Congrats on your first flights.
Welcome to the flock!
Just keep pulling high for a while and you probably won't die.

So you have an AFF rating and consider yourself to be a wingsuit instructor, and condone someone with 80 jumps being sent up on a wingsuit?
Right, your judgement seems sound.

I agreee... What exactly did you expect to hear? I mean look at the title of your OWN thread, which YOU posted. You obviously know that you went against the recomended/manufacturer mandated (birdman) suggestions. What did you expect people to say?

Never said I agreed just pointing out your short comings -- since you always seem to be the one to flame everyone else.
And for the record I don't consider myself a wingsuit instructor (as you do)-----I am one

Since there does not seem to be a single universally accepted "wingsuit instructor" qualification, I guess anyone who has ever given any instruction in the use of a wingsuit can call themselves a wingsuit instructor too.
The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

Exactly, that is why jumpers wanting to learn to fly a wingsuit should choose wisely as to the instruction they are getting, as well as who they are getting it from, and not the just some Yahoo with an extra wingsuit......

And how does someone new judge wisely? The roster? A patch? The one with the most extra suits? I say pick the one who has easy financing or offers the three easy payment options.
I never met a "yahoo with an extra suit" that I didn't like. On the flipside some ( not all!) of those guys on the roster with their patches............are down twisted!

Glen, lets not turn this into something stupid, like who got a patch in a bar thing. There is already enough stupid shit posted on this forum these days to make anyone avoid it anyway.
It's not hard for someone to do alittle asking around as to would be better for giving some instruction, patch or no patch.......

and its not as i was nagging his ear for it. it was the other way around.
he gave me what i believed to be a thorough briefing for over an hour. i practised opening stable a lot, checked my handles, how to undo the wings and so on..
bad?
