How To

How can I get started in Base Jumping

Base jumping (also known as free-fall parachuting) is a sport where participants jump from fixed objects (usually cliffs), such as bridges, towers, buildings, etc., without any equipment attached to them. The participant jumps off the object and uses their parachute to land safely. It is similar to skydiving, except that there is no requirement to wear a parachute, nor do you have to hold your breath while waiting to open it.

A wingsuit jumper is the most popular type of base jumper. A wingsuit is two pieces of fabric joined together. One piece covers your chest and arms while the other covers your legs. The jumper wears special boots that allow him/her to stand upright during flight. The jumper pulls on the straps to his/her feet to descend. This causes the material covering the legs and legs to bunch up. This creates a large air pocket underneath the jumper. The jumper can open his/her parachute if the air pocket is large enough and land safely.

Base jumpers can use powered suits in order to accelerate their speed through the air. The main components of powered suits include a backpack that contains batteries and a jacket with a jetpack. These packs contain small rockets that shoot jets of hot gas at high speeds. This creates thrust and propels the jumper ahead. However, these suits tend to be loud and heavy.

BASE jumping can be a dangerous sport. Make sure you fully understand the risks associated with learning BASE jumping. You can fall off a height, get hit head-on or upside-down, or collide and injure another jumper. Although BASE jumping isn't always dangerous, it can prove very dangerous if done incorrectly. Before you attempt to BASE jump, make sure you follow these safety tips.

You can start by learning BASE jumping skills on a smaller hill. Always take time to familiarize yourself with the terrain before jumping onto a larger hill. Watch out for weather conditions. Try to jump when the wind isn't blowing in your face. Foggy skies are another danger. If you can see more then 10ft ahead of you, you may need to wait for the clouds to clear. Make sure you have all the necessary gear. A helmet, goggles, gloves and a full-suit with a harness are all essential. Fourth, have a plan. Before leaving the ground, ask someone to follow you if something goes wrong. Don't jump alone. Always have another person watching over your back.
