I got one of the advanced copies of this base jumping book because I get the job of packaging and shipping them all to you. It looks awesome! The photos alone are worth it: they are full color and bad ass. The writing spans just about everything including one story about a vegas casino/rock star/playmate episode that is most entertaining building jump story i have ever read.

This is a self-published book. No big marketing budget for advertising, road tour etc so please, please tell a friend or two about the book. Many thanks in advance for forwarding this link to your friends http://base-book.com/

SuperTopo.com Announces 2010 Editors’ Choice Award For Duffel Bags

MILL VALLEY, CA--SuperTopo.com, one of the most popular climbing web sites in the world, revealed today the results of the SuperTopo 2010 Editors’ Choice Awards for the Duffel Bag category, listing this year’s best duffel bag and best value for duffel bags. The SuperTopo.com staff chose the following winners after extensive field testing on expeditions over four continents. Each bag also underwent extensive side by side tests to evaluate key performance metrics such as hauling efficiency, ease-of-use, and other factors. The complete duffel bag review test results for 2010 are available on SuperTopo.com. The winners are:

North Face Base Camp Duffel – winner of the Editor's Choice Award for 2010. It was the most convenient bag to load and lash and came with many carrying options. According to gear tester Ian Nicholson, "The North Face Base Camp Duffel sets the bar to which which all other expedition duffels are compared. While it has been around forever, it has undergone only minor revisions and is still at the top of the pack."

Helly Hansen Duffel – winner of the Best Buy award for 2010. This award is given to a product that balances an extremely high score in our tests and a very reasonable price. According to Ian Nicholson, "None of the other sub $100 models feature a D-shaped opening or backpack straps. It also has more small pockets than any similarly priced models."

Gregory Alpaca Duffel – winner of the Recommended award for 2010. This award is given to products that scored very highly, and offered unique capabilities.   According to Nicholson, "The Gregory Alpaca is one of the most fully-featured duffels we tested and has the most carrying options."
