I'm trying to find anyone who took photos of Russel (the guy in the wheelchair who jumped over Memorial Day in Twin Falls). I've gotten some photos, and I'd like to put together a CD of them to give to him (Russel, that is).

If you've got some photos of him that you would be willing to let him have for private, non-commercial use, shoot me a PM or email.

Thanks!

 Sporto may have some.(sorry i think you already know this ?)
Rode up the hill with Russell. Talked about the jump and his New River jump that i saw last year too. Congrats Russell ! An inspiration to me and many others. You guys are great for making it happen. And thanks for the party/ raffle, etc.

I already have Sporto's photos. We burned them onto a CD for Russel to take home that night.

Thanks!

just curious.. how is it possible to do BASEjumping or skydiving when you're in a wheelchair? exit, tracking and landing must be really difficult. how does he do it?

or did i just misunderstand the whole thing?

He is not physically in the wheelchair during the jump.

These were slider down BASE jumps, so tracking wasn't a part of the jump.

He landed in water.

 Ben took a bunch of action shots of you guys jump. Where do I send them??? They are all 6 meg high res.

p.s. Always a major pleasure to hang with everyone at the bridge.

Tom, I have a few, but my internet at my place is not working. I will email you them from my office later this weekend or Monday.
