How To
What is the best way to start base jumping?
Base jumping (also called free-fall Parachuting) allows participants to jump from fixed objects (usually cliffs), including bridges, towers and buildings, with no equipment attached. The participant uses their parachute safely to land from the object. 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 is the most common type base jumper. A wingsuit is made of two pieces of fabric sewn together. One piece covers chest and arms, while the second one covers the legs. Special boots are worn by the jumper that allow him/her stand upright in 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. This air pocket will grow large enough to allow the jumper to open his/her parachute, and safely land.
Some base jumpers use powered suits to help propel themselves through the air faster. The two main components to powered suits are a backpack filled with batteries and a undercloth that houses a jetpack. These small rockets shoot hot gas jets at high speeds from these packs. This creates thrust that propels the leaper forward. These suits are loud and heavy, however.
Some people who want to try out BASE jumping don't know what they're getting into. It is important to understand the risks involved in BASE jumping before you attempt to learn. There are many ways that you can die from this activity, including falling off a rock, colliding with another person, or hitting an obstacle head on or upside down. BASE jumping, while not always dangerous is dangerous. However, it can be very dangerous if done improperly. To avoid injury, check out the following safety tips before attempting to BASE jump.

Pay attention to weather conditions. Make sure the wind doesn't blow in your face when you jump. Foggy skies should be avoided. If your vision is less than 10ft in front of you, you may need a break until the clouds clear. You should also ensure you have the correct gear. It is important to have proper gear. Fourth, ensure you have a plan. For any problems, have someone else follow you. Never, ever jump alone. Always have someone to watch over you.
