    BASE Tattoos

    ...not the scars... but the ink.. I am booking in next weekend to have my number tattooed under my bone graft scar on my hip (by another jumper too)....

    So it got me wondering, what BASE related tattoos do you have?

    Nice!
    To add a wiki page link in a posting here, just wrap the page name in a square bracket wiki tag without spaces like:

    [ wiki ]454[/ wiki ]

    turns into:

    Re: BASE Tattoos

    I have no BASE related tattoos but a lot of other tattoos :-)
    2 days ago I had a 4 hours session to make the complete outlines of both my front femorals. I could hardly walk in the evening. Yesterday I went for a terminal WS Base jump with a 1 hour hike to get to the exit. First thought after opening was as usual "cool, it's open and no twists and on heading..." and the second thought was "fuck, maybe not the best idea to jump after a 4 hour tattoo session" :-)
    So in some kind of way this is also a BASE related tattoo :-)

    I would take it seriously; but it's serious and ridiculous at the same time. -sl
