Everon 0 #6 September 8, 2005 Now - as anyone can see by my jump number I'm very inexperienced, but didn't the girl who pulled first in this B.A.S.E. jump pull too early? Shouldn't the ones who jump ahead of the pack pull the latest so this doesn't happen? On the lighter side, I have to find funny the dialogue of those on the bridge. "She has line twists." "I wonder why." "She's twisted." Edit: By the way (experienced ones) am I correct in concluding that the "collision couple" had B.A.S.E. gear, but the other guy had skydiving gear?

hobbes4star 0 #7 September 8, 2005 it looks like the guy went to steep and fell into the path of the girl.if fun were easy it wouldn't be worth having, right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlyingTed 0 #8 September 8, 2005 The girl went handheld and the other two guys went stowed. So, the plan was that she opens first. The guy on the left had exit problems and was not stable -> crash. Take care. #1094 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Everon 0 #9 September 8, 2005 Okay, I see now.... Thanks! Could you tell me if they all had B.A.S.E. gear? The guy on the right seems to have skydiving gear (????) based on the the slower opening (?) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, there was some skydiving gear involved, but it was modified for BASE. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
