sburkart 0 #1 July 31, 2003 Saw most of this show today; the next airdate is next Tuesday early in the AM. Still don't know how they manage to stay in freefall for ten minutes, must be the air or something... Outdoor Life Network (OLNTV.com) TUESDAY 8/5/2003 2:30AM - 3:00AM HIGH FIVE French Boogie Skydivers are thrown in to the air at 3000 meters and free fall for 10 minutes. The idea of the boogie is to forget the competition spirit in order to have fun. It is a great occasion to freestyle alone or in groups, with boards or wings. At Brienne le Chateau in France, the French boogie brings together lots of people with the same passion and enjoyment for this sport. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sburkart 0 #4 July 31, 2003 Quote I think on the 12th. Yes: TUESDAY 8/12/2003 1:00PM - 1:30PM HIGH FIVE Base Jump Jumping from buildings, bridges and any other land based objects is the core to base jumping. Highly illegal generally which seems to be part of the thrill! Jumps at night and also in broad daylight and the risk that the parachute may not open are all part of the thrill.

sburkart 0 #9 August 1, 2003 QuoteWere they using the humoungous chopper at that boogie? Yes they were. The show also featured a CRW 50-way diamond that was busted on the last (bottom) slot, if that jogs your memory. Quotewould someone please explain how I can be thrown into the air at 3,000m and freefall for 10minutes? That's either the result of a typo or skydivers messing with the wuffo production company.
