Re: [magot] skydive mag
I can't say that I would take the same comical approach to a cliff strike as you. If I were the one hanging from a cliff after performing a TARD, I would probably not continue to bring it up in the future.

I traveled across the USA with my entire family and got to jump for one day only at the Turkey Boogie. Most of that day was spent watching and helping you and Marty after your cliff strikes. I got to make one jump all day, right after you were hauled away to the hospital. I've been part of multiple rescues at Moab and I'll happily drop everything to help a fellow jumper who's in a sticky situation. But please consider the fact that many of us sacrificed a lot to help you and Marty off that wall. It's not really something that I would continue to joke about.

Otherwise, I hope both you and Marty have healed well and are back in the air. Cya.

Re: [base428] skydive mag

Maggot, I'll give you my copy so it can do wonders to your sex life. When I get it (I mean, the magazine, not the sex life!) Laugh It's suspiciously late -- that attractive 17y.o. postgirl who brings mail to me must be looking at your hot haircut right now!!! I guess, you'll get a new deathcamper anytime soon. If you take her to make a re-tard TARD-over from one of those buildings on 42nd Street, who'll deliver my Skydiving Magazine, though?


PS. I think we who stopped jumping at Mineral Bottom after the strike should all be grateful to our God Maggot, the BASE Sex Symbol. Because we never know. We never know if something much worse wouldn't happen that day. Angelic

Grateful ? what the fuck were you smoking ? I don't think I stopped jumping that day as a fucking gratuity. I think I stopped jumping because Maggot and the other guy flailing & Spanking the wall was just a BuzzKill to say the least. It just kind of spoils my relaxing jumps and easy going, happy go lucky attitude.
The other guy (name ?) at least had a serious attitude and was giving it his BEST to survive but Maggot you were just running rampant without discipline. I meet you and you seem like a nice and likable guy. I will jump with you anytime but you trying to hold that pace of jumping for any amount of time will come back to bite you in the ass. It also takes a little extra discipline and courtesy to promoters who offer BASE events like Thanksgiving jumps @ Moab.
Honestly any other jump day. Normally I wouldn't give a shit or bat an eye if you smoked-it-in to the dirt but the negative consequences are different when it makes special BASE events and there organizers look Bad.

Re: [magot] skydive mag
I only stopped to watch the drama and see if those guys could actually save your puppet lookin' a$$. I had time to ponder how the hell you got yourself into that situation and to watch spectator after spectator get close enough to the edge without rigs on that I was sure their rescue would be much easier and far less urgent issue.

It was just a mistake so give magot some slack. Magot bragging about his mstake effects me not!

Re: [RayLosli] skydive mag
Here's what I'm trying to say.

150 people making 500 jumps a day off of 300-400ft cliffs... there is almost a certainty that there will be an accident. Serious accident.

If after 100 jumps someone got hurt and jumping shut down, we don't know what kind of accident could have happened after say 400 jumps if there was no accident before. Somebody could have died that day. It could be someone with 1000 jumps going hand-held flat-n-stable from overhung cliff and having out of the blue 180 with 10 linetwists. One can be fully qualified and follow the rules and still go in. We never know. A jump not made is certainly not a killer. Wink

I fully support Jimmy & Marta's decision to cancel next Thanksgiving boogie, because with huge number of jumps made from low cliffs, it's bound to have serious accidents.

Now Maggot, continue to push buttons, it's too funny. Wink

I thought good BASE pay attention to incredible detail to prevent incidents. they don't just shrug and say "ah hell, it was bound to happen..."

bragging about ending a popular event? that doesn't sound like a way to gain respect. it also doesn't show much respect for the people trying to keep sites legal.

maybe I'll feel different if I ever have a cliff strike (but I doubt I'll post the video on the internet).

remember, the best BASE jumps are the ones nobody knows about.

So what You are saying is ?
You are uncertain & that makes you uncomfortable that you Can't Jump a 400 foot Overhung cliff. All day long and not spank it and get all fuckd up ?

What I am saying is.
If you as a BASE jumper can Not go to that VERY Non Technical Cliff and jump all day long without Fucking yourself up. And are Uncertain or Uncomfortable that you achive this small goal. Then Maybe you should jump somewhere else till you have the ability and knowledge to do so.

