New Distance World Record Can't Post

We would like to compliment Bruno Broken for his new world record 155.52 m, establish at Skydive Lillo in Spain during the last round of the competition.

The organization is trying its best to make the record official, but we were all there, he swooped the course and amazed all the competitors and visitors with his skills.

Thanks Bruno

I would also like to thank Ainoa Boyd for allowing me to use her pictures for this post

Thank you

Congrats to Mr. Broken. Do you have info on canopy, wingloading, winds, weights, etc...?

Weights: he is a big guy, he does not use weights
Canopy: Velocity, not sure about the size, but small (at least for me)
Winds: 8Knots downwind (if i remember well)

Re: [madflying] New Distance World Record [In reply to] Can't Post

I am confused 155.52 meters or 510.25 feet is an awesome swoop (can't take anything away from Bruno for this), but people have gone farther in the past. Like Jay Moledski going 678 feet in 2005. Have I been sleeping at the wheel and someone decided to strip Jay of his 678 foot swoop? Why is this swoop now claimed as a world record swoop?

that is why I said that the organization, skydive lillo, is trying to homologate the distance.

I believe that Jaymo "reset" his world record last year after the new weight restricions were in place. I don't know what his distance on that one was, but I'm guessing that Bruno's broke Jay's record from last year.

Detailed infos please, especially about the winds, thanks!
On the video you can see a blade for a moment and the downwind looks pretts strong, I´d like to know how strong it was and if it was coming straight or at an angle.

I would like to add that Jay jumps a prototype, different trim and way more, while Mr Brokken jumps a standard velocity....

And Bruno,... are your clothes dry yet?

You're right, but do you think he would be competing with a prototype if it wasn't better then the original itself? That would be (in my eyes) pointless.
