If so, any tips?
-
Searched for this answer with no avail. The purpose of a wing suit is for better flying control? Or uh... what exactly? I have seen base jump video's where they use them and they are able to fly waaaay farther out so I understand the basic idea but why would you want to use one? Also why does it take so much experience to be able to fly one? I am a confused nub again damn it.

Yeah, I figured as much but their flashy website got my attention I am not going to buy one for a couple of months I am just looking around.

I have searched and read a lot about freefly suits on this site. I am leaning towards kurupee because you can design your own color and such, and they have some neat design's to start with. For the ppl who have these suits do they hold up well?

HI!!! Welcome!!!

Just to pry a bit more info out of some of you, what books/video's do you recommend? (for a noob) EDIT: I just watched the level 6 and 7 video. Backloop's look like a blast. Hope I can get em' down, cant wait to try. Thanks for the link..

AFF is a wonderful thing. I am have done 6 jumps and I just passed level 4 (I failed 4 twice) You are going to love it. IF you fail a level as I did make sure and don't get frustrated or disappointed, I did and it didn't help at all. I went back the next week with a fresh mind and passed it with flying colors (no pun). When you go up again you will just learn more and come out of it a better skydiver (I am guessing on that seeing how I am still a student) So get out there and do it to it, come back and let us know how it went!! EDIT: I just read the dive flow for level 6, backloops sound fun!! Can't wait to give them a try... Does anyone have a video of a "backloop" so I can get an idea on what to do before I go up?

Hola!! Welcome.. -
I know how you feel. After I failed my level 4 for the 2nd time for the same reason, I kept spinning to the right. My JM told me to go home lay on the ground in front of the t.v or whatever and practice my arch. I stuck a pillow under my chest and put my legs on the chair. I would close my eye's and imagine to the best of my ability freefall and keep the arch for 15sec. I went up and passed with flying color's on my 3rd attempt at level 4. Don't get frustrated, I did and it doesn't help. Take a deep breath go back up there and do it to it. Good luck... Oh and like they said, Relax.

Hola mang, welcome!!! Skydiving, nothing like it!!!

I agree with you as well. Even on my second fail if they had givin me the opportunity to move on I wouldn't of taken it. I needed to get those skills down and as a result my level 4 went awesome!! Skydiving, Nothing like it......

I know exactly how you feel, your going to love your level 4 to

I have been lurking around here for awhile and decided its time to get into the mix. I just did my 6th jump today, the prob is I failed my level 4 twice so in actuality I just passed to level 5 today. I failed the first 2 times for a couple reasons, first time is a result of me kinking (sp) my back instead of rotating it for my turn. The 2nd time I spun right instead of left because I had one arm lower then it should of been I was a tad frustrated but I know that it was important for me to get those down b4 I move on. I fixed all that in my jump today and I am ready and waiting to move on up. I have the "bug" all I can think about is skydiving, its hands down the best thing I could ever do (as I am sure you all know) oh and yes I did buy everyone a case of beer after my first jump See you all around....
