What Do You Do For Fun?

[macten]

I've done 2500+ skydives, 23 BASE jumps, sky surfed and got into free flying. Tried wing suits (12 years ago - nothing like how they are now), always rode super bikes ... but I can't even watch them crazy Russian kids doing one armed pull ups 300 ft up an antenna tower nor can I watch free climbers - makes my sphincter go all funny

have you heard of a guy called Mark Kirkby, Arizona Airmoves? he was my housemate for a few years and I was his best man when he married to get his "green card" haha,,,most succesful skydiver in the history of the world, along with Dan Brodski-Chenfield, who I was lucky enough to do a jump with too 🙂

I really want to get into skydiving. I can't get enough of those Jeb Corliss videos!

My hero was Olav Zipser from the FlyBoyz. He revolutionised skydiving by bringing free flying to all of us bored with regular box man formation work back in the 90s. Spent many months in Florida each xmas and new year for pretty much all of the 90s and blagged as many jumps with him as possible. What that bloke can do would make your jaw drop.

free flying and base just scare the crap outta me, only ever did 1 base (building, antennae, span, earth to the uninitiated), it was an "earth" here in lakes, talk about ground rush,,,I've not jumped for nearly 25 years now, but will get knees back in the breeze one day 🙂

Last time I went skydiving they gave me a rucksack instead of a parachute !! Pulled the strap and a box of sandwiches came out !!....thought it must be a long way down they've packed lunch..😉
