RayLosli 11 #29 October 12, 2005 Man I really like that F-jpg very much. Very BASE and that Suit !. Has really struck a nerve in me. Half, Tracking suit -&- Half, WingSuit. Also the concept of the Integrated Harness Container system. Very stream-line. Very Futuristic. The idea of having a integrted Rig and Suit. As One machine of fabric and hardware. Has always been in the back of my mind. . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An incredible life changing experience. Would you be interested to do some work with us in the future? Either for our website or an advert? Soon you'll be needing track pants and then a wingsuit!!

Well, no shit... you're at it already? AFF? WOOHOO! You didn't mess around, man. One day you're saying you'd like to be one of us someday, shortly thereafter you're acting on it and making it happen. With that kind of determined action you'll have a set of your own wings in no time... " be able to share flight with you guys one day." "one day" might not be as far off as it looks from here.... once you get going, a few jumps under your belt, things tend to speed up. I think "one day" might arrive a lot sooner than you think. For some reason I'm surprised....after a few years in the sport I've noticed out of every 100 wannabes who say "yeah I'll do that someday", for most of em someday never comes, you're lucky if one in a hundred ever even tries AFF, let alone becomes a Birdman. Congrats on getting started, rock on! It WILL change your life, living out your wildest brightest fantasies does that. Split a cloud with you sometime soon, man. Expect a warm welcome when you show up at Skydive Pepperell, eh? First time you surf a cloud, you'll howl, too. Another new bird on his way up....FUCK, YEAH!

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites vyle 0 #47 November 28, 2005 Well, got mildy lucky with the weather (got 4 days of wind out of 6 ...) but managed to get my aff. Did 12 jumps in 2 days, including the two solos and the hop and pop. Had to redo level 3 and 4 (stability issue due to not being relaxed at all, thanks to my instructor for stopping the spin!) then it all went smoothly. Had the chance to sit right next to some wingsuit guys, they probably thought I was a weirdo as I tried to look at every inch of their equipment while on the load... After those few jumps, I am even more amazed at what you guys do. It was a very humbling experience. Need to work freelance again to get my A license now...
