The BASE Dream Team in China
More stunning BASE footage from the Dream Team’s trip to China, as seen from Douggs’ perspective. This is just as much fun as Matt Gerdes’ Chinese Scenes edit and Jeb Corliss’ historic wingsuit flight through Tianmen Hole in China. Watch Video »
Czech, Czech... 3, 2, 1
Once the chopper is gone, the only way down the Eiger is to jump. If this edit from the Czech BASE Team is good enough for GoPro’s Video of the Day, then it’s good enough for us. Watch Video »
Fall Sessions: Shadow Play
You know you’re pushing the limits of wingsuit proximity flying when you can high-five your own shadow. Then again, that’s not so hard. I just high-fived my own shadow, but it was against the wall with the help of my desk lamp. Watch Video »
Friday Freakout: Wingsuit Strikes Cliff
Considering the alternatives, this BASE jumper couldn’t have asked for a better outcome. Well, aside from not hitting the cliff at all. If you’re going to walk, err, fly away from a cliff strike without a scratch, the least you can do is pack your rig while waiting for air rescue and do a heli... Watch Video »

Fly Like Brick: Aerobatic Wingsuit Flying
Aerobatic wingsuit flying is kinda like figure skating. Except it’s way more badass with a wingsuit in the sky instead of skates and glitter. Never mind. It’s nothing like figure skating.

Unofficial Vertical Wingsuit Formation Record
This was the vertical wingsuit record attempt at Skydive Carolina in September 2011. Although it was the largest vertical wingsuit formation flown so far, it’s an unofficial record because the USPA doesn’t have a category for vertical formations yet. Photo by Richard Schneider. View Photo »
Wingsuiting Ninja
Hayden Galvin — founder of 5D Wingsuit School — looks like a wingsuiting ninja in his slick skydiving gear, although I don’t think anyone can look more badass than the Sky Jester (sorry Hayden :-). Hayden’s 5D Wingsuit School was coaching a 4-day advanced wingsuit camp at the Bridgewater Dropzone in Victoria, Australia. Photo by... View Photo »

Taking The Leap
Sacrebleu! A stunning overhead shot of Matthias Giraud as he counts down before taking the leap off an exit point on Mount Baring.

You can also check out Robert’s last six... Watch Video »
