TOT 0 #1 July 20, 2005 I did my first Brid-Man jump last Wednesday and the next 14 jumps were all wingsuit jumps. I was always told to never try one until I had $1000 saved up to buy one and I wish I had waited. Everything I own is for sale now. TOT Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dmkellett 0 #2 July 21, 2005 nice. i too suffer the severe form of addiction you describe. i think i need help. do you know where WS addicts can get counselling? I was recently told by a very close friend that i was not her mothers favourite person due to my pushing crack onto her son. What worries me is he seems to be accelerating into a twisted spiral of descent. He just blew his savings for a round the world trip with his new GF on a new rig and WS. I may have underestimated the dose i administered when i let him try my Phoenix fly tracking suit and we flew a simulated BM pattern. His travel plans were re-evaluated upon his safe landing within minutes. In front of his (non-jumping) but supportive new GF. Having recently retired from poisoning myself with tobacco, i thought i understood how to beat addiction but again i feel i may have underestimated severly. help Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tr027 0 #3 July 21, 2005 Yea, it's as addicting a discipline as skydiving is as a sport. When I first started jumping and reading about WS, I saw the prices of suits and thought "no way man, that can't be nearly worth that much money". Months later when I got enough experience and started WS, I somehow quickly found the money for a new suit. I just hope I can retain some marginal level of control over it."The evil of the world is made possible by nothing but the sanction you give it.
