Now THAT is a wall strike! Juding by the video quality and the Racer, something tells me this jump was done before people started to figure out BASE jumping. As I know you would know Nick, knowledge and gear was a bit different back in the day! BASE 1384

Dude - THAT was bad advice. I jumped a borrowed Velocity 111 yesterday and I now have a broken tib/fib to show for it. My bad man, I meant to say it has to be sub 100. That 111 probably flared like a shit brickhouse. BASE 1384

Uh Oh what did he do BASE 1384

Are you referring to Skydive Chicago and Roger Nelson's past? He went to prison and paid his dues, but I don't remember anything about his DZ being confiscated and assets sold off, so it's still there, and it appears that it grew bigger after the fact. But of course I don't know the whole story so I will say nothing more. Each situation is different though. We're all at the mercy of the IRS if we fuck up. Whatever Mr Hart did, he fucked up. Time will tell what happens next to satisfy the debt/fine/etc. Exactly. Hart fucked up, and now he is paying his dues. I havent heard anything to suggest the IRS will be seizing his airplanes. BASE 1384

Then maybe you should just shut the fuck up! Didn't need to be I can read the public record! And for the record the link I posted was to the OP, because as usual from the Start camp you people can't tell the full story and continue to repeat the lies you were told and or leave out little things like 679.000 in fines! Really posting factual info of the public news stories is casting dispersions with venom, eh. have yourself another cup of kool aid. And where the fuck you get all this joy from in my post, who the fuck made you the posting police? You clearly read into my post what you too and nothing I say will change your mind, nor do I care to try to change it. Nope, nada, none Nope, nada, not stupid enough to try to get a job there for one thing due to a few scumbags I don't care to be around who all jumped ship from that other crook up the road and ran to Mr. Hart to suck his dick. Any problems between me and that dz have nothing to do with John Hart or Gene Newsome or any other staff members there currently. Only problem I've ever had at that DZ has been with one lying lowlife prick who was our USPA regional director at the time, and that fact has never been hidden, in fact it's been posted in public a number of times. Again who the fuck are you to decide how I feel about any this? you mean a skydiving business built on illegal money just like skydive america was, maybe you missed that in my first post, kool aid must still be burning up your brain cells, that or you just have a hard on for those who have anything to say on the topic at hand. What you mean the facts like, I worked at all three dropzones in the area before Mr.Hart came around throwing his illegal around money to impress everyone. Guess what Mr. Posting police I worked at a lot of dropzones. Haven't been in the area in almost 3 years, nor do I work for any DZ's in the region, nor do I live in the region! Dispite what ever line of bullshit your fellow kool aid drinkers would like you to believe, my life is just fine and has never been screwed up, in fact I'm doing quite well with a nice house, wife and kid. And we didn't need to cheat the US gov out of tax money to pay for our skydiving or for the country club dues! Like that really means anything, only fucking retards and those in LE or military backgrounds and up tight republicans tout that fucking card as proof someone is a bad person.... Maybe I should start publicly dropping all the names of people from Start Skydiving who have been known to attended safety meetings, or do XTC and blow every damn weekend or at boogies who on staff there. Well your doing a hell of a job trying, maybe you should have been on his lawyers pay roll. Really, yet you clearly support a con man and felon, I could care less what you think of my behavior, if you don't like it don't fucking read my post! Those who need to know, know and it's really none of your business who I'am if you didn't come in to stir the shit and try to inject words and or make wild ass claims about my first post and the reason behind it being posted as well as act like a prick maybe I would have told you, doubt it though. However it's clear your now the company PR guy to whitewash the facts , I bet your making the kool aid too. See there you go again talking out your ass! Not even close, however I'm sure you'll chime back in here and keep up you personal attack of me or anyone else who trys to talk about the public record who has ever worked for another dz in the area all while touting the kool aid party line of bullshit all about what a great guy Mr. Hart is and how that DZ was not built on illegal money Mr. Hart was just sent to the big house for taking to fund his skydiving ventures and of course GOLF too! Yea same can be said for the head their up ass defenders who try to twist and read into other peoples post because they wish the reports of their so called "patriotic hero" would go away and people wouldn't or shouldn't talk about it or you'll try to point the finger at them (common defense legal tactic) and claim I've never said or post anything about justice being served in this case 1) pointed out the fact he was order to pay 679K. 2) laughed at those who posted in the linked news story how it was some other slection employee who was guilty and then died. 3) pointed out the fact it a lot like Larry Kershenbaum and skydive america 4) also found it funny those who have been saying he already paid it back when clearly he has not. Yet you seem to read into that post and then come in a start swing your dick around at me and my post. You must suck at your job then, because you seem to fail to see Mr. Hart's actions are the ones that got him into the problems he is facing, not any of us here. You want keep on point finger at those of us who choose to talk about this on a fourm and lable us as "taking joy in, kicking when down, dispersions with so much venom" and or implying we are causing more suffering to his family because you don't like what others have to say or posting links to news stories and not some bullshit from facebook of Start, it is fine with me, myself and most everyone who dosen't work for or jump and support Mr. Hart, know he and he alone is to blame for suffering caused to his family or his business due to his actions, no matter how you try to skirt it and place blame on someone else. (oh yea I forgot the the dead guy who did it all and hung it on John and then died) The facts are pretty clear: 1. John got busted using money that should have been sent to the government. 2. it was just under 680K and it's been spent 3. He is going to do time and be a felon now 4. It's his own fault and his harm of family and business and his alone. I will admit it would be fun to to be there the day the IRS waltz's in there like Willie Nelsons house and takes all the assets that say "sponsored by slection.com" or "slection.com" and see you and your buddies standing around with a stupid look on your faces and kool aid cups in hand wondering where your going to go jump next and the only reason there would be even the slightest satisfaction in any of that is simply due to a number of other pricks that jump there who are just like you. Have nice day and happy future posting, I'm done engaging you in your little delusional blame game based on a post you don't like. Yup, no axe to grind here people move along. A dropzone founded on illegal money? Oh no! Give me a fucking break. One of the biggest dropzones in the world was founded on illegal money. People still go to that DZ, and people will still go to Start. BASE 1384

