boo85040 0 #2 April 7, 2001 I always liked Point Break. I dropped by in cottonwood, near Sadona, AZ today to make a jump but the winds were too high. Great bunch of people there though. I was going to stay the night and try and get a jump in Sat. but not sure how the weather will be so I will probably head out to Coolidge tomorrow and try and get some video jumps in.Gotta go home soon so better get the jumps in.

Viking 0 #5 April 7, 2001 here ya go dude Skydiving Movies but really the only two Hollywood Movies that are about skydiving Dropzone with Wesly Snipes Terminal Velocity with Charlie Shean Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patkat 0 #6 April 7, 2001 Y'all need to check out "Fandango." Sure, it's not entirely a skydiving movie, but neither is "Point Break."Sure, it stars Kevin Costner, but look at the stars in those other skydiving movies: Keanu Reeves, Wesley Snipes, Charlie Sheen, Stephen Baldwin... not Hollywood's finest. Not the worst, but not the finest either, IMHO. And it is by far the most amusing yet accurate depiction of skydiving instruction ever committed to film. And by the way, my endorsement of the skydiving portion of this movie in no way carries over to the rest of this film. I'm gonna let you all decide for yourself whether you like that sort of late-seventies dreck.Blues, Patkat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tigra 0 #7 April 7, 2001 I'm with PatKat. Fandango is a must see! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deleted 0 #8 April 7, 2001 Hmm.. I kindof liked Cutaway. Pointbreak and Terminal Velocity had better plots though. But, I'm with Tigra - the skydiving cuts from Fandago where tops. Gotta check it out! There are some clips on FandangoCheers,NewGuy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
