To date, all Tandem Base jumps have been PCA as far as I know.

I believe it was Karlsgratind (not sure of the spelling here) and I believe it was more than once. One of the Norwegian old boys might elaborate.

Here is another freefall... Kjerag. Bit of a tumble

I also remember seeing one where the passenger did the exit because he was much taller than Thor.

Re: [base570] Tandem Base

I think it was three. First one from Kalskråtind which went well. Second one from Smellveggen (near Kjerag) where the passangers foot caught the edge of the exitpoint, sending them on their side. And the third from Kalskråtind where the passanger actually made the exit

Re: [iranianjumper] Tandem Base

We use a 10 foot bridle and a non vented 46" PC with our static line set up. I've made about 10 freefalls with the rig only and one roll over :)
