Phoenix-Fly Tracking Gear Failing/Blowing Up
elias123 replied to elias123's topic in Safety and Training
I didn't want to pull in the wingsuiter's face, because for all I knew, he might have been right behind me. Doing a barrel roll to see where he was, was not an option, because that might (and probably would) have affected my stability alot. I was flying straight and decided to keep it that way. I decided to stick to the plan, and wave of with my hands, wich you can't really see in the video. That beeing said, I still pulled reasonably high. (At about 4500 feet.)

I wanted to have a wingloading of around 1 on my Electra 150. That was the main reason. "In a mad world, only the mad are sane" -

No junk food. Daily exercise. Sometimes just bite on your teeth and don't eat for a day or 2. I've been cutting down on expenses on everything (including food) to be able to jump more. That's about it. -

Yes, your right, I misformulated :) "In a mad world, only the mad are sane" -
Phoenix-Fly Tracking Gear Failing/Blowing Up

I've been focusing on wingsuiting and training towards it ever since we met, doing some other flying in between. I'm really motivated to start wingsuiting and although wingsuit training jumps in a tracking suit are definitely not the same, it makes me feel more confident. After My pants blew up I made some jumps on a birdman impact suit (which is inferior to the PF tracking suit if one would ask me), just to do some barrel rolls (which went perfectly) and especially to practice closing my legs and arms and bend my knees to 'simulate' a wingsuit pull. So far it all went good :) It makes me feel more secure and confident if I practice stuff enough. Thank you so much for offering a FFC. I'll keep on jumping and I'm confident that pretty soon we can start making some work out of it :) Thanks again. "In a mad world, only the mad are sane" -

It is (according to my limited and humble opinion) pretty much exactly like Jarno said :"It looks like the loose fit makes the pants slide off your body, and the airpressure/drag cleanly inverts them, only hanging by the cuff (as at 1:17 into the video, I seem to see a pair of Pantz without tears of flapping bits of fabric, just inverted)". When I landed on the ground my pants were simply hanging to my shoes totally inverted. The buckle is history, it lies somewhere in the harbor of Antwerp, but I think a rigger can easily find a way to fix my pants. It must have been a combination of what Jarno said plus the belt buckle not being able to cope with the forces involved (I think). "In a mad world, only the mad are sane"
