Courteney 0 #1 August 17, 2004 Hey there, Heard from someone who had been to the Herc Boogie that there was +-3 Cypres fires and they were all on wingsuits. Was just wondering if that was true and IF so, what happened. Cheers, Courteney....drags me down like some sweet gravity!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cpoxon 0 #2 August 17, 2004 Wrong. Did Simon tell you that? There were 3 separate 2-canopy out incidents, 2 of which were wingsuit related and have already been discussed but they were not Cypres fires.Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
schwede 0 #3 August 17, 2004 Just one and no Wingsuit... Funny though that it was the tallest and shortest WS-person of them all at the herc boogie who had this malfunctionSchwede "Das Leben ist schön, nicht immer aber immer öfter" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Courteney 0 #4 August 17, 2004 Yep! Suggested I must get a Cypres as I'm getting my first wingsuit soon. Will be the first local jumper in my country to have one. And although I know Birdman suggests having one, finacialy atm I can't afford it. (will get one sometime). So he used that as an example. Thanks for the thread btw. Can tell him the truth when he returns from the states. Take it easy. Courteney....drags me down like some sweet gravity!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
