Nice one!
I like the idea of making the Lib the recipient of WRX castoffs, since there's plenty of those items about :-)

Are you base jumping off the face of Mt Beerwah above the organ pipes? ^^^ :shock:

BASE RIGS are the whole parachute set-up's .. like the pack, chute, pilot chute, toggles and risers, sliders etc etc

unlike Skydivers we only have 1 Parachute where they have 1 Main and 1 Reserve ..

I pay a little over $3500 for each Base Rig .. and $1500 for each wingsuit made by Phoenix Fly ..

Yeh bud its the biggest in SE QLD .. the Hike to the peak is great fun and outing ..
If weather and winds are ok this sunday i will be up there first thing in morning ..
as its best to get the winds in morning as there low .. :)

Because if the main doesn't open, you're already screwed?

Yeh i re pack my chute atleast 3 times before Exiting the Jump ..
plus having 1 chute makes the Rig smaller, lighter and more compact for
higher speeds and more control ..
