My names Josh I live in San Antonio, I have never been skydiving but my friends and I are really curious about base jumping and all that good stuff. I was wondering if anyone would be down to show us a few things and tell us about Thier experiences. If you can meet up in San Antonio give me a shout at jo3co15@gmail.com
Thanks

What are you offering in return ?

What? How about the chance to bring the stoke of base jumping to someone who has never even seen a parachute?
I can teach you how to DH longboard if you want.

AAAAHAHAHAHA omgwtflol :) lol :)

Whats up with the immaturity? Is this funny?

I feel honored and moved that you have chosen our small community on which to bestow this great gift. Little could I have dreamed that I would ever have such a wonderful opportuni... oh. You're in Texas. Marooned on the other side of the atlantic. With this one chance at happiness gone, I retreat back to my grey, stokeless world

I was actually doing you a favor with the link.

Here, let me check your email for you

Ta-daaaa

in the US, BASE jumping frequently requires folks to violate trespassing laws.

so, you are asking people you do not know, to chat about potentially less than legal activity.

does that sound sane?

would not introducing yourself and attempting to build trust get you a more positive response? maybe make yourself appealing in some fashion?

your request strikes many as ludicrous, thus it attracts ludicrous responses. it is nothing new here.

In order for you to ever "see a parachute" you will have to commit to skydiving first! Unless you go the way Em suggested with a TandemBASE. Other than that it will just not happen. So you should make the trip to moab for a tandem base jump from a cliff or contact tandembase.com to go from the perrine bridge in ID.

That's one of the best lines I've read in a long time. Just for that I would at least contact you if I were in San Antonio.

Are there really downhillable hills in San Antonio?

Got a million dollars? Search round on the forums I think there's some guy offering a BASE crash course for a million. And I think he might live near Spurs country. Don't know if he'll give group discounts though.

Do you Know any abstract poetry and/or have an alter ego? that seems to win people over here to!

By far the most hilarious thing I've read onany forum. +12333

Actually yea bro, race season is here so it's about to get pretty roudy. If you where here I'd take you to some good runs, 45+mph a few 60+mph runs.

I live near SA and jumped a few thing here and there. For five thousand dollars ill sell you a parachute and take you for a jump off a building downtown.
