WS BASE Rodeo
Its 2017, I"m wondering if this will be the year of the first WS BASE rodeo. We've evolved a lot over the years, and keep doing more and more epic stuff for videos. I think the next step of epicness would be the first wingsuit BASE rodeo. Lets do it 2017. Basejumper.com - archive

indeed. i love the shadows blanketing the trees as they open. Amazing that (IIRC) nobody so far has died on KL Tower.
Re: [spoofqueen] WS BASE Rodeo
There's a rigger near Brento who has a photo of a BASE wing suit rodeo on the wall of his loft. I believe the photo was taken in 2006, but I might have the year wrong.

I think the best part might have been that special tom was back up, packed and ready in his wingsuit about 30 min later until he was talked out of it. He was quite special.
Re: [hjumper33] WS BASE Rodeo
I was there for his first cliff jumps. Never thought he would make it out of this game alive. Special Tom for the win!

LOL... I didn't know who that was but it was pretty obvious during the interview that he was definitely "special..."

that's what i thought. I remember that one -- PC bridle snagged on her go-pro mount, not enough altitude left after she cleared it.
kudos to Gary C for keeping everyone but her alive all these years.

Julian Boulle did the first one a couple of years before that in Norway, approx. 2003

Is there photo proof? Julian says he did a lot of things "first" so he can jerk people's chain with that deliciously twisted spec ops sense of humor he has.

Re: [base44] WS BASE Rodeo
Well geez, don't that make me look like an idiot. I just ASSUMED it had never been done in the BASE environment, but we all know what happens when you assume. Well then, How about in 2017, someone jumps off a high cliff without a rig, only for 2 other people fly up to him/her in free fall to put a rig on and then pull... much like Travis Pastrana did out of the airplane... But BASE!!!
Dont tell me this has been done already!!!!!

Re: [spoofqueen] WS BASE Rodeo
It has been done skydiving well before Pastrana was a glimpse in his father's eye.
Re: [spoofqueen] WS BASE Rodeo
It did make you look like an idiot, then you went straight back in for more. Cant wait for your 3rd post

If number 3 is about flaming canopies I might litterally die laughing... then resurrect myself to hear Colin explain how this entire thread is toms fault to begin with.

Reminds me of all the times I've heard a story begin with "I opened this ___ in ____. It's 2017 now you probably didn't open it unless it's under construction or Brendan Mchugh never lived there.
