  3. Quote[QUOTE]On a side note: In the history of human beings, has anybody ever efficiently max-tracked totally naked at terminal without a rig on? Perhaps that is one of the few remaining frontiers of true human flight….ha ha.[/QUOTE] hehe, you first, bro! ******* I wouldn't do it without protection ;-) ---------- Fumer tue, péter pue ------------- ourson #10, Mosquito Uno, CBT 579
  4. salut pascal, je pense qu'il y a pas trop de problème pour ça... quel est ton poids total équipé ??? avant d'acheter une sabre 190, tu veux pas essayer une 170 ??? même en étant pas un gars qui envoie de la mort qui tue, c'est quand même plaisant de descendre et avancer un peu plus... ---------- Fumer tue, péter pue ------------- ourson #10, Mosquito Uno, CBT 579

  7. I might be able to do a T-10 soon, I would like to do a static line, never tried a static line ---------- Fumer tue, péter pue ------------- ourson #10, Mosquito Uno, CBT 579
  8. well actually most paraglider constructors now do their prototypes in a smaller size and do all the development at lower costs... at the beginning, just from any slope... parapente (paraglider) is a compression of parachute de pente, slope parachute... The first paragliders were raiders and stuff like that to which they had taken off the slider and the extractor, but they needed a hell of a slope... now a glide rate of 8 and a fall rate of 1.2 m/s is normal... ---------- Fumer tue, péter pue ------------- ourson #10, Mosquito Uno, CBT 579
  9. session is normally 2.5 min... but you can split like if you're 2 do half half... ---------- Fumer tue, péter pue ------------- ourson #10, Mosquito Uno, CBT 579
  10. paraglider from paraglider... these "toy kites" as you say can be quite powerful... I have myself "toy kites" bigger than many people have their main canopy... 110 sq ft... the largest now are 250 sq feet but not like paraglider style, more single sided for water power kiting called flysurf or kitesurf you can check robbie naish's site for example, or advance paragliders/kites site www.advance.ch surface is shown in sq meters (approx 1sq m is 10 sq ft) and these things can really make you fly... some guys already basejumped bridges with paragliders doing mc conkey stuff... some pics on www.babylon-freefly.com ---------- Fumer tue, péter pue ------------- ourson #10, Mosquito Uno, CBT 579
  11. I didn't go, but several friends did. If you go for RW, anytime, if it's for FF, special dates for that. It seems to be great, some are going back for 30 minutes in the tunnel ---------- Fumer tue, péter pue ------------- ourson #10, Mosquito Uno, CBT 579
  12. for me not... ---------- Fumer tue, péter pue ------------- ourson #10, Mosquito Uno, CBT 579
  13. well... not much more I think... actually I have my toggles in the middle of the hand, not in the fingers... you need much more strength with just 2 fingers... moreover with many canopies, the brakes are set quite short and any input on the risers will have a negative influence on the flight characteristics due to the brakes... ---------- Fumer tue, péter pue ------------- ourson #10, Mosquito Uno, CBT 579
  14. scary what people can do with a jetski... trying high speed enema or what ??? ---------- Fumer tue, péter pue ------------- ourson #10, Mosquito Uno, CBT 579
  15. up to you to translate : Encore aujourd'hui, de nombreuses personnes, en ecrivant le chiffre sept utilisent une barre supplementaire horizontale au milieu du chiffre. La plupart des typographies l'ont fait disparaitre aujourd'hui, comme vous pouvez le constater ici : 7 Mais savez-vous pourquoi a survecu cette barre jusqu'a nos jours ? Il faut remonter bien loin, aux temps bibliques. Lorsque Moise eut gravi le mont Sinai, et que les 10 commandements lui furent dictes, il redescendit vers son peuple et leur lut, a haute et forte voix, chaque commandement. Arrive au Septieme, il enonca : "Tu ne desireras pas la femme de ton prochain" Et la, de nombreuses voix s'eleverent parmi le peuple lui criant: "Barre le sept, barre le sept !!!" ---------- Fumer tue, péter pue ------------- ourson #10, Mosquito Uno, CBT 579

  20. I have dive blocks instead of dive loops... better not to use the loops but grab your riser at the connector you take it higher = more movement and at least on my rig takes less strength ---------- Fumer tue, péter pue ------------- ourson #10, Mosquito Uno, CBT 579
