TomAiello 26 #4 January 1, 2005 Have a look at the Wingsuit forum. Lots of discussion on this issue there. The guy you're thinking of is probably Jeb Corliss. He's historically been more a BASE jumper than a skydiver, so if you do a search in the BASE forum, you can find more info about him. He's a friend, a fantastic BASE jumper and a great guy. I'd bet he'll cover all the angles for this one, but I, for one, will be greatly saddened if he's hurt or killed. But I'll send him a case of beer if he walks away (that's funny, if you know Jeb). As a side note, Den L, from Moscow, essentially landed a wingsuit several years ago (on accident). He impacted before his canopy reached line stretch (late pull on a BASE jump), and was hospitalized for about a week.-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomAiello 26 #5 January 1, 2005 If you do a forum search for "wingsuit land", you can see 19 pages worth of posts on the subject.-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryoder 1,590 #6 January 1, 2005 ANYONE can LAND a wingsuit. The tough part is getting up and walking away afterward."There are only three things of value: younger women, faster airplanes, and bigger crocodiles" - Arthur Jones. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
