Joellercoaster 6 #4 July 20, 2005 The picture of JaapSuter at exit with the book is comedy gold - he looks like he's just checking to see what he should do next in the manual -- "I'll tell you how all skydivers are judged, . They are judged by the laws of physics." - kkeenan "You jump out, pull the string and either live or die. What's there to be good at? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The authors firstname is Simon, forgot his last name. I'm not sure if the book is printed anymore? Thijs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rsibbald 0 #7 July 20, 2005 I believe Simon Jakeman wrote Groundrush, which is currently out of print. Keep an eye on E-bay and one comes up every few weeks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BASE813 0 #8 July 20, 2005 Groundrush by Simon Jakeman is (i think) a much better read than BASE66 BUT that maybe because he talks about UK BASE, and I have some attachment to the objects he writes about..................
