RayLosli 11 #7 October 19, 2005 Just a educated guess from the limited info given. exit linked/mr. bill then here is my Questions ? Was the exit a PCA for the 1st Canopy inflated/Out ? or was it a Go&Throw When was the 2nd Canopy deployed prior to - the Leg-Lock, into the Down-Plane ? was this @ BD ? . It's not as easy as it sounds. Having done some Mr.bills from a 182. Most are screwed-up @ the Exit. So this is a pretty nifty little stunt. for a BASE jump .

Triaxial 0 #8 October 19, 2005 QuoteFor the benefit of those not there - care to explain what went down - and as always, video would prove it This awesome stunt, aerial phenom or whatever you want to call it will be available on the truely spectacular BD 2005 DVD available for shipping by Christmas 2005. We were able to get this from many different angles. And best of all the Triax T-stake made it possible. Kenyon www.triaxproductions.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Ronald 0 #9 October 19, 2005 Exit: 1st canopy was PCA. Doing a go&throw is possible but 1) is more dangerour because of risk of tumbling (with possibly a PC in tow) and 2) consumes more altitude. About when the 2nd canopy was deployed? I did see the jump from the bridge (and taped it) but could not really see it from that distance. It took some time before it was done which could indicate that they transition in a leg-lock took time. They could have waited however to perform the downplane above the LZ. Only themselves can really tell. And yes, I have 2 Mr.Bills, from an aircraf.

Started as a PCA'd Mr. Bill to an uncommanded deployment while still hanging on... canopies started to downplane before they figured out they better go to plan B and let go. I'll let the guilty parties involved elaborate if they wish... although I think the next day one of them was running around in a tight pink T-shirt with 'FLYCHICKS' written on it... and NO, he wasn't a chick...

Very cool jump. Bertrand also jumped the "Shepard" costume last year and is featured on IMAX: Adrenaline Rush.(c)2010 Vertical Visions.
