Stormers
There are many reasons Stormers have been successful. They beat Ulster in March by a margin 23-20. However, that game was marred in part by a controversial call made by the TMO. John Cooney, Stormers player, attempted several contestable kicks. Dobson and the rest of his team decided to refocus on contestable strikes and avoid quicksand.
The Stormers have a large following online. Their fans are impressive, being the only South Africa team to win three consecutive Heineken Cups. Stade Mayol is famous for their raucous atmosphere. The team is known for creating an electric atmosphere with their chants of "Pilou Pilou". Recent years have seen a decrease in attendance.
Three times the Stormers have reached semi-finals. They were placed fifth overall, one spot behind the Cats, in 2000. They reached the final in 2004 after defeating the Highlanders. They reached the semi-finals in 2011, but were defeated by the Crusaders.

How To
How do I get started with Base Jumping?
Base jumping is also known as parachuting or free-fall. It involves jumping from fixed objects such as buildings, bridges and towers without any equipment. Jumping off an object is done by the participant. The parachute then helps them land safely. It is similar to skydiving, except that there is no requirement to wear a parachute, nor do you have to hold your breath while waiting to open it.
The most common type of base jumper is called a wingsuit jumper. A wingsuit consists of two pieces, each piece of fabric being sewn together. One piece covers chest and arms, while the second one covers the legs. The boots are specially designed to allow the jumper stand upright during flight. Jumpers tend to pull their feet up tight during descent. This causes the material that covers the legs to gather and form a large volume of air under the jumper. The jumper can open his/her parachute if the air pocket is large enough and land safely.
To propel themselves higher in the air, some base jumpers use powered suits. Powered suits have two main parts: a backpack containing batteries and a jet pack worn under the jumper's clothes. These small rockets can fire hot gas at high speed from the packs. This creates thrust and propels the jumper ahead. These suits can be quite loud and heavy.
BASE jumping can be a dangerous sport. Make sure you fully understand the risks associated with learning BASE jumping. There are several ways to die while doing BASE jumping: you could fall off a steep cliff, hit an obstacle head-on, upside down or collide with another jumper. Although BASE jumping isn't always dangerous, it can prove very dangerous if done incorrectly. Be sure to follow the safety tips below before you attempt to BASE Jump.
First, practice safe BASE jumping techniques by practicing on a smaller hill. Be sure to spend a few minutes getting used to the terrain before you jump from a higher one. Pay attention to weather conditions. Avoid jumping when the wind is not blowing in your face. Foggy skies are another danger. If you can see more then 10ft ahead of you, you may need to wait for the clouds to clear. Make sure you have the proper gear. A helmet, goggles, gloves and a full-suit with a harness are all essential. Fourth, ensure you have a plan. In case something goes wrong, you should ask another person to come along with you. Never jump by yourself. Always have another person watching over your back.
