Head Down Happiness
Mike, Bill and Dave flying a head down exit out of the caravan at Skydive Burnaby in Wainfleet, Ontario. This reminds me of the head down hottie pic I posted last month. Photo via Bill Ackford. What’s your favorite style of skydiving or BASE jumping that puts a smile on your face? View Photo »
Rollerblades + BASE Jumping = Roller-BASE
So you’ve seen an insane avalanche ski-BASE jump by Matthias Giraud, skydiving in a kayak (aka skyaking) by Miles Daisher, and skydiving with roller skates by Freakfly. But what about roller-BASE… BASE Jumping with rollerblades? That’s a first for me, and I’m lovin’ it! Why didn’t I think of that? Watch Video »
S.A.F.E = Stupid And F**king Extreme
What could possibly go wrong? Anthony White — a newbie to big wall BASE jumping, with a hangover — takes Lonnie Bissonnette — a paraplegic — for a ride on a big wall BASE jump in Norway. Next time, I want to see you do this blindfolded Anthony! Photo via Lonnie Bissonnette. View Photo »
Mr. Bill + Velocity 96 = 4.1 Wingload
What do you get when you pull off a Mr. Bill on a PD Velocity 96? A fast canopy with a 4.1 wingload. I've posted a few Mr. Bills in the past: the popular Friday Freakout which goes horribly wrong (watch here: http://bit.ly/ik1zO9), one that goes horribly right (watch here: http://bit.ly/jKkydR), and the human slingshot on first attempt (watch: http://bit.ly/nIhp6L). Which of those clips is your fave? Watch Video »
Big Wall BASE Exit

BASE Jumping Ninjas
Fred Fugen of the Soul Flyers and Jean-Francois Huck are BASE jumping ninjas-in-training. Real ninjas don’t have shadows — like Chuck Norris. Photo via Fred Fugen. View Photo »

Pass The Dutchie Up The Freefly Line
Clearly Mike was thinking about more important things on this freefly jump at Skydive Burnaby. Photo by Bill Ackford. Let’s all play sing-along in the comments, one line at a time. I’ll start… “This generation rules the nation, with version…” View Photo »
Funny "Planking" Skydive Exit
In an attempt to outdo the flying crane exit, Nasser Al Neyadi pulled off a new “planking” skydive exit over the Palm Islands at Skydive Dubai. I assume he climbed on the roof and slid off — kind of like a slip ‘n slide from 13,000 feet. How fun! You should also check out video... View Photo »
Flying Crane Exit... On Tracking Dive?
Instead of diving out of the Skyvan head-first like the rest of his friends, Marc “The Ninja” Pinault thought he’d show off his flying crane technique on exit for a tracking skydive at Parachute School of Toronto (PST). Photo by Freakfly. Great form buddy. I give this exit (the flying crane) an 8.5. On a... View Photo »
Human Slingshot On First Mr. Bill Attempt
Andrew Revesz pulled off his first Mr. Bill exit to celebrate his 100th jump at Skydive Burnaby, which made for an awesome human slingshot once he “ejected” at 8,000 feet. According to my calculations, a “first” Mr. Bill + 100th jump = 2 cases of beer… and a dirty pie to the face! Fortunately this... Watch Video »

9-Way BASE Jump Off Building
Can you believe 9 guys — all wearing the same outfit — pulled off this BASE jump?! They should’ve just used time-lapse photography instead. This reminds me of The Matrix: Swooping pic I posted last month. Photo via Spirito Gitano. View Photo »
The GoPro Bomb Squad Debut
Ladies and gents, I present to you GoPro’s new aerial team… GoPro Bomb Squad. The team consists of Marshall Miller, Neil Amonson and Jesse Hall (and maybe others?). Keep your eyes peeled for more badass photos and videos from the Bomb Squad. Photo by Neil Amonson in Norway. View Photo »
Friday Freakout: We've Got A Screamer
This girl is still game for her tandem jump, but she screams her ass off on the way to the door. This is a pretty tame “screamer” compared to the grown man crying before his tandem or the woman freaking out on her tandem exit. What do you think… at what point should a tandem... Watch Video »
Crazy Kids Jumpin' Off Cliffs
Crazy kids nowadays. If all your friends told you to jump off a cliff, would you? That’s what I thought :) A great perspective as Anders follows his friends off exit 6 in Kjerag, Norway. Photo by Anders Lau Nielsen. View Photo »
Mr. Bill Goes Horribly Right
You remember the Friday Freakout: Mr. Bill goes horribly wrong video, right? That was a shit show. Well this Mr. Bill goes horribly right! Wait for it… Watch Video »
