NickDG 23 #3 January 24, 2022 What bugs me is even a cursory search of the internet would have showed you the name 'BASELog" is the name of a logbook I designed in 1989. You really should have used another name, or at least asked my permission first. Here is the first BASElog and I've sold around 100 of these over the years. And I know a few people still using them.

You can use the app without permission to access the location. We don't work with any government agencies. And won't. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NickDG :-) BASE194 Sorry man. We have not found any information about your BASELog. But there are several different BASE logs on the Internet. We don't see any legal reason to argue:) We're doing a useful thing for basejumpers, as you are. We'd appreciate it if you wouldn't mind us using that name.

No one does that but me. :-) Try the app first. I’m sure you won’t be upset. TomAiello is right. In Russia we haven’t ever heard about “NPS” (whatever it is). Maybe “manage” is not the right word, sorry for my English. The app allows you not to “take care” of your riggs, but to know their “condition”: how many jumps you made with it, when you made the previous jump with it, what the object it was… Edited January 25, 2022 by BASE Logbook Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomAiello 26 #10 January 25, 2022 NPS is the National Park Service in the USA, which is a government organization that has spent considerable time (and taxpayer monies) chasing after BASE jumpers. To people who've never had to deal with them, old school American jumpers may seem paranoid. But to those of us who've had the pleasure, it honestly seems pretty warranted. I know for certain (i.e. we had a phone conversation in which one admitted it) that NPS law enforcement employees have made logins on this forum to track jumpers, then followed links to videos to find sites to arrest jumpers. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BASE Logbook 0 #11 January 25, 2022 (edited) Yes, the “paranoia” is understandable... In our country there is no hunting, but basejumping is not the “calmest” thing either (5 or 11 days of arrest). I understand very well how it may look like:), but I can only say that we are a small team from Russia, we are not interested to anyone. We have one practicing basejumper in our team. He does not really sit on the forums, so he would have announced the release of the application. Perhaps it would have aroused more confidence:) Once again, man can use our app without any permissions. You can add photos and locations, but if you don’t want - no problem. Maybe the community here can give us some advices how to improve the app or resolve problems we have. There are also plenty of places all over the world where people can jump legally.

I just have no need for an app to do this. I've sorted out my own processes in the past 40+ years. Be well.

BASE Logbook 0 #13 March 18, 2022 Hello. Due to recent events we are unable to pay for servers to run the app for reasons beyond our control. Payments from Russia are not possible. We ask you to save your data in case of a server outage. If you have a desire and ability to take on support for the app, we can transfer all the source code and rights to it and provide access to the current infrastructure. For communication you can use our Telegram chat or E-mail. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
