Early March I am driving to Winston-Salem, NC
to visit my Dad on his birthday, and participate
in Chuck Peters' special event.

If you are local to my destination city please
drop me a PM. Also if you are near I75 or I95
and want me to stop by on my way there or
on my way back then let me know.

Alot of nice antennas out there, have fun, i would join you but i dont got any gear right now cause of college expenses.

Got any beer? Cause I got 2 rigs...
but your profile says you only have
2 jumps, is this correct?

I got plenty of beer.

Its correct i started to jump before i was in college but now that im here i dont have a rig anymore and im very buisy with classes and my fraternity. I plan to start back up after college I would love to but this weekend i have my colleges homecoming. Maybe another time, if you come through atlanta stop by and ill take you to some nice antennas near my school.

When i was touring colleges in north carolina one of them was near winston-salem and i noticed a lot of antennas in the middle of wide open fields, good luck, have fun.

good luck with college

How far North on 75 are you coming? And how is the video coming along?

 

That sucks, fucking YouTubers!

uh, WTF are you talking about?

 

 

T_____ was burned in about 2003. We were doing three ways off it when you were still shitting on your hands and wiping it on your face

I just heard people went back out there.

News Flash:
People BASE jump, rest of the world doesn't give a shit.

In the interest of keeping all listed objects jumpable lets leave our southeast drama off the internet and go back to "hush hush" like all of us want.

I have been offline all morning so I have no clue what went
down but hey now I am not even driving up to banjo country.

Jeez...

i see things have not changed since I left almost 2 years ago...

Since I'm back in state for a while, could someone please PM me on what is hot and what is not. I hope all of you have not destroyed all of the great towers we worked so hard on opening up years ago.

I'm not interested in the drama that is going on between the warring tribes of NC... just interested in jumping and not getting hassled because of burning objects.

if it can be discussed without site naming (both objects and people), I'd prefer it NOT to be silent.

people across the US (and perhaps elsewhere) have an opportunity to realize how fragile these "ecosystems" can be. maybe they'll see the benefits of cooperation. it's all cool and groovy to constantly remind people to "contact the locals," and "respect the established guidelines." many prefer to view it as a clique thing, think FU, and jump as they please. getting people to witness the ugly fallout MIGHT cause people to pause, stop, and think.

the same thing happened a state or two away last year(?). suddenly, people wanted to keep everything hush-hush. why? ('course the presumes you can disagree in a civil fashion.)

a year or two back there were plenty of ugly posts regarding that area. now there are more. I fail to see how silence will make it better. I'm betting many jumpers from outside your area think they know those objects and feel free to jump them. silence may not change their behavior...

I hate to continue this thread but i was simply trying to avoid an all out fuck fest of a thread. All the involved jumpers have each others phone numbers and are fully capable of using them to actually discuss their problems.

yeah, and it's funny that i talk to at least a dozen other NC locals regularly, with no issues. all is well in my neighborhood... well, my neighborhood for another 2 weeks that is.

see ya'!

There are no Ant's in NC. All those videos of tower jumps were shot in SC. It's been a big hoax for 13 years now. Speaking of warring locals, does anyone have contact info for my old pal john hayes?

yup... he'll probably see this anyway... but wait one.

Whats up Mike??? Call me, my number is still the same.

lost the number. pm sent
m

so what... did the NC old folks home close down..or they just giving yall internet access?

im gonna throw this out there........im going to school in elizabeth city within the next year, ive got a rig, and im more than fuckin down to drive, groundcrew, etc. etc. and i would be pleased to have you guys buy beer............
peace,
chris
