Finland is flat - really flat.

You can jump all base objects in Finland, but some of them are not worth the risk.

There is a good freestanding antenna, which is about 450 feet high. That object has a big and nice landing area.

The base scene is pretty active and all the jumpers are friendly and cool people.

There is not many objects in North though.

You should contact FBA (the Finnish Base Association) and ask them to take you around. jussi@holopainen.net

I also posted your message on their discussion board.

If you do not hear from anyone, let me know and i'll give you directions. I can't take you around personally, because i don't live there anymore.
