General BASE

Shortcut
Road Closed
We are probably the only people not inconvenienced about that fact; it just means more space to land.

I have always been shit scared of this place and not really for any rational reason, just scared. So all in all I have only jumped it twice before. Also it's a bit more of a hike than for the object I have most jumped just across the bay.

Yesterday, Sunday the 15th, we decided on doing the hike since it seems buddies are getting bored of the usual old reliable object...

Had I been alone, I wouldn't have jumped; a bit of a cross wind at the top was enough to get me worried; others would say I worry all the time. The stuntman went off first and apart from quite a bit of push after exit had quite an uneventful flight. I used the video excuse to go off last which was a bit dumb because by then the wind was at its strongest... Crazy

It's a very very nice jump, I am still shit scared of it though.

edited to add photobucket thingy...

If you're not tempted, we'll just throw you off Tongue
I am hoping to be working next week, wallet's getting real thin... but there's always time for a jump here and there.
