dmcoco84 5 #4 June 9, 2007 Climbing stuff... IDK He said (Pm quoted): QuoteWith PROTECTION/BELAY (i.e. Friends/Hex's+belayer) or totally free to the EP. Back when the Frat Boy types started invading rock climbing, my buddies and I started doing buildings in an effort to stay away from those homo's. One easy shit we would just "free" it, and on more difficult buildings we would use nuts/friends/slings for pro, with a second/belayer following the lead climber.

It must take a huge stretch of the imagination to picture one climbing a B (either out of necessity or desire) in order to jump it. Quote what is W/WO pro? Coco Got that one figured out now?

dmcoco84 5 #7 June 10, 2007 They're called stairs bro. And they are quite simple to use too. Look into that some time. But if you have some difficulty with them, check out this website: www.howstuffworks.com Coco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
inzite 0 #8 June 10, 2007 Climbing a B? Been there, done it. As, I'm sure, have a lot of others. But we only climbed to the 16th floor. Beyond the 16th we decided to take the stairs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Calvin19 0 #10 June 10, 2007 climbing the outside of a B is not only out of the question physicaly for a majority of BASE jumpers, it serves very little purpose unless in the middle of nowhere, and that is rare with a jumpable building. climbers 'buildering' usualy draws a lot of attention, from people inside and outside the building. not to good for keeping low profile at night.

460 0 #19 June 11, 2007 David Adcock climbed the exterior of a 970 foot building in downtown Houston in the 1980s. He wore a skydiving rig when he did it. That's incredible since one's balance is changed so much from wearing a rig. He did it twice. The first climb was at night. The second was at noon and he got into some legal trouble. At least he got the jump.Looks like a death sandwich without the bread - Steve Deadman Morrell, BASE 174 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

460 0 #21 June 11, 2007 He climbed it with some sort of strange gear involving glass handling suction cups. My friend has video of it. Buildings were so easy to get at the time that the consequences were minimal to the local community. Also, it was more of a stunt than the traditional stealth building jump. When he climbed it, the building manager kept removing windows to get him. He kept going around the windows. 20 feet from the top, all the cops and building people were on the top smiling and holding a sign that said "you are guilty of trespassing." He pulled a small wooden plank to use as an exit point. He stuck it between the 1 inch deep groove section that separates the floors. He climbed on it, looked back at the cops, gave them the finger, and then jumped. Unfortanately his platform broke but he came out OK. He opened high and flew a deliberate pattern to exhaust the police on foot. He tried to land on a parking garage but he missed. His witless friend tried to grab some of his lines as he passed which would have killed both of them. The cops got him and did the telephone book treatment on him. Quoting from a website: And as for the phone book -- "They hold the phone book to your face and they punch you. That way it doesn't leave bruises. What can you do? Complain?"Looks like a death sandwich without the bread - Steve Deadman Morrell, BASE 174 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
