Friday Freakout: Bridle Wrap. Bag Lock. Oh F*CK!
Reaching around in a wingsuit to pull your pin when your bridle is wrapped around your hackey is a bit of a joy-killer. As is the resulting bag lock. Luckily for Walker Mackey his reserve plays nice and comes out clean. Bet that brought a smile to his face! Watch Video »

During the HYPOXIC Summer Boogie Tour, our friend Trunk managed to convince a plane full of bikini-wearing chicks to straddle a massive inflatable pecker in freefall… but he almost gets taken out by the projectile.

Um, we can all agree that Yves “Jetman” Rossy is a total badass, right? Okay cool. Well he keeps upping his game, from controlled barrel rolls and flying loops around hot air balloons, to the world’s first flight beside a passenger aircraft — the Breitling DC-3.

Jackass: Skydiver Jumps Without Parachute. WTF?!
Scott Plamer and Mick are two of my wonderful friends, and I remember when this was happening. I definitely thought Plamer was a INSANE for doing it, but that’s only because I love him and didn’t want to see him go in. I mean, holy shit, jumping WITHOUT a parachute??? Seriously, what if it doesn’t... Watch Video »

Getting femured sucks, especially when you’re not even swooping. If you’re going to play chicken with the earth, just remember that it will win. Every time. What exactly happened here? Did he grab his front risers too low? Discuss. Watch Video »
Blast From The Past: Legendary Skysurfing By Rob H...
Blast from the past for sure! Legendary skysurfer, Rob Harris, filmed by equally legendary videographer, Joe Jennings.

Have you ever seen two video angles from one GoPro on the same jump? Well now you have. And it’s a pretty cool idea. Mike Fenton and friends complete a fun 4-way Hybrid over Skydive Burnaby. Nothing says “I’ve docked on your back” like a gentle kick to the head (around the 0:25 mark). Watch Video »
Friday Freakout: Reserve Malfunction? Rip It Out.....
Whether you’re a skydiver or BASE jumper, PCA (Pilot Chute Assist) deployments can be fun. But it kinda sucks when you have to manually extract your reserve because it’s stuck in the container. I think the silver lining is that he was already on his back, which made it easier to spot the malfunction and... Watch Video »
