opening an object is one of the biggest achivements you can do in BASE.. doing the resarch,climb it for the first time and then jump it..

its cool,i hope you open many more

By "opening" IT, do you mean , You were the first ever to do so, or do you mean You Knew nothing about the object and went forward on your own?

Because in this day and age i'd find i hard to believe you'd be the first to jump any antenna unless it was just constructed?

Not trying to pee on your parade, but just mainly wondering what Your definition of Opening was?

Seems like you guys had fun regardless of definition.

Re: [AgainstTheFall] opened my first object tonight
Well it certainly wasn't "just constructed"...so it very well may have been done in the past. Hell, it could have been jumped the day before by some quiet local. But it is in a very rural area and there are no (known) active jumpers for hours and the closest ones think that it has never been jumped.

So maybe we were the first...maybe not.

From all we can tell, it had never been jumped, and from our perspective, it was the same experience (research of the area, scouting the site, climbing it, and doing the jump.)

In the grand scheme of things...it doesn't really matter....Like you said....we had fun regardless.

Jay, thanks for making that long drive to make it happen!!!

Question is...what are we gonna' call it?

mike, you did me a big favor as well. it sucks being the only jumper around. as to the question on the name...i think that's up to you. you found it, you name it! that's a well earned "A".

A good object and my first "A"!

Jay, thanks for making that long drive to make it happen!!!

Also, thanks to Stephen for helping with the research!

Glamorous is not getting hurt or caught.

Happy to help with the research. I'm glad it looked as good when you got there as we thought it was going to be. I'll definitely try to make it next time you are in the area so I can see it for myself from the top.