Re: [RayLosli] skydive mag
I was actually being a bit more metaphysical.

You and Yuri_base always seem to be so certain about things in different ways, or at least that's the feeling I get from your posts.

Let's try not to forget that even very, very experienced jumpers fuck up off objects that are far less technical than the VERY Non Technical Cliff of yours.

Ray, even though I respect the fact that you've made few jumps, been in the sport for a few years, have a way with sewing machines, it seems to me you have found the holly grail of BASE jumping like this guy here found the one for skydiving.

Re: [yuri_base] skydive mag
Hey Yuri,

I wateched your go and throw at the Perrine last Monday. Even with a slight head wind you opened into a stall and were sliding backwards. Fix your DBS before you jump anything solid or you will certainly back into whatever you just jumped off.

Tried to catch you in town but you had left.

In reply to:

I disagree. Some of the events in Malaysia have involved nearly as many jumpers, making more jumps, from a significantly more technical object, without the incident count.

In my opinion, the difference is largely the approach of the jumpers, but that mostly came from the ability of the organizers in Malaysia to ride herd more closely (which is almost impossible in Moab due to the large number of exit points, and the fact that you don't need the organizers permission to just show up and jump).

I don't know that it's possible to create the same kind of safety-conscious atmosphere that you see in some other events in a big, wide ranging event like the Turkey Boogie, but it's definitely not fair to say that incidents are inevitable with 150 jumpers making 500 jumps per day.

Re: [pope] skydive mag
. . . " know what I mean Ray" ?

You have got to be fucking joking ?
Yes I think I know what you mean and I think paid for that bandit jump.
a couple years I thoughtlessly disregarded my Health by NOT taking a more conservative line. I had a bad exit foot hold. I had shitty exit for object clearance. I ignored a strong side wind. That was the last day of the holiday and the following day way the beginning of the business week to limit my building access. I was also mentally Tired from making 10 jump that day already.
I was being greedy but mostly I basically WANTED that object so bad for so long that I talked myself into it and blinded my better judgment by stupidity.

Hey Listen Pope, Just because you don't like me does not mean you have try to be such a fucking Dick. I think I paid for my mistake with 3 broken Ribs. While I also fucked the rest of the load that is still living and out of there exits that evening. You still seem to hold a grudge. Still I did not see anybody else eagerly climbing up to exit that spot ahead of me anyway. ..... Wink maybe you wanted to go first ?
Also bigboy, technically the Event was OVER. so I justified and reinforced my actions with that fact also.
Soooooo tell me. Do you really See, Read, watch video or Hear ME bragging, boosting and yammering on the internet about my bad choice in decisions that evening. Like I'm reading in this fucking thread ???
Also is there anything else you want to publicly get off your chest that is bothering you. Why are you still being a big PooPo Head ?
You must still be holding a Grudge for bringing this SHIT up in the middle of this Thread. That jump was Not Me doing something stupid right in the middle of an event like Moab thanksgiving.
I would like to also Add something to that sharp but selective memory you recklessly throw up. That jump was a group of guys - Which also YOU were one of the group and taking part in - going out and making a BANDIT JUMP off a world class skyscraper at the END of an event. We ALL threw in Together. I screwed the pooch. I paid the price. But at least you got walk away still freely breathing and not bleeding. If you think I was haveing just a little to much fun than you were. Let me know. ...Shocked

So is there anything else you still Think you want to slap me around in public for that you were a part of ?
I think you should Spit it out now buddy Or forever hold your peace. Because I would really like to rap this crap up and put it to an end to all this petty hostility that you hold. Come on dont be scared. Let it out. Im a man and can take a little critisism...Tongue

Re: [TomAiello] skydive mag
Ok. I think we're done here.

Ray, Maggot, let's ease down a little here, ok? Calling each other names is counterproductive. Reasonable statements of your feelings on the issues are ok. It is possible to express yourself (even negatively) without resorting to profanity and personal attacks. I suggest you both read BASE428's post up toward the beginning of the thread to see what I mean.

Maggot, I know that you really aren't as reckless, callous and disrespectful as you come across on this forum. You might consider not baiting people quite so much on-line, because it's going to have an impact in the real world after a while.
