    Crate Surfing.

    I've attempted to do this on Shaqi Peninsula at the construction site. I would call for a supply crate then when it hits the spot height I will jump on the crate riding it to the safety of the earth. I havn't yet succeded, yet again I've only applied about 5 Minutes to complete this, I was wondering if anyone has tried it and if I have created the name for it.

    haven't tried surfing crates but i have played on a server with a mate as a commander, we tried to see if we could crush each other with supply crates by zooming in and dropping them down. Fails miserably too tho simple heals them and rolls off! Keep trying to surf!!

      You should add this to the 'what did you invent in BF2' thread

        hmm it is original, but ain't it kinda useless and distracting?

        I can imagine losing track of your surroundings when your mind is trying to calculate the rate of descent from the crate compared to your distance so you can jump on it with the grace of a gazelle.. your opponents will not be as distracted and instead focus more on your head imo.. but like I said original :)

              in an area covered with MG fire, possible armour assets and/or a chopper?

              I'd rather chute it, easier, faster, and doesn't require a supply drop :p

                I think its more a bit of fun than a suggested tactic

                    its gotta be better than having the crate crush you. intentionally or not

                        yeah that is fun and it is possible... in the middle of a game once my clanmate was the commander and there ws 1 enemy left(they had no bases) so my clanmate waited till the guy took up position to cap a flag, and he dropped it right ontop of him and it killed him, lol. he was cursing and everything untill he found out what happened. lol and about the box surfing keep trying because it sounds like fun(see if you can get it recorded) ill give it a try with my free fraps and see what happens lol

                          Ive managed to surf on top of the parachute of supply crates, but not on the crate itself.

                            LOL, dropping supply crates is my favorite way to kill snipers...will say its hard to hit them with it though b/c the crates tend to fall on a grid and not exactly where you tell them to go...

                              If you drop a crate on a slope, somebody can jump on it and slide down the hill on it. It's fun.
