piisfish 140 #4 September 25, 2008 so for the moment , status is GO at 13h30 C.E.T. Telvision shows running from 13h00 C.E.T. he has a rig, but you don't really see it as it is more or less aerodynamically incorporated in the wing. Rig is a Parachutes de France, main canopy is a big Spectre (230?) you can see technical explanations on www.jetmanlive.com but the website is a bit slow todayscissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
