This statement is giving me a headache. Pirate

Check out my vid, let me know what you think

since you asked...

1) nothing new. been done before. it might be new to you, but that doesn't mean others will get it. it's hard to draw a viewer in when you do NOT tell a story. it's seems a fancy version of the old "what I did last summer" class report.

2) disappointed by the lack of protective gear.

3) you should be doing whatever for yourself, not for approval from others. you should not need to ask... (yes, I'm being harsh. if you act for yourself, it won't matter.)

It's like everyone elses video of their trip to TF.

Some nice exits, some that not so nice, and some that look like people are perfecting their craft.

But not much different than everyone elses home movies, too bad it's on YouTube.

Thanks

Re: [lowpullproductions] What do you guys think
Let me clarify.

There are much better places to share your BASE videos.

This website, or maybe skydivingmovies.com

I have a problem with BASE videos being shared on you tube, because BASE should be kept among BASE jumpers. We have enough pressure in this sport to keep from being harassed.

I think if people see the sport, it will be more easily accepted..........

Sorry but it wont..
First off we dont represent a large group,therefore we will always bee seen as nutters...

Next thing,MOST,not all, of us has been trasspassing at some point to gain a jump.. To us its the way to get a jump,to others we a criminals..

Ive stopped looking at BASE as a sport,as i dont think it is a sport.. We dont have rules,we might have games about landing accurate on headding and so on,but hey not more than just for the fun of it..
Nahh to me BASE is a lifestyle similar to people going to motorcykel clubs etc etc some people join,some leave,some die or get injuryed,some stay for life time some just go to event,some do it in the summer some quit in the winter..
The big thing about BASE is that we love doing what we do,and people outside can understand or not,if we want to we will keep doing it..

damn.. i got sentimentalSlyLaugh better go for a beerCool

This is one of the wisest things I've ever heard you say (although still not the most grammatically correct, in English--still it's better than my Dutch Tongue).
