  12. Hi!- Does anyone know of any South African Base jumpers living in either Jo'burg or Capetown?-(or anywhere actually.... ill be driving around). ill be over there for three weeks in mid march till early april and would love to hook up with other jumpers. Cheers! reiner
  13. Hi Everybody-this guy's for real!- He showed me a real good time in switzerland over the last couple weeks!- Thanks for all your help amigo! good luck!
  14. Cheers buddy!- Id just like to add that maybe 'the pact' is harmful to base. Sure, if you adhere to it, perhaps you might stay out of trouble, But surely it will come out that the person was base jumping and the anonymous phone caller knows more than he's let on-and abandoned the deceased.- That kind of 'publicity is not what Base-jumping as a sport needs. Reiner
  15. I always thought that the real ethics of base jumping was to conduct ourselves responsibly and promote a positve image of our sport to the rest of the world. How are we supposed to do that if the world sees us as the type of people who leave our friends behind- and who dont assume to do the responsible or humane thing. Im a base jumper- and i dont consider myself a criminal- as someone else once put it (cant remember who)- 'all im doing is borrowing a little altitude' We are not criminals- we shouldnt act like criminals I work- and i value my job as much as the next guy. I have a girl-who i intend to marry, and who i would like to grow old and healthy with. I base jump- and that is my decision. Hopefully i will always make the right decisions. Personally, i dont make friends just to leave thier bodies out in the cold. Reiner. P.s- I'm not directing this at anyone. I just think that if we want to make people understand why we love base and why we jump. We cant give them something that they cant swallow. Most people out there can learn to understand that base jumpers are not actually committing any moral crime- but i dont think that most people can learn to agree with leaving a human beings body smashed on the ground below an antenna or building or wherever. I mean- dont the armed forces always say that they never leave a man behind dead or a live. my 2c.
  16. Hi buddy!- Well... im flying into Geneva in the evening of the 2nd and was planning to go straight there. But i guess im flexible if something was on the cards!- got anything in mind?? ....sorry, unfortionately, I dont speak french.
  17. HI!- ILL BE JUMPING IN L FROM THE 2ND TO THE 15TH OF FEBRUARY '06 AND WANT TO GET IN TOUCH WITH ANY JUMPERS WHO MIGHT BE AROUND IN EARLY FEBRUARY AND WHO WOULD LIKE TO MEET UP. PLEASE SEND ME A PM IF INTERESTED
  18. Perth itself has some awesome buildings. ...........there's a nice A' down in Bussleton about 3 hours south- towards Margaret river.
  19. Cheers!- I come to the Uk every month, so base is an option for me there as well, so if i move to the continent i can have 'the best of both worlds'....and the sun Iknow a person from theese boards who live in Swiss i think who also work offshore. Swiss has some great walls. Yeah, i think i know him too.
  20. Yeah!- i thought of that and while it would be awsome, its not an EU country, so if i immigrated and registered over there id have to pay heaps in tax... nope i think ill stick to europe and then just head off to norway a couple times a year at least in europe i can spread myself around a bit. take it easy!
  21. Cheers!- east france was my favorite option- base wise... i didnt realise that there were english speaking places in france. i knew the french could speak english quite well, but was under the impression that they chose not to.....guess i was wrong.
  22. Your right.......ofcourse. I work for two weeks of the month offshore, so the chances of me picking up a second language is quite remote. Whilst im at work, my girlfriend would be spending most of the time alone in that country.......... shes not a jumper and you know how it is??- think it might be more helpful (for me), if she could meet people and make new friends easier. have i redeemed myself????
