Just want people who want to try it to be safe.
;)

I blew up one canopy because I did not slow down enough.. needless to say that was one HARD ass slammer opening:S

And I windburned my face so badly on that dive that I actually had peeling like a sunburn a few days later. but.. the dive was over 300 MPH... and I did not pull out of the dive at 5500.. it was the 2nd dytter alarm at 4500.... I did not even hear the first one go off at 5500... not bright... not bright at all...
Ignorance of the dynamics of speed diving can get you hurt.. or worse.



Yup! SF is all about safety, 21000 jumps and one broken leg. yes knocking on wood.......

So here is the official list of added events to SF08
Seminar of how to Speed Skydive by ours truly Amazon
An official US (U Speed) competition for those interested.
A NOVICE event or ground coaching which includes a coach jump with a professional. Per Amazon!

Well then, whats next?!!!

It was meant as a joke...but thank you for the info - I can see where there would need to be a lot of experience and planning for something like that!

250+ @5500 to 120 @ 2500... that's a hell of a lot of deceleration!



You ain't kidding there. I hit 224 mph on the first attempt I ever made at a speed dive with a borrowed Pro Track. I pulled out of the dive at 5000, and dumped at 2500 and I still had a brisk opening because I hadn't bled off enough speed. But man, what a trip that was! My helmet was vibrating really hard!

I'm looking forward to this. I have not been to Chester in a few years. Maybe I can convince some of the RoamingDZ crowd to make the trip since Dublin is not going to happen. Just so everyone knows, if I do anything this year it is going to be small so you might want to save your money and plan on going to Chester for this. I hope the DZ keeps an eye on this and plans for aircraft accordingly. We have been known to cause a problem in that department. (cough..Z-hills '05...cough)



what ya talking about willis?????

OMG, I love this J. Not that I didn't love TX but this is so great that it will be close and I can plan on being there the whole time since it is in the summer.

So what can we do to help?????

If you are serious about the speed event I would love to do it!!



I'd like to get in on that. The ISSA hasn't had a US competition since I started speeding about 12 months ago.....I can't afford to travel to Europe for that. :)
Best top speed so far was 286 mph, but I don't have the software to figure my averages through the time trap.
