quade 4 #2 February 27, 2009 The article doesn't make any sense. "We challenge you to find a less green sport than this." That's a quote from their #7.

CSpenceFLY 1 #4 February 27, 2009 Stupid Fuckers. I hate fucking tree huggers. What about all the gas being burned while all the fucking "Green" people are driving to their favorite hiking spot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andrewwhyte 1 #5 February 27, 2009 They forgot suntanning. Think about how much fossil fuel gets used up moving people around to resorts to lie on the beach. More than soccer, I'll bet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hausse 0 #8 February 27, 2009 Well quite honestly it really is bad for the environment (altough I don't agree it to be the worst of that list)... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cocheese 0 #9 February 27, 2009 one safety meeting alone can cause more pollution than.....a tree hugger can shake a stick at (as my grandma would say) Then there is the giant bonfires at the dz where we burn trees and hug. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riddler 0 #10 February 27, 2009 Idea for an environmentally-friendly dropzone: Solar-electric dirigibles, large enough for 4-6 jumpers, two or three per dropzone. Every jump would be like a balloon jump, and no hill (think of how fun it would be trying to chunk a group-exit with zero airspeed). And if it's too windy to fly the aircraft, well, we shouldn't be jumping anyway Of course, just ask the owners of Perris about trying to get the Jet signed off by the FAA - imagine how long it would take to get this sanctioned by the FAA. Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
popsjumper 2 #11 February 27, 2009 They are talking about sports, people...competitive sports. I can't recall ever seeing competition hiking or tanning as yet. Although pro tanning does strike a bell somehow. Garry Trudeau, was it??? My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

airathanas 0 #14 February 27, 2009 Lemme get this right - so ANYTHING that involves people driving or flying to get to someplace that involves sports makes that sport bad for the environment? That's every sport. Maybe we should just stand still from now on or Mother Earth will bitch-slap us http://3ringnecklace.com/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
