Description
The jumper had arrived by herself for this base trip, She had previously 70 base jumps and this was her first jump of the trip (and last of her life unfortunately). She did a good exit , front flip, followed by poor unstable track, pulled having a bad body position , line twists , slow to react and cliff strike ! Died immediately
This jump happened late in the afternoon roughly 9pm and the winds were beyond the measures they have in place for this site...
The site rules are there for peoples protection please follow them and don't be in a rush to jump because it is getting dark....
