mccordia 73 #1 January 16, 2007 If you go to http://www.bird-man.com/, in the media/video section, there is a new video there from the Pink Skyvan weekend at Zell Am See. click here for a direct download link. The flying was a bit messy at times (some nice big funnels and bumps in this video) but we had great fun and everyone learnt a lot that weekend. Some fun experiments with video editing, watch fullscreen for the max experience) hope you enjoy it! Amd do join us in November this coming year. Flocking from the skyvan at one of the most beautifull dropzones in Europe! Maybe with a few days of skiing/snowboarding attachedJC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

The wing doesn't seem to be solidly inflated (it's bowed and smooth at the bottom, but that's because the air is hitting it at 45 degrees and he's cupping the air... just like monosurface wing i.e. Prodigy's is smoothed out by air. From the top view, there doesn't seem to be a good internal pressure.) Can he share his observations about inflation, fit, and maxing out? P.S. Watched the video again, the guy in red V-2 - same problem. The top closeup view shows terribly creased arm sleave, choked vents, and poorly inflated wing. Never seen anything like this in other suits! I guess, a trip to a local taylor is in order. Sad! But on the other hand, the type of performance I've experienced in properly balanced (although creased and poorly inflated) V-2 totally blew me away! It's when you can no longer see where you're going, you just see the ground and clouds pass by below you. You have to lift your head up and arch to see where you're going, and that destroys the glide, so you don't do it often, and that's scary. Flying at canopy glide ratios is scary and beautiful!

It all started when I got my new V2. I never had any problems before with the other V2's I've flown. I've been hiding this secret for way too long now. Maybe I was just in denial all this time. I've been talking to our brand new master rigger Gunnar about it and he's working on it with me. Now the repairing process has started I hope to get my issues resolved soon!
