Sputnik / Hinterrugg / Crack INFO !!!
The Sputnik Season will start soon, so there are a few important things to know. Please read full story but most important "Barn line" is forbidden to fly.
!!! STECHELBERG PARKING WARNING !!!
Schilthorn Bahn informed us that repeatedly jumpers don’t pay the parking tickets. Either they try to sneak out behind another vehicle or they drive around the barrier into the fields. It has also been observed that personal cable car tickets are being traded among jumpers and even sold via Facebook.
As this jump has got a lot of frequency and already 2 fatalities in only one year, we feel the need to inform in detail about this jump. Please read carefully and know your limits.
WALENSTADT, SPUTNIK, CRACK REMINDER
Quick reminder of the rules of jumping at famous Sputnik aka Crack.
After recent accident owners of the house which we attempt to fly above during "Barn line" asked kindly to not fly above the buildings but on the side of them and if possible not to low.

High & Low-Ultimate as well as Via Ferrata Ramp now have a fixed "Back-up Radios".
These Radios will be locked on the cable and switched off at all times.
