  3. I think the multi-plane big ways are the most unique aspect of z-flock, so a extra load to try for a big diamond would be nice
  4. I'll let you have a go at Z-flock ok. But just one go, because I want it for back flying

  10. Thanks for the heads up Matt. I just read about the HC3 on the site Henny posted http://www.dvinfo.net/conf/forumdisplay.php?f=99&order=desc I shall wait! BASEstore.it
  11. I am looking at getting a HD camera, are there any other cameras I should consider other than the Sony HDR-HC1 or HVR-A1U? BASEstore.it
  12. Thought I'd share an ickle story... The Mucho BASE team were returning from some "plane" training this weekend and stopped to make a flick on the way home. The object is right next to a restaurant and we know the owner well. As usual the owner came out to watch and set up an accuracy pad in the LZ. Telling us if we hit the X we win a bottle of wine. Jammy was off first and just missed the X, still at the exit we heard the owner call out "NIENTE!" (Italian for nothing) I was off next and overshot. Gloria was last but was also a couple of metres off target. The owner said as we had showed "effort and determination" we could still have the wine. We fired the cork in the LZ and made a toast to Raleigh Collins. J BASEstore.it
  13. Patience... it will take us a while to do the judging and then prepare webpage. BASEstore.it
  14. Sad sad news. Raleigh was an awesome guy. Always a smile and full of great stories... I met Raleigh at the ITW a few years ago, he returned each summer for climbing and jumping. Fly forever free Raleigh. BASEstore.it
  15. The numerical value of your BASE number has little meaning. The fact you demonstrated a combination of skills to jump all four objects is what matters. No person emerges from that journey without a refreshed outlook on life. I got my BASE number because I see it as a valuable tradition and a way of paying respect to the pioneers of this sport.

  18. Thanks to everyone who attended the event and a special thank you to Vincenzo and Skydive Marche for being such fun hosts
  19. IMO, palm down against the leg. Reach back with hand wide open, locate, grasp and then pitch. Quick peak to make sure it has gone (stay square) and turn back for line stretch. Plane practice strongly recommended before fixed object use. If it is a while since i used the pouch i like to pinch /punch myself where the PC handle sits, giving me a "physical" reference where the handle is. J BASEstore.it
