  1. Yep the manufactor cut off the old ones and made me 2 new legg straps. They never seen the problem before. they also washed my rig before returning it It got a little dirty in the poond a few days later:o) Bo Wienberg vimeo.com/bowienberg
  2. here is my latest photo by Bundy Bo Wienberg vimeo.com/bowienberg
  3. A little update the manufactor have called the rig back and is going to investigate the problem. I will post again when they fix the problem. But there was NO dirt in the buckle and it is the new stainless type that is seen on moste new rigs. Bo Wienberg vimeo.com/bowienberg
  4. I would love to stick around but have been here in Perris the last 8 days and done over 90 jumps. So i am running low on cash. The Mitts sound delisious. Bo Wienberg vimeo.com/bowienberg
  5. Well if you are able to fall out of the back of your harness its either Way too big for you or you really want to do it on purpose (not having your rig thightend) So I wouldent be scared of the equipment i am on my way up again in the same rig. I think its a combination of a new rig coating, fine desert dust, and the fabric in the buckle. Swooop hard bowie Bo Wienberg vimeo.com/bowienberg
  6. Damm i am at Perris now but leaving friday hope you guys will have fun. Bo Wienberg vimeo.com/bowienberg
  7. This text is taken from my Blog. There is more exiting reading in there if you get borred one day. But i had a nasty experience today. http://bowienberg.blogspot.com/ Well that was exiting On my jump nr. 4 today I jumped out the plane as usual but when I deployed my canopy I felt my left leg strap in my new harness slide open (aproxx 10 cm) the right one had also loosened a little but not that much. But its a really nasty feeling not knowing what is happening so I just flew my canopy very nice and slow down for landing. When I was on the ground I could easy pull my legs traps fully open. It turned out that there was a little fabric piece in my left buckle that was preventing one of my buckles to fully lock my leg strap. That and the fact that there was some kind of coating on the fabric that was getting full of fine desert sand made it very easy to pull open in a straight pull. I have now washed the fabric and tested the force to pull it open and now its not possible to pull it open without bending it 90 degree. We have taken pictures and we have video of the landing and when I am pulling the leg strap open just after landing. That we are sending to manufactor for further investigation. I am just glad I just had more than 90 jumps in less than 8 days so I was able to quickly compensate for the difference in my harness a Velocity is not the best opening canopy with that much riser difference.

  19. Thanks for the replies. Does any one have a picture or a drawing of the Insane setup. Bo Wienberg vimeo.com/bowienberg
  20. Hi i need a little help on making a footcontrolled frontriser like someone is using to film CRW. What is the setup, is there a release system. is it possible to pull down the frontriser too much so the canopy will make a high speed stall. or will the backriser just get loose a a point and the whole load will be on the frontriser. Bo Wienberg vimeo.com/bowienberg
  21. [replyOne thing that has always scared me about terrain flying: what if a seam on the wingsuit blows out? It seems unlikely, but not impossible. Thoughts? Well some would say..... Ohhh fuck But i think Robi can fly he's suit even if one complete wing was missing and flying like this is not maxed out so you "almost" always have time to bail out and fly away. But i am impressed it is an amasing movie I LLIIIIIIKE............. Keep em komming Bo Wienberg vimeo.com/bowienberg
  22. Yes i missed your name on the nationals list. This weekend i heard you got in 3 place at the Viking cup. But you can still make it just be in Randers before 8:30 tomorrow.. Bo Bo Wienberg vimeo.com/bowienberg
  23. BM Promised me that all Pantz in order would be shipped end of this month. I have ordered A lot of pantz from BM in time. Most of them have been delivered within 3-5 weeks, and then there have been some bad deliverytimes so i guess that you can be unlucky sometimes.. But one thing is for sure no other Pantz will make you look that good in the bar at night. That have been proved many times... And yes its also from personal experience Bo Wienberg vimeo.com/bowienberg
