Rookie120 0 #1 March 30, 2006 I have done some looking around for the website for the class on Twin Falls ID but the website seems to no longer be in service. Any information on some base classes I could take around the ID CO area so I could bless myself with the experience I have read a lot about but hopefully now will be able to experience?If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

skypuppy 1 #2 March 30, 2006 You are a rookie alright! Suggest you spend some more time looking over this site, then you won't need to ask. Or pick up an (old) copy of Skydiving magazine and look at the ads.If some old guy can do it then obviously it can't be very extreme. Otherwise he'd already be dead.

TomAiello 26 #4 March 30, 2006 As mentioned above, Vertigo merged with Basic Research to create Apex BASE. Jimmy and Marta are actually here now teaching a course. The Apex instruction is all done out of the Moab office, so you'll pretty much get the Vertigo course when you sign up for the Apex one. I have yet to see an Apex course that did not have either Jimmy or Marta running it. The following BASE training programs provide instruction here in Twin Falls.

I know they've brought students here in the past, but I don't know what future plans exist. I've slightly changed the email addresses to protect folks from spam harvest programs. I've hyperlinked the web sites, if you want to check them out. My (current--it keeps changing) personal list of BASE training providers is attached to this post. That includes the programs that aren't teaching locally (Twin Falls).-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
