I am very careful mate. I prepare my own schute, and I prepare my own jump site and I do my own atmosphere checks. I've based jumped more than 20 times, and I know what I'm doing. But, if it wasn't dangerous it wouldn't be fun.

Thanks, I'll try.

Don't say that, I know guys that I used to jump with who've had to have amputations from crazy stuff like that!

Yes, I have, and I'd like to go sometime, but I don't have five days to waste.

Well, it is the biggest rush I've ever gotten from anything, so I think that it's worth it.

Yes, it is very much more dangerous. Base Jumping is where you jump off something very big with a parachute on. It's more fun and dangerous than ski diving, because you only have a split second to react and deploy your schute. Also, there is a chance that you could knock into whatever you...

sky diving is for adrenealine junky amatuers. I am really into base jumping. That is really awesome.

That is one of the differences, the other is how much more fun it is. Snow boarding fun alright, but mountain boarding is so much more dangerous. I love it.

It is indeed dangerous, but that is most of the fun.

You sound (I'm mostly imagining) skeptical.

hmm...did I forget to mention that this done on steep sides of mountains at extremely high speeds?

I have discovered a "new" sport called mountain boarding. It is like skate boarding except off-road. You use a snow board type thing with four big tires attached to it. It is a lot of fun. Has anyone else tried it?
