Velopilot 0 #1 March 5, 2004 I just got the new Soul Flyers DVD from Flyyourbody.com and I think it is the greatest dvd Ive ever seen. It's got Loic Jean-Albert and all his buddies in it. The DVD is in all french and you can purchase it with english subtitles at the bottom but my suggestion is to just leave of the subtitles and watch the movie instead of trying to read. They dont say much of anything anyway. It has some killer blade running stuff chasing skiers in switzerland, lots of Base jumps from Gondolas on the slopes, bridges, cliffs, and parasails. One guy does a McConkey flip of a bridge with his parasail. Its got parasailing and and ground launched swooping over sand dunes in Namibia. Tons of wingsuit flying past CRW dogs and the best footage of all: Loic takes his wingsuit along the slope of a mountain at about 15 off the surface passes two of his skiing buddies and vears left off the slope to deploy. Parachutist said he was about 50 ft over the skiers heads which is why I bought it. But it looks to me like his buddy could have jumped and whacked him with his ski pole as Loic goes cruising by. Its the most phenomenal footage ive ever seen. All around this dvd is a must. Go buy it. You will be glad you did.[email] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
piisfish 140 #2 March 6, 2004 YEP, several threads on this subject already in : general skydiving, BASE, wingsuit, French forum, Talk Back... If it went to the Oscars, it would get several prizes... I also love the 3D special effects when he swoops the mountain with his wingsuit edited for precision : QuoteParachutist said he was about 50 ft over the skiers heads not 50 ft... between 3-5 meters, which is 10-18 ft ********* btw, it is not the BEST canopy piloting video though, even if the set with the skiers, and the Bec des Rosses part in Verbier are awesomescissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Velopilot 0 #3 March 6, 2004 I didnt mean to make it sound like it was the best canopy piloting video out there. It is unique though. Thanks for the correction on the parachutist quote. maybe i read that somewhere else.[email] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
piisfish 140 #4 March 6, 2004 but that's where you posted it didn't see much Canopy piloting videos, only Out of the Blue. Great images, the only part are the interwiews...scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
