r/basejumping

I have struggled my entire life to find anything that ever made me feel the way i do about this. If possible, i would simply appreciate any information available about where i can go for possibly free advice and where to get the basic harness and chute etc that is trusted.

Just saying, im a professional vagabond, so i can hitchhike my way anywhere if they are able and willing to teach or help. Im currently in AZ so i know there are places to do it but im 100% out of the loop, so again, any advice is welcome, this is just a general inquiry.

Whats the fun in reaching the top if you cant jump off?

I am an australian base jumper currently visiting moab, and hoping to meet some people to jump with.

A friend of mine gave me some names of exit points - jay Leno, mangoes, patriot mesa and the queen.

This is my first time in moab, so I don't know where any exit points are.

I have around 70 jumps, the last being digler near salt lake city on saturday - to clarify any confusion

Thanks

What laser do you guys recommend getting for low objects? Just need a single point for height of buildings 200-700 ft tall. Don’t need to make maps for wing suits.

Hi everyone, I’m taking a very serious interest in wingsuit aerodynamics in order to find a solution that will significantly reduce the risk of death or serious injury. By “the right solution,” I mean improving flying techniques and the aerodynamic shape of wingsuits. However, my knowledge of wingsuits and flying techniques comes only from pictures and videos, so it’s very important for me to hear different perspectives from experienced pilots here.

The more I learn about flying and wingsuits, the more convinced I become that I’ve already found some effective solutions that will help prevent accidents to some extent. However, these are still only theoretical solutions that will need to be carefully verified through practical steps (tests, measurements, etc.). Nevertheless, I am increasingly convinced that my efforts are becoming more and more meaningful. I would love to start the practical process right now, because I am certain it will yield the expected results.

To begin this practical process, the only thing missing is the opportunity to hear the opinions of experienced pilots here regarding the challenges of flying. So, if any of you believe that something about the wingsuit could be improved, or have ideas on how the flight should proceed—from takeoff to parachute deployment—I will give serious consideration to each of your opinions. Of course, I welcome any opinions (you can also send them as a private message), whether based on your own knowledge, experience, or even just information you’ve heard from friends. Your opinions are also important for those who are just beginning to learn about all the challenges of WBJ. I’ll be very grateful for every opinion you share here (i.e., your answer to the opening question), and I thank you in advance!

Hey guys, im planning to do FJC soon, and hopefully get into this beautiful sport. and I want to purchase a base rig.
Budget is not a problem, I want the best that i can get.
Which containers, and canopies are the best and why?
In terms of reliability, performance,fit and other aspects such as wingsuit/tracking compatibility.
