Purple Mike is at the Blue Sky Ranch!!
VectorBoy replied to Birdman_Mike's topic in Wing Suit Flying
I loved that whole tread! It rocked! -
Yeah but that thing is SOOOOO NOT Southern Cal cool So true jeanie, but everybody knows I'm not over-compensating for other shortcomings. Besides I also have a jeep and a buell to realign me with the SoCal sensibilities. Confession: I'm just on a mission to make it to one million miles and then we are going to push it out of a skyvan... if Skyvans exist when I get there. Confession#2 close personal friends and family are actually hostile to the fact I still have the yota and it runs good. Mechanic friends say I owe japanese "mo money".

Maybe JP got tired of seeing people do things in an unsafe and willy-nilly way I agree with this observation. Its a shame how the discipline of wing suits is far and away leading all of the others in reckless unnecessary risk taking by a very large margin. -
Tequila does. Once opened it should be consumed shortly there after. Preferably without clothing.

and no-one wants to talk to them because they do not fit in socially anyways. Quote This is true. There is something very very wrong with the bulk of them. -
Get a Toyota or a Honda. Yeah, I know, everybody has one, but there's good reason for that. Both makes are very reliable and not nearly as expensive to maintain or repair as the European imports are. Chick that is the most word thing you've said eva! I just passed 480k on my yota. It will not die.

Yes that is so f...... annoying! What upsets me in wingsuit flying is absolutely nothing, it is all good...... If it upset me I wouldn't attend. Well that nakid picture of the gramma was pretty upsetting but after a while it is just .... Heh. If its considered an argument, would the term narrow minded describe the people on both sides of this tired old discussion? Would it include persons describing a suit as too big and glidey to fly comfortably in the average flock, Too much for the average pilot? Or are they victims too? Or are they just funny?

I agree it must have been a wonderous event, its a great and inspiring video and thats mutually agreed apon fantastic sentiment in the bulk of your post. Except the little bit of whiney ness towards the end. This is the wingsuit forum there is no whining allowed ( refer to the Rdub forum). It might detract from otherwise uplifting contributions of text or video that you or others might post. Stay positive and keep your glide up SadMax.

And yes James, I realize this is a matter of history and not "BM vs PF", but in reality "history is written by the winners" is applicable, or in this case history is slanted by the brandwar. Quote I tuned in and it had Susanne Sommers and Jenna Jamesen as inventers of the wing suit. I don't know for sure that they didn't so I left it just like that. -
We had three or four V-1s at the Lodi boogie. The ones that were in the base didn't have to fly their V-1s @ 50% With their legs on their ass to stay in the flock. They played nice with the classics and GTIs. Most of them exibited control equal to anyone else. In fact we'll say as well as their SKILLS ( not their suit) would allow. This is the wingsuit forum not the RDUB forum. YOU will not be allowed to blame crappy personal flying on the wrong suit, the wrong weight belt or wrong full face helmet. And you better smile on the jump!!!!! The assumption that having a V-1/ or 2 is too much for formation, or flocking or everyday regular flying or is a vanity/ ego purchase and that they can't be flown on the back side as well as any other NON backvented suit is just ignorant. Or the last line of denial. Get over it. S-3 state of the art? Sure back in 2004, good suit I got two of em. I see that they haven't advanced the design much since then despite the hoopylaa. I leave that at that. The argument that the vampires are not the right tool for the everyday job is just bullshit. I've personally seen it excell on the job, in just everyday regular flying. "Is there such a thing as too much range"? < Chris Rock voice off> Here is a poll for you poll lovers: How long before Scott C and monkeyone get Vampires? I'm serious.

So what are these differences? I'm curious.

Oregon "ALL OF THE ABOVE BOOGIE", Who Will Be there??
VectorBoy replied to sdctlc's topic in Wing Suit Flying
Will fish hook be there or will he be too busy BASE'n? Maybe I shouldn't call him that on a forum he can't defend himself on or do you guys use it as a term of endearment ?Haven't heard from him a almost a year. Getting tickets now. -
Whats the big difference between the S-6 and the S-3? Up front I notice its got an extra cell in the leg wing portion anything else besides the mylar inserts?
-
That should work much better that hamsters wrapped in electrical tape.

I really wish people(WS community) would focus less on the the drama and more on the fun of flying. Hey now, I'm all about the funk. Just ask my flunky flocking friends. -
A duck or not, he is to be reckoned with thats for sure.
-
Do it!!!!! Whats the worst that can happen? More chicks?!? Up sizing a wingsuits is not like downsizing a canopy. Do you even know BillVon? He is one of the most insane "over- the-top" wingsuits guys on the west coast. Bill didn't wait for hundreds of wingsuit jumps before getting a big suit himself. I'll tell you what Bill would do.... Bill would go big!!!!! PS have seen BillVons chicks? Even they have big suits.

Well, in Germany I'd be "Herr Doktor Professor" Do you mean Germany as in the home of the original V-2? Then they might call you Doktor buzz bomb.

Daz-right. I'm as riff~raffy as they come! Arrrgghh. -
He wouldn't want to be the only one in Texas with a non - hand me down Birdman wingsuit He just proposed........ They ain't wasting any precious wedding monies on a new wingsuit. Hand me down it has to be.

If Dr. Kallend wants to buy an inferior suit, that his business. Kallend is not a doctor he is a Professor,..........Professor.

Jason, you know nobody listens to me........which is a good thing.

Jason isn't gay he is just Texsexual. Which is hard for the east/west coasters to understand.

I think she was trying to get marinated. Don't touch my pee pee over that one please.

Instead of woolite. I have it on good authority that you can use victoria secrets fine washable detergent. One of the socal flockers wives washed his summer nasty suit in her victoria's secret fine washable detergent and he gets the freshest look from all of the female tandem passengers.True story.
