LouDiamond 1 #26 February 26, 2005 Look closely at the leading edge of the arms, where the sleeves are black. It appears you can see the openings there between the seams and tack points, much like the front air deflectors on the S3."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ikenever 1 #28 February 27, 2005 It's a very sporty looking unit. I bet it's a gas to fly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
unclecharlie95 3 #29 February 27, 2005 I have uploaded a short video of the suit in action to: http://www.skydivingmovies.com/fileupload/ My Mac is having issues with the normal upload form File is "pf_begin.mp4" I'll shoot an email to Dave to see about getting it moved in to wingsuit / BASE folder. Thanks to Uli for shooting the footageBASEstore.it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
katiebear21 0 #30 February 27, 2005 Good video but you can only see the suit in the first few seconds... Question, what's the point behind the 2-peice suit? Is it just easier to rig and get on? Katie Get your PMS glass necklace here Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
unclecharlie95 3 #31 February 27, 2005 QuoteGood video but you can only see the suit in the first few seconds... It just flies too far away too fast No you're right, the definition of the video is too low (also shot with wrong lens). QuoteQuestion, what's the point behind the 2-peice suit? Is it just easier to rig and get on Robi's aim is to make a suit that is really easy to put on, wear and fly. The two piece suit was the best solution to realise this goal.BASEstore.it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leroydb 0 #32 February 27, 2005 that, and you would think it would make the manufacturing process(?) a bit easier. some peopel have the same size upper body and diff lower half, or vice versa...Leroy ..I knew I was an unwanted baby when I saw my bath toys were a toaster and a radio...

unclecharlie95 3 #34 February 28, 2005 I downloaded the GPS data from the beginner suit flight today. Fall rate was under 50mph with good forward speed, BUT remember this was just my first flight and I could feel the suit has more to offer Looong flights, JBASEstore.it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomAiello 26 #35 February 28, 2005 J, What's your height and weight? I'm assuming that since you seem able to borrow his suits, it's about the same as Robi's? Any chance you could share the GPS track? And you didn't happen to stick a GPS on the man himself, did you? (Somehow I'm guessing no, but I'd love to see what he's able to pull off, as well.)-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

unclecharlie95 3 #38 March 8, 2005 QuoteAny general idea when we'll be able to buy this? Robi hasn't fixed launch date yet, it will be in few months or so. If you come to the Z-Flock & Dock you can see one in the flesh. JBASEstore.it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
