The chin on the chest creates more drag. That´s not the best way for performance, I guess. The rear section design of the helmet helps to reduce the turbulence behind the head. The streamliners in the past up to now use this shape. The solar power driven vehicles use it (they recognize every small improvement). The ski jumper use the top design with positive results in the windchannel. (Tests from Uvex) And now the bicyclist (GS1 teams/ Tour de France) invest more than 1 billion $ every year in this sport- for the reason that they get the highest sponsoring of all sports in the world. I worked for a GS1- team for years and I promise, they just intresting in "results" Honestly... the "Lunatic" doesn`t help an unexperienced pilot to win a competition but it helps to keep the head straight, and probably it gives a bit of lift (selfconfidence

I saw Wonderlucky with a very small view gap, which is recomended for solo jumps, only. But the other ones got a bigger windshield; very close to the eyes, which gives a good visibility; or complete without shield (jet helmet) don´t pester the jester . . or better: WHY SO SERIOUS ? ? www.pralle-zeiten.de

This job is done! The Lunatic went by itself in the opposite body line direction. It takes actually a bit power to look down. And by the way, Kris... Will you make it for our competition after the date has changed (20.-22.07.)? You welcome to test jump the Lunatic... For anyone who doubt the aerodynamic quallities of this soul carrying head cover- it´s made by a German

I tried aerodyn. bicyclist- helmet; I just draw a mark in my goggles to remind me not to pull the reserve but the Lunatic is absolut fine; it´s very smooth; 190gramm without visor just one problem: Wonderlucky needs about three weeks to build one Lunatic don´t pester the jester . . or better: WHY SO SERIOUS ? ? www.pralle-zeiten.de

you must talk to wondergirl in a dirty way- she loves that the first jump with the first lunatic was a "night jump" in a sunny morning - fogging foggy now it´s perfect- the windshield is seperated from nose/ mouth piece and air inlets keep the shield clear don´t pester the jester . . or better: WHY SO SERIOUS ? ? www.pralle-zeiten.de

Sorry birds, here some pics for the thread drift... and it got full hydraulics, so it can fly a bit also "There´s no life like low life" What´s about the DZ traveller Fury? don´t pester the jester . . or better: WHY SO SERIOUS ? ? www.pralle-zeiten.de

Check out the "Lunatic" carbon/cevlar helmet. Wonderlucky sponsored it for our competition. It´s not possible to buy this master piece- only superheros can get it for free: Hulk/ Flash/ Sue Storm/ etc...

Due to unforeseen circumstances it is not possible to hold Skyjester´s Wings Over Marl; on the planned date and guarantee a safe and efficient competition. Therefore we have decided to move the competition forward to the 21st / 22nd of July. Training jumps can be done out of our Grand Caravan on the 19th and 20th of July. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and hope that, despite the date change, you can still take part. We will, of course, return any entrance fees paid by competitors who cannot take part on the new date.

Hi, I´ve done 550 WS jumps alternately Silhoulette and Pilot. Allways perfect- doesn´t matter how stupid I act I´ve done asymetrical pulls also (ClassicII; S3) it causes sometimes a bit of a twist, but never scary shit. don´t pester the jester . . or better: WHY SO SERIOUS ? ? www.pralle-zeiten.de

Yes, inspired by a glider. Unfortunately it doesn´t look as cool as a jet fighter. The first Jester suit was completely different. The main wingarea was located at the hips (center of gravity) The larger wingspan with "solids" needs much less muscle power than the previous shape Any explanations ? ? don´t pester the jester . . or better: WHY SO SERIOUS ? ? www.pralle-zeiten.de

The first real endorphin shot in the sky was with a suit by you guys (BM) when you was 3 years old Now you´re 8 years and I had many more... THX don´t pester the jester . . or better: WHY SO SERIOUS ? ? www.pralle-zeiten.de

I apreciate that motivation to enhance our sport. Suggestion: Keep it simple- otherwise you got to much problems to sort out at your first event. There are not to much wingsuit pilots around who are willing to prove their skills (it´s easier to talk) Boogies, flocks, world records -that´s magnets, because there is not a single pilot in the spotlight with his results. We organized the first and second int. wingsuit comp. with big prize money and just now, for the third one with more than 5000,- Euro prizes to win, the number of competitors is what we expect. It´s good that you have Klaus from Paralog, he was also a big help for us. If you create a poster for your event, we will post it at our comp.... don´t pester the jester . . or better: WHY SO SERIOUS ? ? www.pralle-zeiten.de

You´re so right! That´s why the stage 2 wingtype is quite narrow but down to the ankles. So they become a kind of leg wing also (larg leg wing on both sides of the legs). The arms not become as tired as holding the wings with the forearms. The surface is changeable with the arm position while you flying. I´m sure you´ve got the experience of creating something new and beeing excited about the result while you´re flying. It works not always to copy the nature, but in this way the shape of a "swallow" bird creates a good performance. Will you "swallow" that?

This was our second prototype in 2002. It was made with exchangeable wings. The first jumps with the large leg wing makes the flight to much head down. We cut the gap in the leg wing and that´s it. The wings works in two stages. The center of the body weight is supported by the wings and save lots of muscle power from the arms. They just end behind the elbows, so the angle of power is differentiate from Win Tsung. The surface was already larger than the most other suits. The first wings were even larger and it was neccesary to fly on the back for a moment, to reach it. The adrenalin of this action stoped me from further jumps. So we fitted a student rip cord to the rig. I never had the intention to make money with it. I like to see the new wingsuit generations comes more similar to the shape of my creation. OK, my one looks ugly but the aerodynamics in relation to the human bodyshape/ -weight are exemplary.

Thank you for the "insight". Looks like somebody get the message, don´t mind the words... I don´t take myself serious- I take the gravity of the system serious but I don´t respect it. I guess, the best way to confuse the evil (system) is to make it ridiculous. It´s so difficult to control if nobody got fear or respect. Every minute can be the time to turn it over around

Thanks for the interesting history. ...and it is a pure coincidence that the opposite of jumping out of a flying object is to jump from a "base". Exact the word which will come in everybody´s mind who jumps from something fixed to the ground... from millions of possible words Maybe this guys got base already in their subconscious from somebody else... whatever. If the buildings - antennas - spans - earth description is the best of human´s brain result, I rather be a goblin, a dwarf or a troll don´t pester the jester . . or better: WHY SO SERIOUS ? ? www.pralle-zeiten.de

Sorry for beeing simple! I guess somebody "very important" (not even a BASE jumper) tried once to find out what the meaning is of the four letters B A S E and the result was B ridges - A ntennas - S hit - E tc. ...and the people follow... "base" means not from a flying/moving subject, it just means from a f***ing base. WHO KNOWS NOTHING- HAVE TO BELIEVE EVERYTHING! So, what´s up? Just keep it simple... don´t pester the jester . . or better: WHY SO SERIOUS ? ? www.pralle-zeiten.de
