  1. hopefully you are not in a skimpy red bikini scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  2. I can neither confirm or deny it The BRS is intended to limit risks at lower altitudes. So it could be in the future plans. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  3. vimeo.com/16479661 baci Robi scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  4. I wish I had seen that video before going to my rigger's course scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  5. I must talk to my pilot. I also want minimal loading on the Porter, plas separate pass for everyone So jealous now. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  6. I hope they say YES, and buy lots of them planes, and then let us civilians jump out of them on our tax money
  7. and 100$ worth of listerine strips I know I often do not breathe in freefall. Best way to realize that in wingsuiting is jumping with a full face helmet + earplugs. if you breathe, you will hear it. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  8. YESSS that's what I want to hear. LIVELY and INSTRUCTIVE presentations, combining media sources and keeping the interest of all by different approaches. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  9. what do you mean by that ? length of the procedure ? or number of times he had to use them ? Number 2 is bigger than number 1 and it was always pretty efficient scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  10. major modifications between the "Channel" wing and this one. Radically different shapes (my delta shape, rather than the very wide "vulture" shape he had before), which gives a much more controlable and "playing" wing. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  11. unfortunately I can't make it, but looking forward to see the results, and try smaller ones over here in Switz. very inspirational scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  12. the throttle in the fingers is one of the only controls, together with the smoke switch. besides that it is body-flying. The 1st version of the wing had ailerons which caused more trouble than they solved. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  13. true that !! As he said, Pégoud's first loops with his Blériot plane in the 1913's weren't perfect, and he still has a couple of decades ahead to get them "a they should be" scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  14. the BRS is installed (at least on one rig), it works
  15. I think the 2nd video shows yesterday's try filmed by a "tourist". the official videos are not online yet. More good stuff to come scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  16. for the same reason I jump your perfectly good sister scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  17. Wow...with a mindset like that, feel welcome to stay away. specially the english speaking minority scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  18. Not really a first, but first time he shows it officially www.20min.ch/ro/news/vaud/story/Jetman---C-etait-fantastique--26443113 I know it is a crosspost from the wingsuit forum, but I know many bonfire posters don't necessarily lurk over there scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  19. This morning he showed officially the 1st looping with the wing (quad version). He looped the loop around a hot air balloon www.20min.ch/ro/news/vaud/story/Jetman---C-etait-fantastique--26443113 Congrats Yves, the project is looking good, and still going forward (and UP)
  20. like THIS ONE ?? been on Go-Wear's catalog since a couple of years already
  21. the "overdramatic" seems to be from DZ.commers... scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  22. well the french have LOTS of them panoramic doors. They prefer to invest in doors rather than in footsteps/videosteps scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  23. so much for animal cruelty scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  24. my phone connection isn't working since a couple of days... Where's my phone cable gone ?? scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  25. Yea but what are they going to be for Halloween? A bunny, or kitty, or animal with ears and a tail that can be used to accessorize lingerie or a female dog
