I'm up to about the 1:15 mark in your video progression... and your experiences up to that part seem like a mirror of mine so far. It's good to know progression is possible. Thanks for sharing that!

The overall video is over about 18 months but the majority of the flying has been in 2012, I'm at about 16-17 hours for the year.http://www.mixcloud.com/prajna http://vimeo.com/avidya Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The video shows that there is possibility for progression. I am at about 1 hour and 20 minutes and I'm going to start back flying next weekend. I have a question if you don't mind? How long did it take you to start back flying? Just trying to gauge haw far along I am compared to others? Thanks Lovin every second of it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Squeak 17 #11 November 20, 2012 very nice work dude, you're killing my progression, I have 11 hours and fly like i have 5-6Old man and slow learner You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS!

BigBUG 0 #12 November 20, 2012 Proper instructors are a blast :) We have here in S-Pete Fabian (Ramsey) and Alex from Skywalkers for a visit, and their students just rocks! I could say that they are like 20-40% effective than 'avegage' student flyer. Awesome clip, thanks for sharing! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
piisfish 137 #13 November 20, 2012 I love Ramsy, he is an incredible flyer and a great person altogether. Say hi to him from Fish scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
markbdaniels 0 #14 November 20, 2012 Awesome vid. Its got me excited. Im thinking of moving over to the UK, just so that I can hit the windtunnels :) Any idea on how much you spent on 20 hours? Im guessing alot of the time was shared with other flyers and not all of it was coached? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigBUG 0 #15 November 20, 2012 Quote I love Ramsy, he is an incredible flyer and a great person altogether. Say hi to him from Fish will do yes, he rocks :) we are lucky to have him here for the whole month :) speaking back to subject and this cool vid, I noticed that you Americans use kind of different approach, like 'first you do all the static like backfly, sitfly, headdown on normal speeds and then will be transitions'. Europeans guys here are more like dynamic flyers, they do not teach postures and positions much, but make heavy accent on movements and transitions, even from the very begining. Both schools give great flyers, I just wonder which is more effective. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dahlem 0 #16 November 21, 2012 For me personally, it took me about an hour to get really good with belly, on my back I'm at about 80 minutes and about to start Sitfly. Backfly can take a bit more time because you have to learn rolls and basic Belly-Back & Back-Belly transitions along with everything else. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bilt2ride 0 #18 November 22, 2012 Excellent vid. I'm at 20 hours presently and your transitions are smoking mine. Great job!If this is your first night, you have to fight. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sebinoslo 0 #19 December 7, 2012 nice project! i think it would be really useful to people starting in the tunnel if you could put milestones: after 1h after 5h after 10h etc. since there are some huge blanks: there is a split second of HD on the net and then you are flying stable HD. that way we can see how long was the belly training, the back training etc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hokierower 0 #21 December 8, 2012 Great video! I just finished up 2 hours at SVCO and managed to get head down. Next trip sometime next year is transitions and cleaning up back, sit, & head down. I'm at 4.5hrs total. Great instructors! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
