The Hangout

Shortcut
close call at the ITW
Just a quick note to remind everyone why having good accuracy skills is so important even with a big LZ...

There are no sit on toilets at the camp site we stayed at,

In my haste to take a crap i nearly landed my food babys back into my own trousers....

You must squat the whole way down, and pull the back of your pants forward.

A lesson for us all!!!

I think this should become a sticky!!!! As it nearly was for me.

You should try leaning against something such as a tree , boulder, rockface, etc. Allows you to get your legs out of the way. Think of the old sitflying drill where you put your back against the wall. Works wonders plus you can strengthen your legs and take a shit at the same time.

This is craping in the woods 101. I like to prop myself against a tree though so your quads don't get burnt out. Glad everything worked out for you!

This thread should be moved to the technical forum. Non-potty training for jumpers. As I always say, "You shat in that?!?!"

Re: [460] close call at the ITW
i prefer to take one entire pant leg off of a leg, throw it to the side, stand there and shit. works perfect especially for lazy people.

Don't overdelay and you'll be fine. Using your brain can save you from using your ninja accuracy skills.

Otherwise known as the "pre-jump dump".

Re: [PikeyBASE] close call at the ITW
I loaded my pants while picking out toggle bolts in Home Depot. Close out the bars, then Taco Bell afterwards, followed by a 6am start time at work. I had 3 boxes of bolts in my arms and it just came out before I even knew what happend. Warm.

Since then, i've never handled those bolts. They make you shit your pants.

Phil Smith is shit BASE #1.

When I got into BASE jumping in 1992, the world's most experienced cliff jumps I learned from always took toilet paper rolls on their ascents of walls. They called them "fear tickets."

Re: [fenix66] close call at the ITW
i dont think some of you are taking this seriously, the thread got moved an everything,

I'm going to have to take a picture of these toilets in the camp sites, s we all know whats going on here, shitting in a hole aint as easy or as practical as it looks, a shit in the woods, now thats a walk in the park, and its nice to see left over paper is left in the hotspots, in case you are caught short pre jump time....

On another note, thanks to 50 cal course for letting me tag along, and learn something and jump.... 2 years of waiting and learning finally paid offf..

Re: [crashtested] close call at the ITW
I was being serious in both of my posts actually. I learned my lesson the hard way and will be taking wagbags with me from now on. Unimpressed
