WOW... gotta see Ewan Jaspan's Team mate and Naish International rider Jesse Richman going LLLAAARRRRGGGGEEEEEEE!
Yep nutter, but farqin awesome....a lesson for all those of us trying to touch the sky...gotta loop or you will drop like a big of Sht!
this is awesome, beats anything freestyle/freeride I've seen, massive kudos and breaths life back into the sport yeeeew
even if he pulled the chute at max altitude will it deploy before he hit the water?
Most reserves will deploy within 50 metres. Assuming the only reason he would need a reserve is a major equipment malfunction he will be falling fast which gives plenty of airspeed to open the parachute. I'm guessing there would be minimal downplane effect so he would get a quite stable ride down.
I don't really get it? Why would anyone want to? Extreme? Why not just go parasailing? I guess it'd be fun.... I dunno, maybe slightly pessimistic but half the fun is getting yourself up there for a big boost, to me, being towed is sorta cheating.
Jumping from objects is pretty cool, but I just think this is a little lame.
Just my opinion.
