i have a hard time believing this.. you know, i suck at landing. badly. if someone offered a velo no matter what size, i would turn it down. half the jumps i did were tracking jumps. i've been on 8-way track dives. i always did quite well in freefall. i think i have pretty quick reflexes. i did have some trouble on my jumps too. from a slight flat spin that i got out of instantly the way i was showed. didnt even try box-position. linetwists on opening, zack-zack, wings detached, free hands for troubleshooting.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

well, if you would read and understand right, you'd see i've given no instruction at all. what i shared was my experience. no more no less. your mommy should have given you a slap every now and then. its probably to late now. your only addition to this thread was some sarcasm. and not so funny as you might think. besides that, assuming your jump-nr.'s are right, you seem to be full on when it comes to questions better answered by someone qualified. given your own strong moral and ethical beliefs, you're just badly outing yourself as a hypocrit. mmmk!? “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

they're out of service since 1994. we got hornets now. cant really tell by the clip, i'm sure there's a fanatic or two that own a private hunter now. would be ex-airforce pilots anyway, and thats the terrain they're training in, so its not the first time for sure. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

just cool it.. to be honest, i wouldnt give myself a parachute in hands. still there were other people that said, ok, you've passed aff, this and that, eventually someone decided i was good enough to be given a license. how did i change my odds regarding injury or death? when i got a drivers license, how did this change my odds? on both occasions, i decided to do the activity. i was trained by other people to do whatever. they eventually tested i was ok to do it without supervision. now, come wingsuiting: i knew i didnt have half the required jumps, didnt even knew that some required 500 jumps. i didnt knew some required a certain time in the sport. well, obviously i do know BS. anyway, i was given a torough training, easy tasks, i knew what not to do on those first jumps.. easy suit as well. not all that bad. if i'd given the guy a second thought i could do it, he wouldnt let me jump. i decided that i wanted to try. someone else gave me a training and approved i was ready to do it. like many other times before. i decided i wanted to take that unnecessary risk, as i already did with skydiving and driving. i didnt change my odds in anyway more or less than i did with the other! well, they're kind of accumulating probably. and once again, i dont believe any of you that say they wouldnt have tried it, if it was offered to you.. the only usuable info on the whole thing i got was in IM-chats and/or pm's.. like, do a lot of rw, lots of tracking, get at least another 100 jumps in.. nah, not quite a handful of posts here were informative. now, if i didnt knew just a little of how a bad boy i was, and then bragued some on on the internet. asking, like, what shall i do now? that bashing around only makes me want to jump some more wingsuits badly.. but i will try not to. as i know i shouldnt. as i know i shouldnt even skydive or drive my little, crazy, fast car for that matter.. “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.
