    This isn't Leann Welborn is it? If so give me a shout at jwthomas@unity.ncsu.edu

    You need quite a bit of skydiving experience (at least 150 jumps and greater knowledge of rigging than most people have at that level) before trying BASE.

    hey Leanne,
    I know several cool places to jump from, but Justin told me that if I told anyone about our sites, I would have to kill them after the jump. Since I'm not a killer at heart, I better just stay silent. Out of curiosity, how many skydives do you have and what kind of rigging experience do you have.
    In all seriousness, BASE JUMPING is intense and dangerous stuff and you need to be really heads up to do it safely. Find someone whith lots of base jumps and hang out with them as much as possible and ground crew every chance you get. You'll be suprised at how much you can learn by just hanging around. You might decide that you really dont want to do it after seeing how much effort goes in to making just one jump.
    STAY SAFE

    If your spelling and/or typing is any indication of the level of detail you would give to your BASE rigging and object analysis, I would strongly recommend you pick a different sport.

    just a thought

    First off, There are no handsome jumpers in S.C, just an old grey-haired man, who likes to molest young girls in far-away places, like Idaho. Stay away from this weirdo at ALL COST! Second, you should pick the most experienced jumper in N.C to worship,Whoops,I mean learn from. I heard he lives in Charlotte, and is extremely cool and handsome.
    Look him up!
    N.C BASE 1

    ps As 697 said. Have you ever seen Justin pack? Scary!! He also has a Brittney Spears sticker on his rig. Scary!! He's like a younger version of that weirdo in S.C.
    :D

    That NC BASE 1 guy will get your gear taken at some point though so it may be best to stay away from him as well!

    Hmmm, flat and stable huh?? Seems like the last 2 times I saw you exit you went way head down. Your only saving grace was altitude :P

    I agree that there are no handsome BASE jumpers in SC and the most "experienced" BASE jumper in NC is not only very uncool but also quite ugly!:*

    The second most experienced BASE jumper in NC but gaining fast.

    45 degrees is not way head down :) Besides you were turning on your back and had you not flipped over you'd of stayed that way ;-)

    I need to quit doing static lines! And keep my gear to myself.
