MichaelBess 0 #3 January 1, 2004 That would depend on if you were looking for a Hollywodd type production (Dropzone, Terminal Velocity, Point Break), or a skydiving video like the Lost Prairie 2003 video? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrJones 0 #4 January 1, 2004 Looking for more insider flicks on the sport. Where would I go to find lost prairie 03 and any others like it? NUR ZUM SPASS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blahr 0 #5 January 1, 2004 Point Break Cutaway Drop Zone Terminal Velocity all these movies stink from a "good movie" perspective but all have some good jumps Cutaway has the most and best skydiving sequences. Point Break is the most unrealistic and rediculous Dropzone is probably the best from a "decent plot and acting" perspective. Terminal Velocity is amusing Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MichaelBess 0 #6 January 1, 2004 As for the LP 03 tape you would go to http://www.skydivelostprairie.com, print the order form, and mail it to me If there were others you were looking for specifically, I use Google a lot. If you were looking for the Rantoul or Quincy video, do a search on "freefall convention video" and most years come up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MichaelBess 0 #7 January 2, 2004 Quoteall these movies stink from a "good movie" perspective but all have some good jumps I agree with you with one exception. Look for what they did for our sport. After the movie Point Break came out for example, DZs across the planet were packed with potential new jumpers. They do have their place, besides "we" watched them...

mailin 0 #8 January 2, 2004 www.skydivingmovies.com Seems to be down or something now - but its a great site for amateaur video and video from TV specials. I'm not kidding when I tell you I've downloaded every single movie and saved them on my computer. I watch them for my fix when I get OC (obsessive compulsive) about skydiving - which seems to be often lately. JenniferArianna Frances Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
