Well.. I would say it differs from person to person! I for one are getting the Phantom 2z.

I have an Olympus LS-10 recorder laying in my camera bag at all times. Awesome little thing whenever you have to record audio, fits in your pocket and records superb quality sound!

How about Penguin-Fly? (see attachment)

At least they could've come up with a more catchy name!

the BASE game sucks balls! But worth a shot now that they went bankrupt and made the full version available for free...

Does the holding area qualify as the landing area? Also, people are doing low hooks all the time there.. Some of these rules seem close to impossible to enforce..

yea, F&D definitely is a carrot on a stick right now! By the looks of it i'll fly down to the Netherlands to do my FFC with the J-man this autumn... I just know the next few years are going to be f*cking awesome!!

Really nice video! Really cool to see those superfast shifts in relative altitude! A couple of close ones though! Looking forward to seeing Jarno's take on the F&D! Can't wait to be able to parttake in this myself!!!! Looks like hella fun, in the air AND on the ground!

And here i am.... Covering fucking soccer!

Speck products has a bunch of neat stuff.. I have one called pixelskin for my iPod touch..

I rarely venture into this sub-forum, seeing that i have yet to "join the flock" But congratulations! Thats quite a height difference :P Bah i need to get my war face on and log some more jumps!

Mccordia posted an old gem from 2004 with some pretty elaborate CGI effects, some familiar soundtracks and a sweet flyby! Alltough i prefer the original scene from Top Gun! Clicky!!

The FJC in Kjerag requires a minimum of 250 normal skydives. When you start skydiving you will find out its hella fun and you probably won't be in such a rush to make it to some cliff. Spend some time in the skydiving community, get the freefall experience, learn to deal with stressful situations, maybe get to know a few BASE jumpers etc. The more people you know the better. Im planning to take the FJC in Kjerag too, but not until i have 250+ skydives. So perhaps in 2011..

As requested.. From breakoff till landing! Clicky And again! I appreciate the constructive feedback. And yea, i think its a great thing if people post stuff like this. Regardless of it being them or someone else making a bad move.

Screw those maps, here's the REAL difference between the USA and Europe! Clicky!

Thanks for great input everyone! I have done most of my skydives at my home DZ. Which is a far less busy one. Having a single T/O. And designated landing zones for swoopers, tandem filmers and other high performance flyers. I think of myself as a safe jumper, i always check my airspace thoroughly after breakaway etc. And also under canopy. If there's anything i could have done different in this situation, DO tell! Here are two stills from the vid: Final1 Final2 He was a bit hard to make out against the fog (pic 1). And there was no way of telling when he was going to make his turn. The incident was seen by several others who told me later. I did not talk to him myself, but he was seen talking to others that saw it later on. Here is a longer snippet of video, starting earlier. Clicky When it comes to jumping with a camera, the minimum jump requirement here are 100, I am fully aware of the fact that some people might be more easily distracted by having a camera on their head. But that has not been an issue with me. I do the jump as planned, and i really don't think about the camera again until after i've landed. As for snag hazards, im jumping a TonFly helmet with the CX100 in a tonfly box. Which to me seems like a pretty safe setup. Again, thanks to everyone for great responses. Its all food for thought! - T

Hoodies can also be a bitch, if you dont pull out the strap on the hood itself!

Met this guy on my final in Empuriabrava.. In hindsight i probably chose the most busy part of that particlar LZ (it was one of my first jumps there) but i don't see any reason for anyone to fly in the opposite direction of everyone else. Is this a noteworthy thing or is it a common thing at large dropzones? By the looks of it he had two options, do the turn and land, or land downwind. Clicky

It worked for Fry too.. But he woke up 1000 years later... Wingsuits will be obsolete by then!

Working....

I was waitingfor a flight transfer at a norwegian airport a few years ago when the 124 touched down to pick up Red Cross supplies. Shot a bunch of photos. But they were lost in a harddrive crash! Would LOVE to see the 225 in person!!! EDIT: found some of the low res versions! Antonov1 Antonov2 Antonov3 Antonov4 Would make a nice jumpship allright!

Get blazed

I thought the declaration of independence states that "ALL men are created equal" I can't fucking believe 70% of the people in the US was against same sex marriage! Its preposterous! Like during the superbowl. They aired a friggin anti-abortion commercial instead of the gay dating site commercial! How many NFL players do you think have had to pay for abortions? lol its ridiculous!
