Title: Batfink Could you jump from here?
Post by: JunkyII on August 15, 2014, 03:55:15 AM
Fun time in the DA tonight with ya bud. This is a picture coming back down the haiku stairs(forbidden staircase, stairway to heaven, ect) on Oahu.

Think this is high enough to base jump off of? :aok

Yeah man, good fights.

well it's waaaay high enough from sea level, what is the cliff face like? You'd need a bit of vertical to get tracking.

If you're really good with this (http://squirrel.ws/order/aura) specific wingsuit you can start gliding a 3:1 ratio with as little as 140m drop

check this vid out for totally insane low starts...

That's insane!!! The adrenaline rush must be crazy on those jumps.

Those guys could definitely jump from some of the spots there.

Strangely enough, I'm going to pay a lot of money to end up doing exactly that :D

Hey junky, when were you up Stairway?
I've been up it twice now, one of my favorite hikes out here in Hawaii. My other two favorites are the Pali Notchs

Awesome place to hunt. If that is a bowtech soldier I have the same bow, couldn't quite make it out.

I give up bow hunting . Got tired of tracking my kill's for miles so I just use my BAR 270 and drop them where they stand .

If you have to track your deer for miles, you aren't doing it right.

I killed a deer while bow hunting last year and it only went 20 yards. 2.5 inch hole in the rib cage will work wonders for you.

I know shot placement is every thing . I went to shooting poison pod's before I quit . They don't go far when one of those hit's one anywhere .
