BASE event in India
We are planning to organize a BASE event in India, at a very well known and readily accessible object. Currently planning it around Nov-Dec timeframe depending on the approvals. This poll is to gauge interest from the community to help us plan it better.

If you have specific ideas for the event, feel free to share the same.

Not sure if I understand your question. Do you want to be part of the organizing committee? It's an attempt by local jumpers to get things started in India. So not sure if we will be able to pay anyone.

Tom, to make things interesting, you will get Samosas if you land on target or throw in some weird aerial :)

In reply to:

Yes, it will give jumpers a lot of exposure for sure.

Re: [Mikki_ZH] BASE event in India
Nowadays east london is close to (very much resembles) new delhi/mumbai/calcutta-if that answers your question.

That's awkward for real because I know who you might be :)

I am a Skydiver and BASE jumper from India. We just finished our first Parachuting Championship in India at Amreli, Gujarat. Haven't heard anything from any of the Indian Skydivers or BASE jumpers about any BASE event in India. Though one of the Skydivers mentioned about a jump in Rajasthan. I think that's your jump.

I don't think any Indian BASE jumper was involved with this. How did your jump go?

Send me an email, cameron.fontenot1@gmail.com. you probably know the people I am working with and we are going for a much larger even than one object. 900 footer building in noida, pitampura tower, tallest bridge along chenab river and a very nice cliff in himachal. We should probably share ideas.
