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.
