So now that another ski season is over who loves to jump off cliffs, bridges or hit up a rope swing in the summer? Post your favroite and the biggest thing you have done with picture if you have it, ill try to post some later on.

For me its a ropeswing that you start on a platform about 30-50 feet above the water (i know huge difference cant really remember from last summer). Or an 80 foot cliff
 
we have a sick ropeswing thats been around for ages (literally people my dads age and older used to go to it). you go probably like 30 feet up in the air before you let go. not too big but its really chill. theres also this big ass tree (35 or 40 feet) and at the top theres a tiny platform you jump off of. scary shit (just because its mad easy to fall if your not careful).
 
me and my friends own that place. not literally but in a metaphorical sort of way. before we grew into maturity we made sure to dip in every month of the year (novermber, december, january, february, march, etc included) it often involved hacking ice and running in snow to keep warm after getting out. so much fun in the summer though
 
right near my house are two lakes that are connected by a channel and 30ft over the channel is a train-track bridge, so dope for jumping off cause the waters wicked deep. scary as fuck when a trains coming though
 
which one homie, i go to most of the spots in VT but ive only done the 60 at bingham falls in stowe which is just like...big, i dont feel the need to go any bigger. i jump anying under 60 though.
 
On the yuba river in california theres this bridge called the 49 crossing. Prolly 70ft when its doable. I almost shit my pants everytime and if the cops see you they give out like $200 tickets so its not really worth it.
 
we have a ~40' near where i live that we used to jump at night a ton. all in the woods, so it was really dark. it was funny cuz we would take a spotlight, aim it at the water until the person jumped, and then turn it off.
 
Yeah i like to hit up the Jefferson Cliffs over by three forks they are about 65ft to 68ft depending on how are water levels are but its a rush.
 
I haven't exactly had any possibilities to jump anything massive. There's this 8-10 foot tree that hangs out over some water in downtown Stockholm which is wicked fun:

The bridge behind is also doable, but they've put in all of this sketchy stuff to keep you from climbing it... If you slip, and you're literally climbing on bolts sticking half an inch out from the cement, then you'd slice your entire leg open, then have some serious current to swim with a mangled leg... You can jump up to 80 feet from that, i've only done the 30 though.

The rocks in the Archipelago don't drop off into the water much, it's more of a slope, but i've been one place where you had sweet cliffs, up to 30 feet, most at 15.

Next friday im going to this pool with a 30 footer to do some gainers for the first time off that height, should be fun.

I also just love me a good springboard.
 
i like to jump from various, natural/unatural structures into the deepest deps of a deep blue sea.

just so ya know

Front flip off a probably 30 footer. I jumped from where the top of the pic is. I'm more of a rope swing fan, but cliffs are fun too. 
 
triple back off a rope swing. It's about 30 feet off the water at the release point, but now the whole tree is in the water since the gay park rangers cut it down. I'll post some pics of the cliff hucking once the water gets warm.
 
Yea. On the north end of the lake (anthony's nose area) there are a couple of them. One is right near the Adirondack Camp on the eastern shore. We measured it at 30 feet at the highest point. The other is a little harder to find, on the shore of Anthony's Nose facing the cove. There should be a rope that helps you climb up. We never measured but guestimated it at about 45.
 
backflips and gainers off a 60 ft. tower, usually jsut stick to the 25-30ish ones though

biggest was an 80 footer on the road to hana in maui
 
nothin to jump off around here but at my friends camp the lake is surrounded by 10 to 40ft cliff and its fun to go around and find them. probably gunna build a rope swing into my pond this summer
 
at my cottage in quebec there are some good ones, a rope swing too. but there is a set of 3 that are like 20, 30 and 35-40. those are fun,and then there are huge ones on a neighboring lake that are like 80 foot plus. it's insane, i've never done them.
 
vt cliffs r sick they all are legit. i jsut jumped my foirst bridge of the year. i jumped form about 50 feet so it was amd fun. cold tho
 
the one where you have to run and jump to clear over the 40 footer. and matt u jumped today? thats sick where at?
 
the covered bridge in waistfield, its the best hangout in the summer. any of you guys ever been to warren falls? haha everytime i do the high jump and brush against the rocks in the water...scary, but sooo fun. the first time i did it, was on a bet, this guy told me and my friend he would give us beer if we jumped...so we did! ha
 
we used to jump off this bridge that was 50 feet but then the filled it in with rock by now we got a sweet rope swing and we are putting a zip line across a little lake too
