Just curious…

Not a choice.

I started Skydiving and am getting interested in base.

I started skydiving and slept with a shit hot BASE jumper that corrupted me and turned me to the dark side. Now I see the light.

You need another poll option.

"I began skydiving not know that BASE existed and when I learn about it knew it was for me!"

Thats my vote.

you lucky bastard....

I started skydiving not knowing about BASE.When i heard about it i said i wouldnt be one of thouse yahoos jumping off fixed objects whith only one canopy on their back.
After 450ish skydives i desided to start BASE jumping,but desided not to jump below 300ft.
Soon i found myself below 300ft and 200ft,then i had the thourght that i didnt wanted to go stowed slider off(and as i dont like slider ups too much),which i started at this year,anyway i didnt wanted to go stowed below 400ft,which Chad and Katie(whith out their knowing) made me do this summer(yeah great fun).
I still didnt wanted to do subterminal slider ups neither did i think that arials or unpacked jumps were for me.
This summer i did a few subterminal slider ups(thanks fuckers you know who you are),and a few TARD overs.

Were i am right now?
I just want to learn to do a single gainer,no more arials just the single gainer both slow and fast ofcourse.
Were i am in the furture? only time will tell

Standing next to Jeb Corliss with neophyte basejumpers coming up to you and asking who the goofy looking bald yankee with the black gear is.

I started skydiving with the inted to get into base sometime. I have asked the same question as you some time ago, but unfortunatly, nobody really answered the question.
Nevertheless, this is the topic: http://www.dropzone.com/..._reply;so=ASC;mh=25;
