lifewithoutanet 0 #62 September 12, 2005 Quoteone of his other jumps is in 1 of the ABA DVD's but this 1 is by far the best of the 2. There is? Which vid? Quotehow was the chute on the chair deployed ? Russel sat on a d-bag containing a 50 sq ft round (used for recovery of big-ass model rockets) it was attached to the chair by 1/4 inch tubular webbing, and clipped to another piece of webbing between his leg straps. Gravity did the rest. Quotealso who is holding his pilot chute, is it someone from this forum ? Yours truly. -C.

At any rate, I've got a still photo of Jason F. helping lift Russel over the rail, so I'm pretty sure that's how the footage got to Oz.-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites TomAiello 26 #65 September 12, 2005 Quote...Gravity did the rest...
