And Andrew.. look.. you're pretty much cincy crew :-P Jimmy.. you look... well.. slightly impared! edited to add: i dont' think that photo really shows my muscular physique. ether.. i'm really muscular.. don't worry!

Yes.. we are twins. Kind of ironic, since we both BASE, but oh well. Here's a pic of TJ & I. I'm obviously the better looking one(left)... by far.. right? :-P Nathan

Awesome story. See. it's always nice to mix in a little bit of story telling here and there - in between all of the non-sense on dz.com :-). wait wait... the mac in me is coming out DON'T YOU HAVE HIS PHONE NUMBER? CAN'T YOU CALL HIM? GEEEEZ PEOPLE I'm waiting for video! Nathan

I kind of like reading it actually. It shows the spirit of BASE, and also gives me some entertainment. :-) Nathan

brett... it was

Yep. It was fun. The quote of the two months was definitely ... "Cinci crew is just a state of mind" hahaha. Don't forget about: - snow jumps! - you deciding not to jump, ground crewing for me, then rushing up the A as soon as i land! - ZP!! .. and sadly.. the graph that i still don't get 100%. - you're first slider up A .. 900' in 15 degrees with 20mph winds at exit .. and the other jumper waiting patiently freezing his ass off :-P - the look on TJ's face when you were doing your first HH - naming doggie style. enough said. haha come back. Nathan

I don't really think you could control rig distribution, and I don't really know why you would. Sure, you don't want idiots getting their hands on a BASE rig, but as wwarped said, some will revert to using a skydiving rig. And with the amount of jumpers, *someone* will sell them a rig. If you wouldn't sell me a rig, i would just go the next. Sooner or later i'll get my hands on one if I really want one. Within about 5 minutes of searching forums or talking to people (assuming you know nothing about BASE) you can find out that ravens were once considered an awesome BASE canopy. If you try and cough up the $1500 for a new canopy, but no one will sell you one, ravens are cheap as hell, and pretty easy to get a hold of. Idiots will come and go, as with anything else. I think it's hopeless trying to protect people from themselves (especially with the amount of upcoming jumpers). If someone is stupid enough to come upon a BASE rig and go use it.. well... hopefully there's good video. Nathan -
*drools* Nathan

No, I don't. What type of readings have you found, and on what types of A's? I wouldn't buy one. I'm not really all that concerned with it. I would be curious as to the data you've found/collected though. Nathan

Beautiful shot! Nathan
