superstu 0 #1 July 6, 2006 I have posted a short video with 4 swoops on skydivingmovies.com showing the difference between a VX 84(orange) and a JVX 87 (white). movie title "JVX vs. VX" in the landing and swooping forum. the pilot is the same, wingloadings are the same, conditions are rougly the same, the gates on the JVX runs are set further back, and the camera angle on the JVX runs are further away from the gates. VX run 1: 300' JVX run 1: 356' VX run 2: 250' (roughly, i don't remember fully) JVX run2: 326' this is meant to be a side by side comparison as much as possible. questions welcomeSlip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shadowswoop97 0 #3 July 6, 2006 nice video Stu, though it looks like different days and different runs though. How long ago was the JVX swoops, seems like you were generating more power in Colorado, Iknow the altitude, but for real I bet your going even further now, oh yea hows the body treating you after that spill with the wind blade, talk to you later.

superstu 0 #4 July 6, 2006 the vx swoops were from the last cpc competition of last year in august. the jvx swoops were at our 1st cpc competition this year in may. my turn did slightly change, however, last year i averaged 275' for my swoops on the VX 84 and now i'm averaging about 350' on my JVX. i'm also going a shit load faster and have more power.Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shadowswoop97 0 #5 July 6, 2006 definately, I know hwat you mean, I can feel and see a difference in the last 100 jumps, and it keeps on getting sweeter. i can't wait to get my new 79 JVX Hybrid, I get to load this thing correctly now. Under my 85 I am at a 2.3-2.4 depending on my bod weight, now with the 79 I will finally be at 2.5-2.6 Look out boys if you think I was fast before. All in all though stu keep it up looking consistent and smooth man, Nice flying, wish the second half of the comp went better for you, You gonna be at the Festival? See you there, Nick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
