EDIT: i see now its the american flag- but later on rather than use the toggle he creates a loop in the line and uses it to turn



He's pulling on the outside A line. Esentialy a front riser dive but on big canopies the riser has way to much pressure so you just pull on that one line and away you go.

and I will give you 10 cool points



Fast forward to 3:48 and/or 4:16 to see the intense part of my video if you do not want to watch the whole thing. By the way I am not the crazy mofo walking on my hands and if I told you who it was I would have to kill you. :)

That was pretty much the perfect wingsuit jump.
You really would not want to go much lower.

Of course it looks like he did land on his rears. :)

Saved himself much pain by landing on the other side of the hill !!

Keeping it skydiving, here's a demo we did into a dry dock in Amsterdam.

Crosswind, up hill landing, over the dock wall, and under a 100ft crane that the military were meant to have taken down the zip wires. They didnt.

Ok, I was reluctant to post this when I first finished the editing, for two reasons:

1 - It was stupid of me to invite two of the skydivers in this jump...you'll know which ones.
2 - I don't want to embarrass anyone, or have any of my friends labeled as "that guy," but the lesson this vid provides well overrides that feeling.

This is a vid of my 200th skydive...and it epitomizes why you should always know the skill levels (or lack thereof) of those you invite on a skydive. Please disregard the mint I forgot to chew up before exit - it did leave me in freefall, though...lol

I await my 10 cool points...just kidding, nothing cool about this.

Surely the 'crazy' hair on his helmet should have given him away.

If i'd been the cameraman, that chap would have a new bum hole by now.

Crazy hair? Not sure what you're referring to.

Edited to add:

No one on this jump is wearing "crazy hair" - there are a couple of strips of velcro on the top of my helmet (from trying a key fob spy cam last year...for one jump.)

My bad. It looked like the chap that FU was wearing some kind of helmet attachment.
