RE: Best BASE JUMPING Video you have ever seen!!! - The Real Oktoberfest!

in #halloween6 years ago

Thanks for your kind words!
Yes some jumps we used a 'static line' so the parachute opens as soon as we jump. Other jumps we went 'handheld', where we hold the pilot chute and throw it after 1 - 2 seconds so we get to experience that freefall feeling.
Some of the other jumps are called 'unpacked jumps' where the parachute is out already, these are fun jumps to do, so we did a great mix of jumps in the 4 day trip :-)

Sort:  

Is there any advantage or disadvantage of the static line, handheld or unpacked jumps? Like for newbie versus pro maybe?