you are wrong sir, i did not FALL into the pool, i somehow managed to end a nasty downwind swoop by popping up and into the pool, mercedez is a hilarious story from 4yrs ago, anyone who wants to hear about it PM me. oh and, for the record, if i cared, thats a personal attack, moderators if you read this, please dont edit b/c i could care less, thanks =D but i lived, sorry dude, i added to the pool of great stories, another good pun :). EDIT: i never pretended to do it on purpose ;) Is there video of this?! BASE 1384

Im sorry but that is terrible advise. You wont be able to continue to learn at an optimal rate unless you get a velocity. BASE 1384

Why do you need to embroider something on your jumpsuit? BASE 1384

Your riggah must love you! BASE 1384

I like this one! I can totally see my buddy telling me this BASE 1384

"I caught a thermal coming over that bean field" BASE 1384

Dude. Atmo is just the FF portion of the skydive. He already said at breakoff they track (the flat way) to achieve separation. BASE 1384

Did you tell him it's ok as you are an illegal tool yourself? BASE 1384

I have a set that is slighlty more advanced than the "beginer" set on that site. I can pick most Master pad locks in less than a minute. And I have picked every dead-bolt I've ever attempted, some took significantly longer than others. Good thread... I'm going to have to grab my set and a pad lock now. I can usually pick a master lock in under a minute. Anything more complicated than that, I dont stand a chance. Anyone have luck with those auto pick guns? BASE 1384

(golfclap) BASE 1384

Count me in! BASE 1384

+1 BASE 1384

happy bday you limey fuck. And what a way to celebrate! I will bet any amount of money that you are arrested before your next birthday! BASE 1384

Hell yes. I want to get with Crater Nate to rig something like this up. Seems like it should be up his alley. That really sucks about your friend. I cant even imagine........ BASE 1384

rapell from another skydiver Where was the rap? I have done it a few times. http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2008649&id=203002032&l=d596480c02 That is awesome! We did something on a smaller scale http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2008649&id=203002032&l=d596480c02#!/photo.php?pid=30154221&id=1430400040&fbid=1066302784382 We had limited equipment at the dz when that half assed plan was created. What kind of set up did you guys use? BASE 1384

I was thinking it was some kind of rapell from a paraglider. But that does give me an idea...... BASE 1384

According to my logbook, that jump was on Wednesday, and we only got to 675' because some people on the load were "tired" I came across the facebook page of that tv channel though. Some not so happy campers there! BASE 1384

Maybe time to update the avatar then huh? BASE 1384

Lol just google Delante West and Gloria James. I assume it is bullshit, but given the stable-ness of West and Gloria James, you never know. We can add it to the list: The Shot The Drive The Fumble The MILF BASE 1384

Well now that Delante is banging Lebrons mom, I suspect he is so gone! Ok I dont think that rumor is true, but I have started to believe in the Cleveland curse. He probably does too. I give it 70/30 he leaves, and Cleveland riots. (wanna go join?) I can see it now. The news will use a scene from Drew Carey's show where they were doing the dance-off competition out on the street and the news anchor's singing "CLEVELAND RIOTS! CLEVELAND RIOTS!"
