Today we had our first day at Alor Setar International Tower jump 2005 with 6.5 hours of jumping. We have 12 jumpers from Malaysia, Australia, USA, UK, Norway and New Zealand.
A total of 113 jumps were made with out any incidents.
We would like to congratulate Greg and Jamie for both completing their 100th base jump. Also Gary broke the tower record, completing 23 jumps, doing all packing himself.

Jumping continues here for two more days with 8 hours of jumping per day.

Wow. Nice job, Gary. That's pretty freakin' impressive. Maybe we need another world record category. Most jumps in 8 hours packing for yourself, or something like that.

Was that on just one rig?

Good job Gary!

Tom> How about a record per object? cause besides packing, the object is the limitating factor :)

do you want the record for the swiss bridge ??

Naaahh.. am sure someone did more than 2 in an hour from that one..

Jumping at Alor Setar continued today. Over 115 jumps were completed.
Greg and Stefan did their personal best of 17 jumps each. Gary set a new Malaysian record with 26 jumps and also completed his 100th Alor Setar jump.

Jumping will continue here tomorrow before moving to KL Tower next weekend.

Sounds like good times over there.....

How many base jumps does a person need to be able to jump there.....
