BASE-Springen wird zwar nie allgemein legalisiert werden können, aber für einige spezielle Events ist in Zukunft eine Genehmigung drin! Die Vereinsstruktur hat ihre ersten Erfolge bereits erzielt.

BASE JUMPING HISTORY By Nick Di Giovanni, BASE 194 Delving fully into the history of BASE jumping is outside the scope of this web site. However, in brief, here's how the sport evolved. A note to Para-historians, I learned early two people can see the same thing yet disagree on what they saw, so be careful. A Word About Carl Boenish Carl Boenish is known as the "Father of Modern BASE jumping." This is because he is the first to apply modern gear (ram air parachutes) and modern freefall techniques (tracking) to fixed object jumps. He is also the first to show the world through his films that fixed object jumps are not one-off stunts but jumps that are actually repeatable. Known to his family as Ronnie, Carl is 21 years of age in 1960 when he begins jumping at the DZ in Lake Elsinore, California. He becomes an Electrical Engineer working for the Hughes Corporation and in 1966 he's heavily involved in photographing the early days of RW on the West Coast. One day in the summer of 1966 Carl hears a weird story. A story that would change the course of his life. Two skydivers from Barstow, California, Michael Pelky, an accountant, age 25 and Brian Schubert, a truck driver, age 26, decided to parachute off Yosemite's El Capitan. They jumped side by side on a Sunday afternoon at around 5:00 PM and both did decent delays but did not track away from the wall. Their round Paracommander canopies opened fine but the updrafts and swirling winds pushed them back into the face and both repeatedly banged into the wall on the way down. By the time they landed in the rocky talus below both are pretty beaten up. Pelky has numerous abrasions and a broken ankle. Schubert also had many abrasions plus a broken leg and broken foot. Both were ambulanced to a local hospital.

BASE jumping is the sport of using a parachute to jump from fixed objects. "BASE" is an acronym that stands for the four categories of objects from which one can jump; (B) uilding, (A) ntenna, (S) pan (the word used for a bridge), and (E) arth (the word used for a cliff). BASE jumps are generally from much lower height than a traditional airplane parachute jump, although there are notable exceptions. In the United States, an "advanced" skydiver (over 100 airplane skydives) is recommended, on an airplane jump, to deploy the main parachute no lower than 2,000 feet. At that time, if the airplane jumper had already been in freefall for at least 1,000 feet, the jumper is traveling 120 miles per hour, and is 11 seconds from the ground. Some BASE jumps, very high cliffs, can be from heights of over 5,000 feet, though these are rare. Most BASE jumps are made from less than 1,000 feet. A BASE jump from a 500 foot object is about 6 seconds from the ground.

Slovakopedia Stefan Banic slovak.org The Inventor of the Parachute and BASE Jumping ©tefan Baniè 1870-1941 Stefan Banic, a Slovak inventor, constructed a prototype of a parachute in 1913 and tested it in Washington D.C. in front of the U.S. Patent Office and military representatives by jumping from a 41-floor building and subsequently from an airplane in 1914. His patented parachute became a standard equipment for U.S. pilots during the World War I. Banic worked in the United States from 1907 to 1921, with two interruptions. His name is not well-known, however, the Patent Office and military records confirm these historical facts, as you can also see, if you visit various Air Force (.af.mil) and government (.gov) sites.

E-mail Us I magine the scene. Driving up the Sheikh Zayed Road with the spectacular Emirates Towers coming into prominence on the right. The sun is shining and the sky is blue but then all of a sudden something catches the eye. A small speck – surely it’s a bird – comes hurtling off the top of the tallest tower plummeting towards the ground at 100 miles per hour, seemingly out of control. Imagine the horror when you realise that tiny spec is actually a human being; and then imagine the relief when you see a parachute unfurl just yards from the ground to break the fall. It is a moment that would stay with you for life, but one that is being experienced across the world as the adrenalin-fuelled - yet illegal - sport of BASE jumping spreads.

Gyrotwister WINTERSPORT Snowbike Schneegolfen Broomball Curling INDOOR GAMES Robosoccer BASE Jumping Um es gleich mal auf den Punkt zu bringen: Base Jumper sind verrückte Fallschirmspringer, denen ein normaler Sprung aus einem Flugzeug in etwa 4.000 Metern Höhe viel zu langweilig ist. Sie springen lieber aus Höhen (?) unter 100 Metern ab und holen sich ihren zusätzlichen Kick dadurch, indem sie das Ziehen der Reißleine bis kurz vor den Aufprall vertagen. Achtung, der Boden kommt immer näher... aber war er das beim Absprung nicht auch schon? Die bevorzugten Plattformen der B.A.S.E. Jumper sind getreu ihrem Namen Buildings, Antennas, Spans und Earth - also hohe Gebäude, Brücken, Fernsehtürme und steile Klippen. Eine professionelle Vorbereitung und ein gutes Timing sind dabei überlebenswichtig: Der Fallschirm hat richtig eingepackt zu sein und muss rechtzeitig geöffnet werden. Leichtsinn hat in diesem gefährlichen Extremsport nichts verloren. Einen Fehler machst du nur einmal - bei deinem letzten Sprung. Erstaunlicherweise ist die Zahl der Unfälle aber relativ gering, was hauptsächlich daran liegt, dass sich nur erfahrene Springer und absolute Könner diesem Risiko aussetzen. Ein Risiko übrigens, dass in den meisten Ländern dieser Erde - auch in Deutschland - gar keines ist, weil hier Base Jumping schlichtweg verboten ist. Das macht die Sache für die illegalen Base Jumper natürlich nicht einfacher, tun sich da doch eine Menge neuer Probleme auf: Wie komme ich ungesehen auf das Gebäude? Von welcher Stelle springe ich ab? Wo kann ich sicher landen? Und am wichtigsten: Wie kann ich mich ungesehen wieder aus dem Staub machen?
