What happens in France...

Recommended Posts

Doesn't always stay there. The film festival in Gap had a showing of Soul Flyers 2 with absolutely insanely low wingsuit openings and is said to be far better than the first movie. Release is said to be around the end of August.

I've seen someone other than Luic, have to fly around trees, as they were still in freefall at the time.:) It makes great footage, but I no longer consider that to be insanely low (for them).

I'm guessing Luic has been up to his usual awesome antics, so I'd like to know what you classify as 'insanely low'?

You know, it is quotes like this that make me have to relaize what someone else said once as true.

There are just some people in this world with cajones 3-4 times the size of my head.

I'm ok with that though, cause it makes for some sick assed video.

Stay safe everyone, but keep the edge moving forward.B|

Now if I told you and everyone else what it was, the surprise would be ruined before you even see it. Let's just say it's so low it's just short of landing with the suit;)

I think the lowest pull I've seen in a wingsuit is Yuri off the tower in Moscow. Pretty much line stretch into water, even with the "forward reduces required altitude" effect of the wingsuit.

Lowest I've seen over dry land has got to be one of the "not enough time to cut away wings or get toggles" jumps. I've seen a couple of those from various people--Jimmy F., Dwain W., Robert P.

I'm having trouble imagining that you could pull much lower than that and avoid hospital time. I know that you're not going to beat Denis L.'s pull without actually landing the suit.

Seen 2 out of that 3…
Am hoping to see Robi at the Swiss B. Boogie.
I don't know about anyone else, but I'm hoping we’ll see Robi and Jimmy give Luic a good run for his money down that slope....

I agree with Tom, good luck beating Denis' record without actually landing it or dying trying…which incidentally, Dwain would have said doesn't count!;)

Dying or impacting and living doesn't count in my book. Being able to get back up on your own and go on living without a trip to the hospital does;) Mark my words, when people see this, it will generate a lot of talk, just like the mountain slope flight did a while back.:)
