freeheelbillie 3 #1 January 14, 2009 Has anyone flown one of these...just wondering what they are like. Also wondering (yes I am getting way ahead of myself) if they are as they claim, a good way to train for wingsuit flight. falling asleep at work, BillieGently pushing comfort zones since 1976...

dragon2 2 #2 January 14, 2009 They're mostly used for BASE. If you want to get into wingsuiting spend your money on JUMPS not a tracksuit. Get a few hundred jumps in in a short time, do group belly dives for most of those, learn to take docks and dive to groups, try some sitflying too (so you'll get unstable a lot and learn to deal), that course'll prepare you for wingsuiting way more than some suit. ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

likestojump 3 #4 January 14, 2009 I own one, and used it a few times from the plane, and a bunch of times from big cliffs/antennas. I think its great for BASE tracking, but does nothing for a beginner learning to WS. In other words I concur with the poster above :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeheelbillie 3 #5 January 14, 2009 Again, thanks. I am a beginner and feel like a have a clear idea of where I would like to take myself in this sport. I just want to be sure that I am doing it in the safeist, most efficient and fun way possible. Thanks again...it all helps! BillieGently pushing comfort zones since 1976...
