After all that years.... What was the decision of the lawsuit? ......and if he is active on this board: What do you see different to this days skydivr000?
-
I heard this 3 years ago from a other WS-jumper. He says to me this is because he makes this balloon jump with his V2. Okay i was also wearing a WS (Blade) Planned Exit height was around 5500ft and Opening height at least for the WS-Jumpers 3300ft. (normal jumpers 2600ft), but the balloon captain did only give us a little under 5000ft exit height. Last thing what i could see from the other WS-jumper (from the balloon exit ramp)was falling on his back , after exit, and coming to a flat spin....~20s later far, far under my feet a little open canopy. (Puuh) Did my exit and flight, but didn't also made it back to the airport (I'm not a really good flyer) and land 300 ft from the airport fence, unhappy on stones at the field. I was thinking: What a shitty jump and brassy landing 30min later i see the other WS-jumper The DZ-staff bring him back from a little lost village....wheat spikes all over this suit and chute. He didn't look lucky. The driver from the dz say he found him around 1 mile from the dz by this lost village. After a few beers on the evening he show me his GPS-dates.....He exited at 1,1 Miles 4900ft height pulled at or after his flat spin at ~1900ft and had a fully open chute at ~1200ft did fly in the wrong direction and landed 1,5 Miles apart from the airport in a corn field near the lost village.(like i could see on his GPS-Dates; if i remember correctly) I didn't know how many jumps he did have, but i know now my 500 jumps and ~100WS flights from 13000ft are not enough for low balloon jumps(for me). Edit: Sorry TS should be better post this in Ron's Thread.....

Minimum jump number for rider of birdeo?
Waldschrat replied to monkycndo's topic in Wing Suit Flying
This and 100 jumps sounds great possible to misunderstood.... -
I don't think so, but.... that's just my opinion. There are many fatalities caused by (often sober) speeding drivers. Speed was apparently a factor in this case, in addition to alcohol. I would say tell that the people on the german highway ;) One the 3th Lane at the german highway you found people that drive 143 Miles per hour....some are faster(legal).

ZP fabric does not make a canopy design fly and better than the same design made of and F-111 type of material. It just allows the canopy to maintain the flight characteristics longer. Plus it gives the jumper the opportunity to pack ZP. Sparky + we will not forgot, the upper side from same rarely reserves are ZPO! Ever liked from the rigger folks...

Testing my new Blade(1 jump with the suit) WS around -30°C With the Exit i stuck my right wing cut away on the plane....after spinning 30s like hell i could pull my chute, but with short shirt and without gloves in 11000ft, hardcore linetwist until my neck, the jump was no fun.

Sadly nothing new + more stress if you can see at the increase of suicide, depression and psychotic sicknesses.. Humans are not mechanics.

I think exactly like you.

No it isn't, because in general it reduce the number of people which are living on this planet. (kids)

June issue of Parachutist...explaination please
Waldschrat replied to 240m3srt's topic in Wing Suit Flying
How do they work? The exchange interaction between electrons in partially filled "d" and "f" orbitals in certain transition element or lanthanide atoms causes spontaneous alignment of the atomic moments. Holy shit, i learn`t something new after all that years. -

Who manufactures your camera for filming tandems?
Waldschrat replied to juniorflys's topic in Photography and Video
Used to be a no brainer, not anymore. snce they got rid of the recording light and the lanc, you cannow spend more money on swtches than on the camera itself. Why is that a no brainer? The only disputable thing i see is mass production vs. bulk production and both have pro and cons.... -
