At final day, for those who is not part of the competition anymore we will let the 10 best jumpers do a additional competition.

Single exits from Raven exit point
Fly a route down to the road, pass a key point, and fly straight up the road 90 left for the jumper, pass the finish line on time. Minimum have 40 sec canopy time. Then we will add a new challenge for the race, and a new way to prove their flying abilities.

The world fastest flying human being
750 m full on race between highly skilled BASE jumpers

This is the ultimate challenge a human being can face in a high speed adrenaline sport. Head to head flying, 750 meters in a horizontal race line. A perfect human flight will determine who can call themselves "The world fastest flying human being"; using no more than gravity and a body dressed in a batman suit to achieve the perfect aerodynamic shape. Hans Holmefjord made one jump with a gps last year, which showed maximum speed 234 km/h. I believe the winner had max speed more than 250 km/h.

There is no registration fee for jumpers, or any fee for the public. We want to make the greatest public party for the Athletes and the Public, and show the world what kind of great athletes BASE jumpers is! This is a top skilled athlete sport, where you not only have to perform in front of the public, but also head to head. All rounds have to be hiked, and therefor the winner also have to be in great shape.
