    I was hoping no one found this video of me. I didn't want everyone knowing I have brass B...S.

    I saw this at a Warren Miller Show last year and it was awesome on the big screen.

    Beautiful vid @Botch.

    Was hanging out in my skydiving instructor's RV on a boogie weekend at Skydive Chicago watching pro skydiving videos one rainy afternoon.  Every video that came on, "Yeah, this person died during a board jump".  "This one died from a mal(parachute malfunction)." 

    You need thousands of jumps before they will let you go up in a wingsuit.   

    A few of my jumpin' buddies would swoop and skim the pond in Rantoul, IL at the World Freefall Convention, awesome stuff.  I was happy to land on my feet. lol

    Here is a cool vid of the head down world record summer of 2012.

     If you think eggheads can drink, try hanging out with a bunch of skydivers at a boogie or Rantoul. lol
