Extreme Skydiving

Archive for December, 2010

Video of your jump can be purchased at the following prices:

* Video–$69
A relatively fixed, inside angle, but with the jumper’s initial reaction to freefall captured once the parachute opens.
Portions of the parachute ride are also included. All made possible by the creative use of a wrist camera, worn by the instructor.

* Special Video–$109
In this video, we employ another skydiver–a professional freefall videographer–to artfully film your skydive, providing you with various outside angles, broader, all around views of the striking landscape, and you the jumper. With this video, you’ll also receive FREE still photos.

are the 2 types of videos. I have an idea of what the 109 dollar one is but i was wondering if anyone could find a video of that first one with the wrist camera, i cant seem to find one

With a wrist camera on the instructor (assuming tandem dive) will see about what you see. There might be a closeup of your face, but it will be upside down. The video will be fairly jerky, since the arms move about more than would a helmet mounted cam. Sorry, I don’t have any skydiving links, and can;t find the ones from snowboarding.

Spend the extra money and get the special video. I have an example of the second one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQWpCJ6bobc

How many parents get their kids inot stuff like snowboarding/skydiving to avoid drugs/joyriding?

Ie get them into extreme sports activities to pre empt them trying to prove themselves and get kicks from drugs, gangs, fights, joyriding etc.

Ie natural highs… plus culture into non violence and looking out for each other.
The point in extreme alterntive sports as opposed to say cricket.

Is these knes are seen as wilder, more thrilling, element of controlled danger, csn be specatular, brave etc.

ie not chicken, not boring say if others wna them to do say shoplifting, joyriding, drugs, booze…

Kid can say boring… ? look my dad takes me skydiving… takes much more guts, more fun and more exciting.

Plus as said unlike football suring, snowboarding etc is all about hippy like values of peace, environment and stuff like that dude

How many parents keep going on about the same thing over and over again?

I have a video of my skydiving on a cd. HOw do I save it onto my computer? When I put the cd in, I only have the option of playing it.

right click on the video, choose copy.
then go to the Videos folder in my documents right click on white space n choose copy.

Im interested in shooting guns, Hangliding, Skydiving, mountain climbing and and martial arts and anything else of that nature. I just moved to Pennsylvania and I dont really know where I can go to do those things as a beginner. Is there a boot camp that incorporates some or all of the above mentioned?

Before saying anything I have to tell you that there are even women who do this kind of extreme sports. To be more specific, soon after I do some skydiving jumps I am planning to start BASE jumping. What would women believe about me once I tell them I am this kind of person? Would they go away just so they don`t feel guilty if I ever die in one of the jumps?

they R weird, so dont pay attention, they just gonna say U R insane, crazy, suicidal… if they like U, they like U, if not just let ‘em go… I always hear that I have a death wish, but I live another day, just to show ‘em how wrong they R…

My friend and I are going to be in The Airfield Clonbullogue, Tullamore, Co Offaly, Ireland? we skydive for a living and will be working at the skydiving center for 2 weeks. do you know of any cheap bed and breakfast close to the airport? and we are looking for a couple clubs to party at (with a lot of girls!!! ) can you please help me out? and give me any tips

Well, you might find accommodation, but not sure about the women and the parties.

all i have thought of is bungee jumping, white water rafting, going up in a hot air balloon, anything else?

Hang gliding
rock climbing
street luge
deep sea fishing
parasailing
Swim with sharks

downhill longboard racing (my favorite)
