Sure. Everything over 119 is 119. That's why I switched to Neptune. Fido
-
I think in the scene where Lara + 1 jumped building they have normal suits. Just same colors as wingsuits you could see in flight. I'm right, am I? Fido

+ stupid thriller about "extreme" sportsmen which were also bank robbers. It's called "Riders". Fido

Harold. I hope he made one minute. Fido

You were there last week? Did you met French crew? Fido

Finish and material of last version is excellent. What do you mean by deflector? There is piece of fabrics at bottom corner of reserve container to keep main risers in place. I'm not sure about internal riser covers. It is compact and not really long. Difference between IN and OUT is only system of reserve container flaps. OUT is older. I could scan this article if you want. Fido

We have about thirty Advance rigs at our DZ (mainly OUT, some old types and one IN). In ParaMag April 2004 is big article about all Parafun rigs (OUT + IN + Tandem). This year they added lateral cut and new padding etc. Do you have some specific questions? Ps.: I never heard about additional charge for OUT reserve pack, it is not common neither in France nor in Czech republic. Fido
-
But it's all about BM suits. Anybody with experience with monoblocs (X-bow or S-fly)? Fido
-
Forearms are fine, those flights were short. I hold wingtips almost all the time. And tomorow is free day here (Fall of Bastilla) so I could put some jumps. Fido
-
Yes yes yes. I received my S3 by Saturday morning and two hours later I was in the load. I made two jumps (bad weather), one solo and one 2-way (S3 + Fly Your Body tracking suit). Fido
-
I'm in and I love it. Really huge difference to Classic. Fido
-
I have 39 Classic2 + S-fly + S-track jumps and I'll receive my S3 in two weeks. So do you think I'm OK? Fido
-
There is nothing about tandem rig on this page (at least I did not find anything with my acceptable knowledge of russian language). Fido
-
It is Advance tandem. You could clearly see "ears" at the top of reserve container and bridle is anchored at the midle of the container. You could find article about new Parafun equipment in April Para-Mag. Fido

It's just prototype or design study. It's not for sale and won't be in near future. Fido

Fallrates in different suits/experience levels
pbla4024 replied to mccordia's topic in Wing Suit Flying
For me it took about 20-25 jumps to got below 50 mph with Classic 2 (average Pro-Track TAS). I'm 171 cm 65 kg (without rig). Friend with maybe 10 WS jumps made 52 mph (TAS for second half of jump). S-fly designer told me his minimum is 53 kmh = 33 mph. Fido -
Water landing? Fido
-
One newbie (120 jumps) also tried it without problem. This is not treated as WS here in France, so 400 jumps rule is not applied. Fido
-
And useful for beginners (less than 200 jumps) as introduction to WS. Fido

1) I have not problem to catch wings again 2) It's easy to reach hackey 3) It's different to Pantz, you have real leg wing with braces (jsut small) Fido

I jumped prototype of new suit at Saturday. It's two piece suit, really easy to put it on, comfortable enough. Body position is bit strange, minimal vertical speed could be below 100 km/h (according designer). Flying is really easy, wing area is almost same as on Classic. http://shop.veloce-skydive.com/soulflyers.html Fido

Dead? Why? I'm still waiting for list of significant design improvements between Crossbow and MTR-1. Fido
-
I'm almost sure there is difference between inspiration and copying. Fido
-
But I saw both Crossbow and MTR-1 and difference is minimal. I have to say that MTR-1 is almost exact copy of Crossbow. Fido
