Where can I find a base jumping parachute blueprint/sketch?
Hello everyone,

I am here because I am making a video game about base jumping. I am not familiar with actual differences between the skydiving parachute and base jumping one, and i have no experience with base jumping, so I wanted to see if anyone knows where i could find some blueprints of base jumping parachutes to use as inspiration for the game. It would be easier than to recreate it off of pictures, and will look more correct in the end.

Thanks.

google search contact information for any of the base canopy manufacturers, ATAIR, apex, consolidated rigging, badseed base, etc.

Oh, i assumed there would be some public blueprints somewhere. Like something by (and for) enthusiasts who study that kind of stuff, make their own different models to try what behaves best. Nothing like that..?

Hm, i would assume a company would not be willing to share their business' properties... Unimpressed

Well, the cat gets out of the bag when you let someone see the product.

Luckily for you I happen to have one for sale in the classified ads here that once you buy, you can do what you want with.

Well there is one design I been keeping hush hush . It's been long kept secret but there has been a long awaited secret Parachute design that was recently released from government secret classification threw the freedom of public information act .
Sadly much of the highly technical research of this Parachute design remains redacted and not visible, but I think the main design and schematic can be plainly interpreted for building an efficient BASE Parachute .

ray your aeronautical engineering skills are impressive. could you scale those canopies blueprints down, though, to accomadate a canopy for a little person?

ive been banging out a HOT ass stripper midget (and shes got a NASTLY little coke habit (get it i said "little")), and shes highly impressed with BASE and wants to get into the sport. i told her id help her in getting a rig and canopy setup. the actual container ive already got in the works, her MLW will have to be slightly altered because shes got wide hips and a nice bootie.

i must be careful though - these midgets, they like to get together and they gossip, know what i mean? the last thing we need is a bunch of them getting together and giving stratton oakmont a bad name..

I know man, those little mutants like there gossip . I was at a Tit-Bar the other day and easdropped on some nasty gosip being spewed by Peter Dinklage and apparently he has nothing nice to say about stratton oakmont either. He was gossiping in a drunken Midgets rage . 'Dink' (that what his friends call him) . Dink was also bitching about how he has suffered for years trying to find a Harness container with proper cut for the little people also .

You know what ? I would pay a weeks wage to see Peter Dinklage take that Midget Stripper on a Tandem BASE .
