How can I get started in Base Jumping

Base jumping, also called free-fall parachuting, is a sport in which participants jump from fixed objects, such as cliffs, bridges, towers, and buildings, without any equipment. 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.

The most common type is a wingsuit jumping suit. A wingsuit consists of two pieces, each piece of fabric being sewn together. The chest, arms and legs are covered by one piece and the legs by the other. Special boots allow the jumper to stand straight during flight. Jumpers pull the straps that attach to their feet tightly during descent. The material covering the legs will bunch up and create a large pocket under the body. When the air pocket grows large enough, jumpers can open their parachute to land safely.

Base jumpers can use powered suits in order to accelerate their speed through the air. A backpack containing batteries and an under-cloth jet pack are the two main components of powered suits. 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 can be heavy and loud.

BASE jumping is not for everyone. It is important to understand the risks involved in BASE jumping before you attempt to learn. There are several ways to die while doing BASE jumping: you could fall off a steep cliff, hit an obstacle head-on, upside down or collide with another jumper. BASE jumping, while not always dangerous is dangerous. However, it can be very dangerous if done improperly. These safety tips will help you avoid injury when BASE jumping.

First, practice safe BASE jumping techniques by practicing on a smaller hill. You should always take a few minutes to get comfortable with the terrain before jumping off a larger one. Pay attention to weather conditions. If the wind isn’t blowing, don’t jump. Also, avoid foggy skies. If you see more than 10 feet ahead of yourself, then you might need wait until the cloud clears. The third thing you should do is make sure that you have all the gear. A helmet, goggles, gloves and a full-suit with a harness are all essential. Fourth, make sure you have a plan. Ask someone to join you if things go wrong before you leave the ground. Don't ever jump by yourself. Always have someone to watch over you.
