Rollerblade Exit
Has anyone ever heard of a rollerblade exit being done on a BASE jump? Thinking along the same lines as ski BASE. Not planning to do it, just curious.

It's been done. I saw footage on some old BASE DVD of somebody doing it.

Blitz, you've got to admit it would be kinda fun...

I have some footage of it being done off the big bridge in France, I believe by the Soul Flyers guys.

Re: [seekfun] Rollerblade Exit
of course i was mostly joking...

but, that actually looks pretty fun.

it would be cooler if they were rocket powered.

Re: [blitzkrieg] Rollerblade Exit
I was thinking more along the lines of off a ramp. Rocket boosters work too.

I think the way that guy did it, he could have run just as fast.

And that's why roller blades are gay.

I may be mistaken but didn't somebody do this off of a big Californian antenna back in the day?

Re: [idemallie] Rollerblade Exit
And then there is the infamous Quidditch jump :-)

You know the hardest part about rollerblading?
Telling your parents you're gay...
