I know this man you speak of to be a talented, knowledgeable, and friendly base jumper. Who are you to anonymously post otherwise?

 

you can take anybody's FJC and be injured or kill any time. if you don't want to get hurt don't BASE jump play soccer or some thing else.

I know him. Maybe you had some learning probs. You are basically anon. I just have to give credit to him because of this rather than you. SEnd me a message if it is really bad like you say. 900 yoyos for someone to teach how to hurl yourself off a cliff or something and survive and you are whining about no 10 euro hook knife. I seem to be missing your point. We can sort this out. But you dissing people online is not the way IMHO. Just contact the ones in the know and it will get sorted.
How was your jump?
Also, You cant expect someone to give up everything to teach you BASE. well you can but it aint realistic. If I had 10 students in a year paying 900 i could almost buy a cheap car if I didnt take an apartment or eat.
Take care, message me and we can get it sorted.

I know Hubsi.
I don't know about how he care about money but probably like everyone of us.
I don't know if his course is good or bad and how he taeach.

I know that he teach guy from my country and didn't check his background. Guy had bellow 150 skydive jumps collected in few years of jumping.
But sometimes number is not everything.
The guy is any active climber and probably it helps him with dealing in extreme situations.
The guy i think is jumping and didn't get hurt yet.
Maybe he is talented ;-)

Relax and mucho BASE ;-)

(not at you Oleck)
Just the fact that a BASE instructor tells you how many skydives you should should have means he is playing the game of the government. Govs need numbers. It is the responsibility of the instructor to supply these numbers as loosless as they are. But if you, as an instructor, put your budding student on a 50 skydive BASE course he is gonna be way ahead of the pack than one who did a couple of tracking jumps when he had 800+ skydives. . I would put up my student with a 120 skydives against any BASEr just because of the fact that he did 60 BASE preparation jumps.. and have anyone out wing or track him. It would be a run for the money. I have a prob with baseenergy2010 being anon. If one wants to give crap, one should man up and stand by what they say unanon IMHO. It is just a new social thing (15yrs) with the internet. Anyone can post crap and not be held responsible. or post uncrap. Who is to know if one takes the anon way?

What about a poll trying to find out if the text in this poll is true?

What's up with this knife situation.
Can you explain?

this is BASE.
make your call and be prepared to deal with the consequences.

it starts with choosing a solid instructor. communication is key. the experienced jumper might be skilled, but they and the student do not click. or the experienced jumper may be weak.

there is no organization out there to protect students.

each individual jumper must develop judgment on whether or not to jump. start with choosing the right instructor for YOU.

-----

as for the specific individual, I do not know them. I have zero opinion.

anonymous criticism can reflect poorly on either party. you may be doing yourself a disservice.

if you make a bad call, do a jump beyond your skill level, and end up in the hospital, will you complain about the object, or your decision? is it any different here?

soccer hurts. it's till now the cause of my only official broken bone.

Hi Olek
If you know hubsi,I think is better ask to him about knife situation

If you are posting something about someone than don't behave like that.
Finish your trolling.

anonymous criticism = zero credibility.

yea, I broke my collar bone playing soccer. your luck, I have many broken bones for all sports

Kitchen Knife makes BASE jumping safer.
If it is available in blue or red color with the white cross - I want two on my rig! :)

Her Hupsi, next time you are in LB, buy the swiss knife - miltiparctical one! You see - it is a must for survival skill :)

 

A better poll would have been have you
ever used a knife on ANY jump ever!!

3000 SKY jumps - nope
210 BASE jumps - nope

i use hook knives all the time... to cut break cord.

hey bro, don;t talk about things you know absolutley nothing about on a public forum. have we met?
if we have and you have a personal problem with me lets sort it out. or are you looking for a discount? we can talk about that too...
hupsi

I did my first basecourse with Hupsi and it was awesome...
he gave me a short introduction in Benidom before the Bali event, while we were doing lines on a spanish hookers butt ( thats how I met Dan the Man, Nico and Olek) just around the corner from the Bali....next day I took part in the competition and almost made it to the final round - but I kept doing to many shots with Frank so i decided to go and do some bandit jumps - thats when I did my first static line jump ( the static line kit is included in the first jump course)...so i can only recommend it

 

you claim to speak the truth???????about something you might have 3rd or 4th hand information on?????inform yourself correctly before you go spreading rumors on the web. you still haven´t told me if we met or not. what are you afraid of?
thanks for recommending my course Gee!!!!!!!! from now on the lines and hookers are included in the price btw!!!

Hupsi,
You still own me money.
I get course from him and he paid me but not everything.
I will get you somewhere.
Maybe on the BASE Race. Cu

you mean your wide angle lens I destroyed right? I know you will get me.....

That's the other thing :P
Good that you didn't destroy camera.
