Top Speeds

[AggieDave 6]

What are people's top speeds in fall rate and what position was it acheved in?
Obviously, FF head down will get higher numbers then RW, so if you know, post both. Me?
Sit-fly--roughly 200mph
Bell to Earth--140mph

Belly- 130
Sit - 148 (Constant) (perfect fall rate IMHO)

Never held HD long enough to count it.

Belly--150 I have done video of sit flys on my belly.
Sit and head down-----Not sure...no pro-trak
coming out of the corner on final------really fast

I've never tried to top out my belly speed...hmm, that could be a fun dive. That was my normal, relaxed arch speed.

That was in my wing suit. It is nothing but nylon if you tuck in the wings, but I think I could go a little faster on my belly if I had too.

That'd be cool. See if you can race a head downer down...

Uh.... get a baggier suit! Thats too fast to play with for fun dives, and still a touch fast for 4 way. For a sit at 200.... you are going to need to slow down a lot if you want to have many people play with you. I like my 148 because a skyball is at 155 and thats just an arm motion up to get to that speed. And that slow lets the floaty people play with me.

Were you thinking of me when you made this post?? j/k
Umm since i only have 16 jumps i havn't tried freeflying so.
My only recorded speed was 150ish on my lvl 5 aff, i wasn't even trying.
i would have to borrow someones pro-track and do a jump of just hard arch to see what i max out at. But with a good tight (and sturdy!!!) jumpsuit i wouldn't want my suit blowing up doing 150+!!

I'm not sure if this is right or not because I haven't seen that speed before but my ProTrack recorded a 257 on a solo hd yesterday in Z Hills. Could be something funky because it is inside my helmet and I understand they can have odd readings if mounted in there.

RW - 132 max. Average depends on the dive and organizers; doing 26 ways with Kate and Tony this weekend my highest average was 117.
Sit- 154
Slowest speed was a tracking dive; average of 90.
