I am interested in peoples view on this. My PC's have non load tapes and are non AV. The people who make these PC's have a valid argument for the reasonings for this. The people I speak to about the negative side also have valid points. I see both sides and my feelings do lead me to believe that load taped and AV do help stop oscilation in some situations - (higher air speed) . I know of several jumps I have had with with Off Heading are caused by the PC oscilation (review of video) . Maily this is caused by the way I have thrown my PC on some jumps (I no longer throw this way!!) . Others where I "place" my PC I have had no problem with OH (other factors have effected this ). As has been mentioned on LOW jumps (as most of mine are ) is there a real advantage of load taped AV PC's? I would like some views to either comfirm my thoughts, cancel my thoughts or open my eyes to other areas! My opinion (that is worth $hit) is that the way the PC is thrown and folded has more effect on the way it acts. Be safe........... be a newbie thinking about things and wanting opinions..........

I keep a log book - but its a personal record for me to flick through and remember some of the jumps I have made and smile! As you said - making up numbers is cheating yourself - you cant make up the memories which is why I log jumps. I beleive that most if not all jumpers will not lie about their jump numbers. Thats one reason BASE'rs are such cool people!!! Be Safe............... be logging jumps for yourself Michael PS) Happy New year - heres to 2003 and some good and safe jumping...........

my opinion is that a FJC does not open doors like that. It just shows you that you know shit and need to learn more. In countries where the BASE population is small - it does not open doors. it still take alot of hard work to get with experienced people! just my 2 low altitude freefalls worth!! Be Safe

dude i spend my life looking for females sub 18!!! the way i see it age does not matter in the sport - dont sweat it! but I am still here looking for sub 18 yr olds!!!!!

well done! and you come on the internet onto this site on your marriage day?!?!?! mmmmmm....... that is a worry............ be safe............ be...........well............ be how people want to look at that.........

you get laid by a finnish bird then?? what you up to recently dude? be safe............

no as i said before some associations look badly upon BASE - so if you are associated with skydiving there is a possibility of being banned from skydiving because you BASE - bringing the sport into disrepute - bad PR! not because of elitism - if anything skydivers are worse at thinking they are "special"!!!!! Be safe......... be not wanting to argue about whos better!!!!

No it is not.......... FF/RW/CRW/Accuracy/style/swooping/skysurf etc are forms of skydiving....... BASE is nothing like skydiving except you hang under a canopy........same as paragliding is not a form of skydiving......... completly different sports! Be safe...........

and guess what I have just found http://www.blincmagazine.com/cgi-bin/forum/dcboard.cgi?az=show_thread&om=1758&forum=board&viewmode=threaded this has been discussed before!!!!!! Be safe..... be bored with bad weather trawling the BLINC archives!!

i only posted that as if you are found "skydiving" off something and it perhaps published in the news paper as "man caught skydiving" off building - it could be seen as bringing the sport (sport parachuting) into disrepute and thus the individual may than be banned from their national association!! just an observation on how the media and the constant connection between two seperate sports are a possible problem! Be Safe........ M

"skydivers leap off" Why Skydivers??? Would the publicity be better suited keeping these two sports seperate? Especially in regards to how some associations of skydiving will throw people out for bringing the sport into disrepute and although seen as seperate if your called a skydiver doing this and get hurt / arrested etc etc (bad PR for the association etc) then technically you are bringing the sport into disrepute............. just my 2 groats worth....... M

I have jumped that A - its kinda nice! except the last time with a dead cow rotting at the bottom of it you could smell death all the way up!!! Nasty!!! Be Safe................ be smelling rotting bovine!

If someone goes in - its now game over - I dont give a shit about police or burning - my friend is dead and i have the respect for him and his family to stay and deal with the shit as it happens. I would not jump with someone who would not do the same with me. Be Safe........... be having respect for the people you jump with........ M

i did tax awhile ago - for my sins in a past life i am an accountant!!! but dont touch tax - dont know what te US tax laws are but here I THINK that it would be treated as a capital gain with the yearly allowance attached to it - but hey I sat tax exams and never touched tax again - and im in the UK and not US so basically my post is complete bollox and no use to you or anyone else - oh well bored at home and injured so needed somthing to do!!!!

because less women overall........ excellent - a weighted average.......... be safe.......... be looking at statistics correctly! M

That must have smart a bit!! Be Safe...............

Well technically this is so - I mean you cant actually get charged with "BASE jumping" but they will try and charge you for "breach of the peace" or "wreckless endangerment" or "causing undue stress" and any other imaginative thing the old bill can dream up when they catch you. I would be interested to hear if any of the UK jumpers have had their collars felt and what the out come was. Be Safe................ be treated like a criminal for no such reason other than mis-understanding! M

So anyone else sat at home with an injury bored shitless coz they cant do anything?!??! - yeah I know you have Faber!!!! How did you get injured??? be safe........... be at home bored and cracking one off!!! x 5 a day!!!
