  1. you may want so for an unknown reason but the company still produces good wingsuits. and, as far I heard, plans to develop and produce new models in the future. if you think that they're a joke only because they don't take part in the 'armament race' in which new wingsuits are the weapon... ok, they're a joke. along with FYB, maybe. but personally I will smile not when someone is down but when I see more interesting suits on the market - be they made by BM, PF, TS or FYB.
  2. the guys are professional in flyflying, not in communications
  3. it's not about cultures - it's about common sense. I'm gonna buy this video (though I normally do not buy stuff like this - I download it for free, it's my culture ) to LEARN something from it, not to buy a car or anything.
  4. sure, never buy educational skydiving vids with people wearing glasses or goggles and with aircraft sound on the background

    mhaha, so easy to qualify? wingsuiters are sexy
  6. I don't drink vodka but I'll take something... to fly
  7. have you ever tried sadomasochism?
  8. one of the people you mentioned has to show the public a new video nearest days
  9. tell people about the scientists' discovery
  10. what site you prefer? I like youporn for some reason...
  11. very sexy, I'm envious (though mostly because it's so cold here while over there people can jump naked)
  12. and I'd like to add one more thing to the discussion - from the point of view of those who didn't listen and started too early. it happened that someoe made skyflying 'safe'. I mean, someone's quoted some manufacturer's docs telling that wingsuit flying is as safe as RW or FF. and we often here stories about how easy it is to fly and how low is the rate of fatalities in the sport. I'm not a freeflyer, and I don't really know how and when people start doing RW in the other world. but here you can start doing it right after AFF - of course, after having some short RW course with an instructor (or, honestly, even without it). also we always hear stories about people who started flying having 70 or 80 jumps. luckily, we rarely hear the other stories - about those who died being not experienced and flying a wingsuit. or unluckily. it's wuite possible that if the poor guy knew that it's not that simple and safe, maybe he wouldn't have worn the wingsuit on. however, if I had heard the story before I started, I'd surely postponed my first flight. I'm a coward. no, I don't offer to frighten eager newcomers with the terrible fatalities stories. but I think that the image of skyflying should be changed a little bit. it's not as simple as RW or FF, imho.
  13. I appreciate your care but don't worry - my flying is safe, just not as good as I'd like it to be
  14. I had 128 or 138 jumps - doesn't really matter - before I wore the wings. and yes, it was too early. I have 200+ now (almost 50% is a wingsuit), and yes, it feels like it would be still too early. I still feel not too comfortable in the air, and I only hope that in 300 jumps I'll feel better. I mean, if even such a coward as me (yes, if there was a competition 'who's the worst coward among skydivers' I could have won
  15. nonono, don't ignore him! how will we know that he's still alive if he doesn't post here
