packertom 0 #1 June 13, 2006 for those who care, Lee Hardesty is back in Dallas... he survived his solo Baffin trip... again... third one. Anyway, he said that that weather was god awful and he spent a lot of time in a tent snowed in, he got a few jumps and busted some more cherries in the Arctic... I believe he has probably opened more sites on Baffin than anyone else in the community. he said specifically he jumped the helmet this time, he'd been planning it for around 6 years. he told me he has some amazing video of a jump where the launch point crumbled and he fell off and was the most scared he'd ever been in his life... then on landing the ground winds had picked up to around 70 mph! he says he has some pretty humorous footage of him being drug for quite a ways... L-bars on his alpine rig... anyway, I'm sure that once he decompresses, we'll work something up with the video and get it out to the masses... he did some preliminary planning with a inuit local guide on trying to set up future planned trips with paying guests... I'm sure that he'll keep all informed as that progresses... Tomtom@velocitysportswear.com www.velocitysportswear.com What's YOUR Zombie Plan? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
