I've noticed that there's a ton of BASE gear makers, both for canopies and containers.

Don't want to ask which is best, but I'm wondering if there's actually that much difference between all these brands? Objectively speaking.

Apex seems to be very popular in the US, and I do see a lot of people using adrenalinbase+atair gear in Europe.

Lately I've seen lots of videos with turbolenza branded stuff, but I can't really tell if they make BASE gear. The soul flyers, for example, use gear branded turbolenza but I think their rigs are made by Asylum Designs.

Any thoughts on that?

Everyone has personal preferences. It's best to jump a variety of gear before deciding on a purchase, so that you can form a more educated opinion for yourself, about what _you_ like.

BASE Jumping is big business now, its hard to find folks who are not biased for one reason or another.

For info soulflyers jump the snekor rig, made in france.

Lets get serious for a minute.

What gear would Jesus choose?

Jesus chose Apex. I know this because Jesus was my son

You put the ape in apex.

Touché. But now you had to go insult the simians

That would be odd to be shaking god's hand and hear him say "I'm douchekiller on basejumper."

well i suppose that all depends hayes. are we talking about bearded, grown man jesus? sweet, tender, 6lb 8 oz beautiful baby jesus?

i always pictured jesus as a muscular trapeze artists, flying gracefully through the sky............

im gonna say asylum

Good points. I like to think of Jesus like with giant eagles wings, and singin' lead vocals for Lynyrd Skynyrd with, like, an angel band, and I'm in the front row and I'm hammered drunk!

Look at the amount douche bags that I have taken from this world since the beginning of time. I think my alias is very fitting

I'll ask him next week when he mows my yard.

You must be located in the Southwestern US...
