3 years of basejumping - revue compilation
I've been registered to this forum since 2006 way before I started base jumping and when this forum was still a subsection of dropzone.com. I haven't been posting much, but this one I'm really excited to share with you. ..And here come some wicked BASE porn for all of you to enjoy: The best moments of my whole base jumping carreer - 3 years, 250 jumps (0 injuries), 3 different countries, loads of high performance tracking, lots of multiways, aerials and lowpulls, some really stupid jumps, a couple of near misses and close calls, seen 1 guy die 1st hand, lost a few friends, found a lot of really good friends, plenty of drunken nights at the horner and many great moments I will never forget.. I'm sure this will put a smile on your face, if not I don't know what will haha..
Please share this if you enjoyed it!

Sascha Masters, mein inoffizieller Mentor und wahrscheinlich der coolste und professionellste Springer und Mensch den ich kenne, der trotz allem immer bescheiden und auf dem Boden geblieben ist. Einer meiner besten Freunde seit ich 2006 mit dem Fallschirmspringen angefangen hab. Werde nie vergessen wie ich mich vor Angst kaum bewegen konnte, als du uns 2007 zum ersten mal mit auf Yellow Ocean genommen hast um zuzuschauen.
My inofficial Mentor and propably the most awesome and professional jumpers I know, yet always humble and down to earth. I will never forget the time your took us to Yellow Ocean and I got so scared that I was unable to move haha.. One of my best friends since I started parachuting in 2006
Matthew Fattal: Wenn ihr wüsstet wo dieser Mensch herkommt und was er in seinem Leben durchgemacht hat, dann muss man einfach nur seinen Hut davor ziehen was er aus seinem Leben gemacht hat!!! Haben zusammen unsere ersten Base Sprünge gemacht und viele unvergessliche Momente zusammen erlebt. Definitiv einer meiner allerbesten Freunde und auch mit eins meiner größten Idole!
If you knew where this guy comes from and what he's been through, it's simply amazing what he's turned his life into! We did our first base jumps together and had many unbelievable shared experiences. Definitely one of my very best friends and one of the people I look up to the most!
Marcus Bruse: Für lange Zeit mein bester Sprungpartner. Der wahrscheinlich unvergesslichster Sprung meiner BASE Jump Karriere war mit ihm von einem Wolkenkratzer in Frankfurt (außen hochgeklettert) . Wir hatten wirklich ne sehr schöne Zeit zusammen und ich hoffe wir sehen uns mal wieder öfters!
My partner in crime for along time. Many unfogetable jumps.. the best one was off a scyscraper in Frakfurt at night, where we did a totally insane outside climb and almost got cought.. never been so scared.
Ben aka Alex Derden: The thing I said about Sascha applies to you aswell!!! I'm really glad I got to know you and I will never forget that night before your big wedding day when we did the windmill jump and went parting all night afterwards hahahaha
Adrian Witzenmann-krell: Ich muss immer noch lachen wenn ich an den Tag zurück denke wo ich dich das erste mal in Lauterbrunnen gesehen hab und du mich gefragt hast ob ich dir paar Exit points zeigen kann. Definitiv mein bester Trackingpartner. Haben zusammen ein paar fantastische Sprünge erlebt und ich freue mich drauf dich mal wieder zu sehen!
I still have to laugh when I think about the day i saw you the first tie in lauterbrunnen and you asked me If I could show you the exit points. My best tracking partner and we have had some fantastic jumps together. Hope to see you again soon.
Libby Sherwood, Those days on the Eiger were simply awesome and amazing. When I saw you again after 2 years, you reminded me about what I really liked about basejumping the most and what I had kind of lost at some point: especially really being in the moment and the Zen aspect about it.
Tony Vilko und Rami Kajala: You guys were really so cool and heplful to me early in my base carreer when some other people were avoiding going to the same exit point as me, because I was this crazy guy going to the High Nose with 3 base jumps overall haha. Great tracking jumps in the winter of 2009/10
Trond Bjelde: Dude, I wish you were still here to read this. I really enjoyed the time with you in Springtime 2012. Some wicked crazy jumps haha! Your death was a punch in the stomach to me! Fly free bro!
Ted Davenport: Do you remember that insane jump we did off the ice covered High Ultimate, before the ramp was built.. and everybody on the load was freaked out about how close we all came to crashing into the underhung cliff part under the exit? haha Fun times
Steve (forgot your last Name): It was really fun to watch your progress in tracking as the years went by untill you finally tracked over the road at High Nose!
Reiner Ebert: Fun times in the Winter of 2010. Thanks for giving me the heads up at the horner bar that one night about my jumping. It really got to me at some point.
Til Waldt einige tolle Windrad Sprünge, hab schon lange nix mehr von dir gehört.. lass uns mal quatschen.. werde nie vergessen wie wir die alte Karre von deinen Eltern so gequält haben um rechtzeitig von der Brücke zurück zu kommen hahahahahahaha
Fabien Clerc my first and only unintendet tracking flyby during a base jump
And special thanks to my family and non jumping friends who kept reminding me about the other things life has to offer and about how insane and dangerous base jumping may seem and be, which probably kept me alive after all.
Cheers and greetz to everybody I forgot to mention!
