Heath Ordway aka Wasatchrider hit 500 jumps the other day. Just sending him a big congrats on 500.

Some of his accomplishments are as followed:

First rodeo 7 ski base
First switch misty 9 ski base
First floater misty 9 on sweet spot
Opened an accidental exit in Moab with Stealthyb
Landed in a tree after 495 jumps on a canopy that wasn't his
Lost a shoe on an aerial at the bridge
Invented the Heathover which is a rollover without stowed brakes

Happy 500 and may there be 5327 more

Most of you said he'd be dead, and most in disbelief, some of you said "death camping" was no way to start BASE jumping. Well ladies and Gentlemen, Keith Doorway has hit 1,000 BASE jumps. So take that!

 
Just to clarify. This was originally done in June 2002 by Shane McConkey.

McConkey liked his rears too I guess haha

Plus I did the first rollover off a building (hotel balcony in Calgary) in June 2002 in case anyone else is trying to claim that ;-)

Congrats on your 1000!

k not getting it, he is not saying I invented the rollover he is making fun because I did a rollover without my brakes set so they blow off when you jump off

Ah gotcha .. fucked up rigging...not intentionally rolling over with hands holding onto unstowed toggles. Disregard.
