wingsuit camera

Recommended Posts

I haven't flown a wingsuit but I was wondering for those of you who fly camera in your suit, what is deployment like? I've heard some people tell me when you deploy it jerks you back in the opposite direction, which sounds like it would be a killer on the neck if you had cameras on your head. So what do you do for deployment?

When I deploy in a wingsuit I go to a closed wing arch, so I'm basically back in the start of freefall for a split second. My deployments could then be considered the same wingsuit or not and camera or not. I try to avoid the trap door effect of deploying from a fast flight. Since I deploy this way I don't rotate my bag gromet to pin and don't have cut corners on my containers.
