gus 1 #4 November 7, 2002 Very cool, thanks for putting it online. Video editing is no easy task but it looks good. That exit shot at about 3 mins 20 secs is just awesome Gus OutpatientsOnline.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

verticalflyer 11 #9 November 7, 2002 It was me, as you'll gather from the end credits if you wait that long, yes about 20 secs. First tried to kick it out then chopped my leg wing and tried some more, then aurm wings to really give it some. But as you can see it was now throughly wound up tight. So I chopped it, 2nd mal in 1000 jumps so not too bad but 2 more than I would of liked. I was watching the Alti and I hit my hard deck so got off it. First jump of the damn boogie too, still got it all back and was jumping again the next day thanks for Andy Fords repack that evening. Makes for nice vid, I have my other mal on video too and that was also my first camera jump. Glad you enjoyed the film. Cheers FraserDont just talk about it, Do it!

kevin922 0 #10 November 7, 2002 HEY!!! I just saw a guy with a black suit & green wings on the video, those are my colors!! Where did he get the green wings from? That isn't a standard birdman selection last time I checked.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That isn't a standard birdman selection last time I checked.. I suppose he is Mr Pekka Vanninen from the Parachuting Club of Kemi (in Northern Finland). The body of the suit is actually wery dark blue and the wings are bright green. It's an old GTi. Those colors are not in the standards, but I think BM will also make suits with custom colors.

vesatoro 0 #13 November 8, 2002 Quote 2.5 hours?? what are you on a dialup connection or something? My connection is a University LAN (outside traffic connection 155Mbps fullduplex Ethernet in FUNET network) so I suppose the problem was in the sender... I normally get about 100kbps in so it should have taken less than 10 minutes. A friend of mine was also having same the problem so maybe the ftp server was just too busy at the time.

Vesa Humm.. who knows, I had asked Kim if there were any other colors that weren't listed and she said no, so maybe it's an old color that they don't make anymore or something.. oh well - he's got a unique suit now :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
verticalflyer 11 #15 November 8, 2002 QuoteSWEET VID!!!!! (oh sorry..was I too loud???) Glad you liked it made dealing with the PC every time it crashed worth it. Next time I shall be asking for directed shots as it was difficult to maintain continuity through the film. Cheers FraserDont just talk about it, Do it!

fergs 0 #16 November 11, 2002 Fraser, Wow, what a great video!!! My 14 year old came in to see what all the noise was about - and being the son of a long time jumper has seen every skydiving video under the sun (and is usually indifferent to them). Well on your vid he freaked out just as I had. He's insisting on taking a copy to school to show. So congratulations, a great job and thanks for doing all the hard work putting it together!!! Unfortunately, i have yet to make a wingsuit jump. But I have a GTi on order and am looking forward to jumping it soon. Problem is I live in the middle east and so oportunities to skydive are limited. But we have a mini boogie in early december for 4 days at a DZ in UAE. So I'll bust my boiler to try and make 10 or so jumps a day - all on the GTi. Thanks again for a great video!! fergs Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
