Some Wingsuit GPS tracks to take a gander at.

Recommended Posts

I have been using the garmin forerunner to collect GPS data on wingsuit jumps.

Here are photos/data of 2 jumps I did on Sunday.

Both were in a pretty cloudy sky(ground obscured by 1000 ft of cloud) where I was using the sun as my main reference point as to what direction to travel back to the DZ esp on the 2nd jump.

This is by no means a max track as I did not get the pilot to take me out so far I could directly track back consequently a large amount of the track was cross wind.

I am still browseing around for a gps analytic program to get more information from the gps data. Having x,y,z co-ords plus time just means simple trigonometery to calculate distances + velocity (vert + horz.)

I intend to check out gartrip and topofusion in the coming weeks

P.t.L.

No, Not without incident
