  2. For the Vector II, for example, the manual lists 15.5 or 18.5 ft depending on canopy & rig size. (Actually the Vector III manual states the same, but I can't say either way what is currently the practice.) Ok, so I think my question is answered... Bridles seem to be long enough... If you get them longer, you might impact before the bridle is in tension... scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
  3. strange male fantasy come one it's just fabric... and what if they have to cut the rig.. I saw that... Even helped to do it. Wasn't a very new rig though... But you have to tell them where to cut so it might be reparable... scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

  5. they are very different from the Birdman indeed. They just got (or are getting) the MTR2 out. have a look on www.flybirdman.com you might get more info there. But AFAIK very few people have tried the MTR2 till now. I have a FlyYourBody S-Fly (the one used by Loic in Soul Flyers) and it's just incredible. Well, I don't have a Birdman suit experience so I can't compare. The S-Fly is a 2year development of the Crossbow, and apparently the MTR1 is, from what I heard, a shallow copy of the same suit. Now, please nobody flame me, that's just what I heard. But I know people who own these suits and are not happy with them. They fly not too bad, till they brake. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

  10. on the birdman, do you have 2 cutaway handles ?? Maybe also flying/landing under canopy with the wingsuit (like if you can't take the booties off). Realised the other day when under canopy with quite turbulent wind, that I would really hate to have to cutaway my main with wings open but legs still on, so I kept my knees stuck together and my feet crossed for the whole flight... I never had to cutaway. I would like it to happen the first time without the wingsuit, if possible. scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM

  12. I have hip and chest rings on my Talon. Didn't choose, was second (5th actually) hand... If I got a new rig, certainly would pick hip rings, no chest rings though... tie dye is very important for comfort scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM
