You fuckin' little nutter.
Kudos, Cass, tbh. I can't do heights at all, so I completely balk at the idea of hurling myself out of a plane tucked up into a ball.
Does look pretty sweet though...

Nice man, id love to give that a go! Notice the camera man keep looking at his altimeter, i wonder why.
Re: Finally uploaded my Skydive vid.
Vard, it's a great way of getting over your fear of heights, just bear in mind I was still shitting myself after 28 jumps
It's one of them ticks in the box of things to do in life!!
Rob, his needle was probably stuck

Re: Finally uploaded my Skydive vid.
awsome were did you do your training and how much did it cost? This is next on my list of sports to take up. Do you use your own shoots and do you pack them yourself?
Looks like awsome fun, dont you do gliding as well how dos it compaire? I do hangliding and love it but fancy somthing a bit faster

Re: Finally uploaded my Skydive vid.
I did my training at Netheravon in Wiltshire. It didn't cost me anything to get qualified (perks of the job) but it's getting expensive now. Check out their website for prices http://www.netheravon.com/prices.htmlrene wrote:awsome were did you do your training and how much did it cost? This is next on my list of sports to take up.

I use chutes from the DZ which costs £12, and yes I pack myself now (makes it cheaper as you get a fiver back)
It is awesome fun and yes I did do gliding. Haven't done it for ages. Gliding is nice and relaxing as you will be able to imagine. I just found it was hard to progress in gliding as you had to put a lot of time and effort in and licences took a lot longer to obtain. With skydiving you can progress quicker. I will go back to gliding eventaully when I get a bit old for skydiving, but at the moment the skydiving is really flicking my switch!!
Try it even if for the tick in the box of things to do in life. I'm looking at trying hanggliding and paragliding next!
Tyrant ..... no B.A.S.E video's ..... that's for nutters

There are some amazing base videos around on the net.

Wicked video ... certainly makes wing suiting a spectator sport
