Experience Requirements:
We are looking for experienced BASE jumpers that have consistently demonstrated good judgment with a sensible and cautious approach towards BASE jumping. They should be able to reliably jump without incident at our events.
Applicants will only be considered once they have all of the following:
• Completed at least 120 BASE jumps
• Made at least 20 BASE jumps within the previous 12 months
• Been actively BASE jumping for at least 2 years
In 2015 it only took 2 days to receive over 100 applications. We will consider all applications received over the next 2 weeks and 100 participants will be selected out of that. With 26 countries represented last year, that averages out to be about 4 per country.
Applications received after 2 weeks can expect at best to only be put on a standby list in case we receive many cancellations.
