Re: [Hanzo] Wingsuit base rodeo
I saw a photo of a wing suit BASE rodeo on the wall of a rigger's loft in Italy one time. I think the photo was taken more than a decade ago...but it's hard to remember exactly when.

Yah I watched that one in person. That was quite the year at KL. Anyone know if special tom is still around and jumping?


Hanzo, I again thank you for posting something you ran across on YouTube and were amazed by. At least this one wasn’t Chase again, or videos of a jumper who died years ago you just heard of. Google dwain Weston and then start a new thread, he was pretty rad.

I saw him at the local DZ about 5 years ago but I think he has long moved on.
On the WS Rodeo thing, the first one I saw was in about 2004 from Kjerag, the passenger was a Kiwi girl known as Mouse who showed me the video, not sure who the WS pilot was.

All fun until someone pops a pin and you get a horseshoe with a base rig having dynamic corners. Messy.

Re: [skibumhass] Wingsuit base rodeo
That was actually the second attempt for Tom a kL. There was actually a decent attempt earlier, but this was far more spectacular. My favorite part is that they picked him out of the trees, and he was geared up on exit in his wingsuit maybe an hour later until organizers said nope. 2010 was an interesting KL in terms of carnage.
