BASE Jumping

A Vermont BASE jumper who recently traveled to Twin Falls to attempt to set a jump / hike world record combination is back home awaiting confirmation.

Aside from the heat, conditions have been very good for those who passed through Twin Falls in July to take the leap off the Perrine Bridge.

BASEjumper.com states that body positioning is the most important thing a jumper must be aware of, and that it takes the average jumper approximately 200 jumps before they are considered experienced.

This is the first time I've ever seen our quiet, desert community of roughly 52,000 people, ever mentioned by "the worldwide leader in sports."

All money raised will go to the Magic Valley Trails Enhancement Committee.

We have always thought that BASE jumpers loved Twin Falls, but now we can prove it with science - or actually a new video.

It's just a matter of time. The world's first drone jump has happened. Anyone want to wager on how long before someone does this off of the Perrine?

It's funny what you can learn when you browse through local videos on Instagram. For example, I learned that there are 2 episodes of an extreme sports show being filmed here right now.
