Then aren't you saying exactly the same thing I was saying? At the moment, there are only a few jumps/groups where people would truly need to fly max in a high performance suit. Some heavy bodies aside who need more wing to stay aloft..most flocks would be do-able in smaller suits.. JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

Reread my orginal post and notice Im wasnt talking to or about anyone in particular, but talking about wingsuits and flocking in general.. There are groups of people who fly max constantly, and on every dive. but you only get that with the top flyers, in the more experienced groups. Most flocking done at DZs is not the high speed flying most of us would like to see. Xx, "hero" JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

And nothing beats having an only half-full load at the end of the boogie, and racing a motorcycle in the An72 on the runway JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

Its getting better and better..on both sides of the pond..though I always forget how many years behind the curve we are But looking at your Z-Flock photo's, there's only a few jumps with experienced people where the suits are truly flying? It may be more then 10%, but show me an event video with people flocking at max from start to end, and I'll try and agree with you for once..(and even then I'll disagree..just to annoy you) JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

Define beginner and define intermediate and define expert? I know plenty of people with 100 or more wingsuit jumps who would still only fit in the beginner catagory (though thats not how they see themselves) 90% of all the skydives done in groups could be flown in a classic by most people if they focussed more on their own skills instead of what suit they fly. Its not the suit OR jumpnumbers that make you a beginner, intermediate or expert flyer.. JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

Same here...depending on the batch of mylar used, it broke easy. And packing the suit took some extra care.. Glad to see newer materials used in wingsuits JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

Who's the Dutch girl btw!? And..was she wearing clogs like she should have!? JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

Glad you like em We're working on two new videos, which will be out soon-ish JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

Search long enough and there is a first for everything... A perfect 14 way V was already flown in 2004 at the hercules boogie? Who sets the rules for these records? And what organisation recognises them? What world record is next, first 15 way on a tuesday in pink suits flown by gay men from 3k through a rainstorm? Nice pictures (show em if you got em)..incredible flying...but 'world records?' Its wonderfull media exposure..and I can imagine, incredible fun to fly..and my hats off to the girls that made it happen! JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

One small comment on that (to prevent me having to capture 2 hours of footage for every 2 minute 60 way we make) With a boogie of this size. Jumping in one to three groups per load. Doing 5 to 8 loads a day. And doing that for a full week. The amount of footage shot during the week wil probably rival the raw footage library from Lord of the Rings in length.. Every dive wil have one or two main camera people (top/bottom) and I'll be using their footage 99% of the time (copying tape to tape. Computers take up too much time at a boogie) Only when you have a truly spectaculair action. Funnel. Dock. Swoop or truly jaw-dropping shot from inside the formation, drop by and dump it. Ill probably be shooting ground footage throughout the boogie but for the actual jumps, leave my camera on the ground, and focus on flying my slot (and leave the outside video to the awesome flyers such as Mark Harris and James Boole!) (No footage disappearing into an unnamed persons X-files cabinet of DV tapes this year) JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

If you put it upright, it scares the birds away...thats for sure JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

Its something you wil almost never see in europe. We do make the same agreements. You break it, you buy it. And you fly, so you're responsible. But problems with liability (and lawsuits that follow) is something you dont really see here. JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

Sweet! Now get your ass back to working on the full thing The sooner its online the better! JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

There's more people coming from belgium, holland and germany. But here's the names that are confirmed so far Costyn van Dongen Jarno Cordia Jean-Louis Becker (aka J-lo) James McAlinden Sebastiaan Prins Hans Schoeber (aka gadget) Toomas Talts (aka ekstremist) Maie Kütt (aka veela) We'll mostly be working in two groups on smaller (where possible) multi-point, formations. Only one more week to go! JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

So he's playing with a wet, young pussy...? JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

PM costyn, and pray your inbox can take 5 Gigs of pics JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

Since all the footage everyone gave to guillio disappeared into his X-Files, and my short video only had the jumps in it. I would definately love a video on last year, and all the great fun on the ground. Failed rodeos macca being cool...you know.. And maybe someone move this thread hijack to the Cochstedt topic or its own thread? Though its nowhere near as cool as that awesome BBQ thread JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

With 2 hot german sisters as passengers.....may I ad! JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

I belive the last count was already up to 200 registered (also non wingsuit). If the 'count' is anything like last year (2/3d of those attending flying wingsuits) then we're in for a party! Scotty or Rolf will probably know the number of flyboys and girls! JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

Would that be the famous Ice-Files tape? JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

Those are not pornstart glasses... Thats a car-windshield JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

Dont forget the pornstar glasses! JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

As long as its not a brown stain, Im proud of you son! JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

Sweet video! Looks like good diciplined flying in that last bigway! And awesome camera-angles.. We should do a 2way in germany, both wearing our helmet cams JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?
