What about those who base jump but have never skydived? Should they take it up?
I have been a lot more current in the past thats for sure. This year is the first year since I started that I haven't averaged 200 skyjumps or more. My currency seems to have suffered due to BASE, groundlaunching,and Paragliding (not to mention school/life in general). If Im not skydiving its usually because of paragliding. I have days when I get to combine a few of the activities, and weekends when I can do all four, which is always good. Atleast Im still on some type of wing.

I think it'd be more interesting to see who keeps skydiving depending what they started skydiving for. I started skydiving solely to start BASE jumping, which is why I'm not very interested in it unless I'm training skills for BASE. I think it'd be more likely that someone would keep skydiving if they didn't decide to start BASE until later in their skydiving career.
You are probably exactly correct on this one.
I didn't start skydiving to get into BASE, so continuing to skydive was natural for me.

I don't jump for the rush, I jump for the challenge of achieving things I didn't think were personally possible.
As long as BASE and skydiving keep offering me ways to challenge myself, I will be doing both.
