* BIKINI BEACH BASE JUMP *

Ro PCA Shaun at Bikini Beach.jpg

This is a low cliff in France that 3 of us made a base jump from (before the corona-virus outbreak).

I chose not to freefall it, but instead use a static line configuration.

This means I will increase the chances of my parachute opening quicker and on-heading, as the last thing we need on this base jump is a 180 opening.

There was nobody around, the village was dead and we had very minimal mobile phone reception. So IF we had needed emergency services to rescue one of us from the talus in the event of a 180, it may have proved very difficult indeed.

All 3 of us had good jumps, although the 3rd jumper did have a little tree landing haha.

Cheers
