Much respect and admiration are due to Tracy. Being a pioneer back in the day with BASE took much more than a lot of todays jumpers have.

Thanks for your part in the History of BASE! Smile

Thanks to everyone that has been a part of the 20 years.
30 jumpers on the exit point cheering me off, many more at the party. Special thanks to Mucho BASE just for being Mucho BASE. And super special thanks to my wife who organized everything. Great jumps! A perfect time it was for me.
Take care,
Tracy

...and not to forget Tracey´s "tracking pants" which he already used back in 1997 at Kjerag and kept it always as his top secret - until one night when he slept in the White House, heavily drunken from my bottle of Grappa which he obviously like a lot. it was almost empty when he felt asleep. At that time we took our chance and just discovered that he used something similar as skijumpers. very innovative at that time! and everything is covered on video. tracey how much would you pay to get hold of it and not disclose it on the web :-))))

also all the best from my side and always stay safe,
Bernhard

Congratulations!!!

I very vividly remember the first time Tracy took us to ITW, must´ve been 12 years ago: scrambling for 3 hours on the wrong side of the mountain only to arrive in the rain sandwiched between 2 layers of clouds... we spent some miserable time freezing, until somebody figured out the fire Smile Eventually ended up jumping in the rain through the tiny hole, and Tracy had to hike down with his student. They were so cold they couldn´t drive the car down for a while, but when it did arrive at the bottom the brakes were burning, literally Wink

Another 20 years coming up soon!

Thanks to everyone who helped make Spacy Tracy's twenty years in BASE and his celebration weekend such a success. We both had a great time but there were not nearly enough hangovers the day after the party!
