Jason, sorry to bring this up as I see this is a sore subject for you but you start your post saying we should not leave anyone out and you end it saying that people need to be cut so which is it? The simple fact is we are not leaving anyone out, they have a whole year and plenty of skills camps to get there. It is entirely up to each person how much the let themselves improve. This is just one of the many sub diciplines of wingsuit flying and if your not keen on it you don't have to show. Perhaps without you we will only get 70 is this what you are worried about. I can see how flocking could be looked at as boring but not everyone shares your point of view (no offense but thank god they don't) or this forum would be over loaded with whiney bitchy remarks And I would love to see team Alien Nation a part of the flock. At least come to one of the events we have planned and fly with us, against us, under us or any way you want :) BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

In Texas, having intense negotiations with team ALIEN NATION. I'm going back in, with the "not hugged enough" strategy, hope it works. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

_______________________________________________________________ Your long awaited suit, first pict. printed on the front so you have a remote chance of seeing it on breakoff for half a second. Skydive City liked it so much the emblazoned their whole fleet, second pict. These guys are good, third pict. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

Guess duncan and mark didnt tell you about our new years 'Biroman' bonfire, and why they asked for two tony-suits ;-) You have given me a great idea

There is no way you could see on top of my wings from below and behind. And even if I put it on the front I would be way to far above for you to read it. However, I am going to make a suit just for you. And embroidery is so yesterday we sublimate now. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

Almost, there was a Raptor that snuck in there BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

From what I could see it just lacked high pressure inflation, very similar arm loading to our non inflating single skin wing. I don't think the go fast can holders on the leading do alot aside from giving a mini biplane effect. I think they just add unwanted drag. Our arm wing inlet was inspired by that, but we use it for ram air inflation instead. And I can say the GS1 did not influence our design because I started off with a smaller suit which is now become the Raptor, it was outflying other suits at the time but when I would backfly, it went low all the time so it then grew into the Mach 1 and then Super Mach 1 so these suits were born from backflying. The Gs1 right out the plane flew great it was more toward the end of the jump that fatigue took over. Crossporting does help but the proper inlet is what makes high pressure. And jumpers want the best, bottom line, so if there are ideas inspired by other suits most don't care they are happy to have a great flying suit.

What can I say, Take off the Blade, and you'll never get laid That would be the other way around "wear a blade and no get laid" Girls dig my scallops Only wraped in bacon The GS1 is a nice flying suit when you get past the tail flappage and massive arm loading, which was about the same as when I did a rodeo jump with a 180 pound (81 kg) girl on my back tough at pull time BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

I can attest to that Dunkin Wright and Mark Harris showed up at Z-Hills this week and I got to say it these guys were up there with the best that I have flown with. We did pull off a 3 way docked backfly that was smooth as silk. They didn't do so bad on the flowrider either, although Mark might have a sore neck for a few days. They both bought mercury super mercury mach ones, what can I say once you go Mach you don't go bach BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

I find that if you point your toes outward right before wave off then click the back of your heels together the legwing doesn't effect the wave off as much. On the third click I leave them together, deploy, all the while squeezing my knees together and the legwing is closed before the average deployment. On a fast opening it sometimes is not all the way shut down. If you choose to leave the leg wing open during deployment make sure your feet are even (not having one foot in front of the other) unless you are intentionally flying your way out of line twist

Lurch if you can't outfloat me in that suit then you should start knitting, cause you weigh 135lbs (61.23kg) and I am 178lbs (80.73kg) and your suit goes to your ankles, mine to my knees. But we will see just what you have next time we fly together perhaps it will be the toughest fallrate battle of my career aside from flying with my girlfreind who weighs 115lbs (52.16kg) and has 3000 more jumps than me, on her second jump it took everthing I had to keep up with her and she wasn't flying the suit for everything it had yet. You are a floaty bastard in the s6 without the godzilla mod BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/ -
hey we are getting 41 points (skin on skin) for the first round, after only 3 practice jumps, and are you sure we wont be disqualified because our suits are clearly better than yours? BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/
-
our suits don't fall out of the sky when you drop the gripper so we don't have to hold them while we take (skin on skin) docks. but gutters would be nice if it rains We had thought of big loop wrist grippers so you can fly real fast and recklessly take grips, i figure we can step it up to at least 42 points that way
-
o.k. we stepped it up to 41 points each for a full second I'd post the vid but i dont want to give our secrets away
-
We got 2 points, I think with some practice we can get at least 5 or 6 BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

So what you are telling me is you can't tell the difference of the fall rate from one dive to the next without looking at a data logger, and lets say you are jumping with the same people (who by the way are some of the most experienced in our discipline) and these jumpers fly very consistent fall rates, do you think that you can tell the difference? I'll put it in your terms if you see ten people, that you know are the same height, then someone shorter comes along, you don't need a tape measure to conclude one person is shorter. I don't know maybe you do, perhaps you contact lenses are misaligned again. And yes this is a public forum so that also gives me the right to retort And Pierre, you are a series 2 wingsuit owner, so there is no need for apologies.

Just in case anyone failed to read the headline of this post, TO ALL TONYSUIT SERIES 2 WINGSUIT OWNERS, Basically what that means in simpler words is if you have already purchased a wingsuit from Tonysuits, and it was our second series wingsuit then this post was directed at you. If you own any other suit this post was not directed at you, sorry for the confusion, perhaps next time we make a post that is directed "only at our customers" we will try to make it much more clear, although I'm not sure it could have been any clearer. To all that commented on here in a (derogatory manner), particularly Scott who do not already own a series two Tonysuit wingsuit get a girlfriend a boyfriend or a life. With the exception of Jarno. Now for those of you that are questioning how we can determine this difference in fall rate the answer is this was tested over hundreds of jumps. On my first original SM1, it was made with the hip wing attachment point only in the front side of the wing. I then did over 700 jumps on this suit. When I got my new SM1, it had the wing attached at the front and back, immediately I noticed a huge difference in fall rate when i maxed out, so we tweaked the patterns and got much better results, after putting over 200 jumps on my new suit I went back to my original SM1 and noticed a difference in fall rate that was slower. We then decided to pick the stitch on the backside of the wing. But before we did this we felt that because of how "data hungry" alot of people are we should wear our altitrack just to show that it really does work. so I went and did a few jumps (wearing the Altitrack) with the wing still attached in the front and back, picked the back of the wing and did a few like that and the numbers told me what I already knew. Sorry for not wearing a g.p.s. unit, kriszfly sent us a g.p.s. with no directions and a European plug So in conclusion; pay attention to the post you are commenting on; if you don't have one, get a life; data is easily corrupted, even the almighty G.P.S.

one suit in existence I'm pretty sure Jeff can't outfloat. Ah but do you remember getting the head start on me, with two big cameras on my head, and i caught up to you to get those shots of your mal. i will admit you were hauling ass, one of the fastest suits i have flown against. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/ -
The altitrack keeps loging speeds even after the little canopy icon is displayed. So it does not seem to turn off, or at least so far, the only thing that it stopped doing was computing the average speed which I dont care about. Today is another day so as soon as the fog clears I'll get on it. And yes...you probably dont like this flying piece of Euro-trash too much now heheheWinkTongue Don't worrie we are not haters, and besides you might be a potential future customer. I did not know Euro-trash could fly. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/
