    There are definate rules to posting on this website.

    1. DO NOT mention sites by name unless they are legal.

    2. DO NOT mention or discuss any site specific information.

    Mr Douva with his very indiscreet post regarding the Stratosphere is the most recent case in point. Another equally egregious offence was thankfully deleted by this sites monitor.

    Your credibility is based on your trustworthiness. Find out who the locals are and contact them directly if you have info, comments, questions or need beta. This is NOT the place to go into detail!!!!!!!!!

    Nuff said...go have fun

    I perfectly agree with you two guys (an girls).
    And I would like to add the following.
    I would not post information not even about legal sites in Europe, and more specificallly, for example, in Italy, where BASE is not illegal, for the simple reason that it is true that BASE in Italy is not illegal, but, be honest, would you jump off a bridge in the middle of the day when there are lots of cars passing through it or in front of a Police car? Even if it is not forbidden? I know it is hard to wake at dawn to jump, but it is the only way to keep things discreet, but it is not so easily understandable by wannaby BASE jumpers. Wake up at dawn? Why? Are you crazy? It is much nicer to wake up at 10.00 am and jump at noon (when, moreover, there is much more wind...).
    Nowadays BASE is becoming "too" popular, and it begins to grow the number of skydivers that would like to become BASE jumper because it is cool. But you know perfectly what I mean, of course.
    If I posted that we discovered a very nice jumpable bridge "there" and the details of how to approach it and how to jump it, I swear that we would create the possibility the wannaby BASE jumpers go there and try to jump it without the supervision of an expert BASE jumper, probably without the proper gear, etc. etc..
    So, to end this post, yes, let us be discreet!!! But very discreet!!!
    Blue skies to everybody
    Andrea
