April 7th, 2006 it seems that in this day and age alot of people dont jump at night.... I have spoken to a few people who just wont jump at night, they think its hardcore! thats just wrong!And whats with the night BASE # doesn't everyone jump at night anyway
saying that, I have to get my night span to get my night BASE, and sadly all the spans I have jumped are daytime....
April 7th, 2006 if u can jump it durimg the day u can jump it at night. and u dont need a full moon this si BASE jumping not tennis its supposed to be dangerous.

April 24th, 2006 Hi. I just got mine today.
BASE 1082.
April 24th, 2006 R U the guy with a real pretty left asscheek ?Originally Posted by 1082
April 25th, 2006 Yup, it's me.It's pretty much healed up already except for a few lumps.
Are you the guy with the busted Fib?
April 26th, 2006 I was issued BASE 1064 about 6 months ago, I know 1000+ doesn't seem significant, but it is to me. If I hadn't gotten sent on a year long deployment I definitely would have made it in under 1000. Oh well, the things I do for my country.
February 25th, 2008 #1224 is me, issued 1/19/08. I got it in the mail last Friday.
#1225 was issued to a friend of mine who followed me off the B about 5 seconds later.
February 26th, 2008 More importantly, the things Gaddy does for $20!
Hey if you really care about three digits apply for your Night-BASE number. You do have all objects at night, right? With the perrine and moab its surprising to see how many people never have gone to jump a cliff or bridge at night.
All this is of course second to WHO GIVES A SHIT! You got what you got and it is what it is.

and what "hamsandwich" said.;;; if ya wanna a low (3 digit) BASE number get a night BASE. In 2006 you could get a sub-200, "shiite"- a sub 175 number and that was in 2006.
it dont mean snot! when you got your "number"/"card" in the mail did it change anything? nope! YOUR STILL the same schlub you were the day before. i Used to think BASe would some how change me or sum shiite like that? nope!
IF YOU have more jumps from feed silo's, smoke stacks and cranes etc. does that make you less a fixed object jumper. IN a lot of case's those three item's can be higher than a lot of your typical "B.A.S.E." exit point's.
i'm still the same guy, IM NOT A BASE JUMPER! Im the "Same guy" i was before who now participates in parachute activities (hopefully from fixed stuff).
It (BASE number) was for me a goal after i passsed AFF, just like a couple other things/place's that i've already done and now?
IT'S funny at what i thought was cool to do in BASE at one time and now what i think is pointless in BASE?
Don't mean to be so synical. I know some people are really proud of their BASE numbers . So proud they name them selves and refer to other's by their numbers instead of their names. Almost in a military fashion?
but whatever each their own.
bye
February 26th, 2008 good job taking your time Brian. Congrats on getting your B.
March 24th, 2008 1232 bitches. Even Harvey has one now.
3,2,1, teabag.
March 24th, 2008 There goes the neighborhood!
EC#'s are cooler.
March 25th, 2008 True, my BASE number does not mean as much as it did to me when I got mine, and the reasons I applied for it do not apply to me now, but I still hold it, and hold it proud. So I dont flash it about as much as I did when I received it (I too, changed my user name to my BASE number because I wanted to shout about it at during that time of newbie 20 jump wonder feelings), but after time and experience I realised it meant nothing more and nothing less than a set of jumps I will remember forever and give me a link to the start of this activity that I respect. It became personal. When I write down a telephone number that ends in my BASE number I will switch quickly to my B jump that got my number, or the E which I really should not have done, that flash of memory re-lighted from a telephone number is worth it... its obvious that it meant more then than now, but it still means somthing now...
That little grin or smile when you see a number plate, or a telehone number, a price tag, a bus number, or a balance sheet liability? That shit can not be bought.... who else gets to smile or receive a flash of memory of something really fucking emotional from something as simple as a number, a number that means nothing to anyone else? Not many............ that is why its worth applying for it...

March 28th, 2008 So right on the mark....
My self (454) and Chris (453) of that awesome Hotel at midnight.... Wait, we are still not sure how many people actually got their number on a BLUE Moon as w did. That alone topped off entire experience. Not for anyone be us two.
Chris actually reminded me last summer about our anniversary of that jump.
I do not think I would have the same memories, and joy if I was doing it for anything but myself....
