Interesting... My order is in, how many others have ordered a pair of PF pants?

Where?
baseheimen lives in midst of the popular walls (the bigger ones) further north in Norway. If I had to guess I'd say KT, but there are lots of candidates up there.

Yo, buy a pair of rain pants and burn a few holes in the front, no need to spend 400.00$ on a 60.00$ set of gear. blues

The folks who pioneered the smoking pants you describe have all pretty much gone over to the Phoenix Fly gear. It's reportedly a significant improvement over the "rain suit with holes" setup.

The SmokePants are good, but the Phoenix Pants are better!

I did it from the other side of the Valley of K.Tind in Romsdalen... The exit is on ca 1600 meters.. The conditions wasn`t the best.. A week earlier i had 48 sec and pulled very very high... I had about 44/45 sec from K.tind 1370 meter high..
This is with the fly pants...
I have done about 100 jumps with the smokepants, they are good, but the flypants gives you more speed and altitude...
Fly on friends....

Hi Tom H. -- Keep the reports coming -- I love to hear what the Norwegians are up to in the land of big walls.
Enjoyed jumping with you in China and hope to see you next summer in Norway.
C-ya,

And that's the word from a guy who changed BASE history. Crap pants and a cigarette.
That's my kind of engineering. When the text books get written A.D.s name had better be in there or I'll haunt their asses.
The smoking man rules (in a carcinogenic sense, of course).
Respect.
