Meux 0 #29 July 8, 2005 How about a suit that is loaded with sensors connected to a microprocessor that record every body position in flight. On the ground the readout recommends "a little more right leg pressure will speed up that block move." Or how about a four way team all connected in the same way where the computor recommends movements for the team. Sync it in time to the video guy and have the recommended movement highlighted in some way on the video. Something to the effect of this is what you did, this is what you should've done. Hook it up to the comm system that everyone will be wearing. Instead of having five voices on a 4 way jump (4 plus video) there will be six, four plus the video plus bitching betty. Whoever designs and builds this needs to have me on their team as a consultant and test jumper. World Peace Mo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NickDG 23 #30 July 8, 2005 The Japanese already invented an "airbag suit" for motorcycle riders, I saw it about year ago somewhere on the net. Our problem would be swoopers rolling right off the DZ and through surrounding neighborhoods mowing down everything in their path . . .
