yoink 321 #2 July 31, 2007 Try a search for 'Ground Launching', 'Speed Flying' or 'Speed Skiing' and you'll turn up a fair number of results. Looks like we've got yet another term for it! What canopy were you using? Nice launch point though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

knot 0 #4 July 31, 2007 I think however is not equal to the standard 'Ground Launching' or another, because the departure is to 3 meters from a vertical rock. I cannot mistake the departure. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sysop 0 #7 August 4, 2007 1. Launch with very hard wind. 2. Launch without any canopy setup. Did you know all wind conditions before?www.speedflying.ru Mountian Fly School Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dploi 0 #8 August 6, 2007 Interesting launching the ITW. I've jumped there, but don't recall favorable conditions for a cliff launch. Did you go in the afternoon when the winds tend to pick up more? I've launched a skydiving canopy from a number of cliffs. I prefer a steady, strongish wind (10mph+) where I can kite in half brakes first to check the wind for consistency or "waves". Then I switch to rear risers and run off. How did you launch here? It was hard to tell in the video. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
