Naked Speed

[potatoman 0]

Did another naked this weekend. Speed was 320kph.

I am normally fast when flat flying, about 230 - 240, but never thought clothes made SO much of a difference.

Was your speeds as high?

I think I will pass on nekkid speed skydiving... since my average speeds in a suit are over 400 KPH.. and at the bottom of the dive as I break out to a track I am doing over 500KPH.. I do not think "the girls" would like that much air.

Ductape?

Anyways, at 500 it would sure get a lot of utube hits, and other hits.....

320kph belly to earth?
I had some uncomfortable flapping going on when tracking away at the end of a naked 4way formation but did not seem faster before that
The camera man in a jumpsuit was struggling to reach us so maybe we were falling faster than he expected
I am going to see if anyone logged the speed

My naked speed is slower than a nylon suit. Maybe I should shave more

Or your dangly bits provide more drag than the average.

a skin tight slippery suit should allow you to go faster then you do naked.

Not a pretty sight on some competitors... trust me on this.

Which begs the question: Which is worse, Skintight or Skin?



also, begs the question: Naked or Nekkid?

Just a question...i'm down to go naked...but i'm not going to lie and I have a small wang. Would ya'll laugh at me if I went naked with a small wang?
But think about it..small wang = less wind resistance.

You are on to something. I maintain that the guy in this video http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=436c67e5cb is inappropriately endowed for naked skydiving. Fortunately, I don't share that handicap.

You can always blame it on "shrinkage".

Every time I see that video, I cringe. However, a small little voice in the back of my mind wants to see this guy in real life. Not to do anything, mind you, but, holy crap, that must be impressive.

That would put you at #215 in the record books.

hahaha holy shit. that didnt look comfortable.

ive never done a naked jump, but once i had a pair of shorts with a zipper that never held up, and mid freefly my junk popped out for the entire dive. it felt liberating.

gravity brings me down.........

Well, Lisa, my address is ......... :-)

If you know how many guns you have - you don't have enough!

Nice!!!

I am going to go into a ball, nekkid, and see to what speed that gets me. I will report back.

What was your position on the 320kph jump?

I did a very steep dive, head down, hands to my side feet pointed but wasn't able to hold it for a prolonged period of time.

Tail, doggy....

Flat, and then turned onto my back(flat) cause I was falling away from the other guy. Suppose the speed was a bit higher on the back, but turned good footage.

Here.... this is a video from the Speed Skydiving site. Marco is the current World Record holder.

I REALLLLLY suggest a full face helmet and a couple of Pro-Tracks... one is a backup to the other.

Remember.. this.... you are attempting to turn a normal 60 second skydive into a 40 second skydive... and the hard bits that make up the planet... yeah.. not forgiving of forgetting what altitude you are at.
