speeds and GR

Recommended Posts

depends what there is to in the air (flying with others, cloudsurfing, tandem buzzing...) or what people on the ground would prefer to see (or if someone else would take the "other way" for comparison in a demo)

As much as I enjoy high speed, I also like to have a maximum "time for value" of my jump ticket (just to get my time back from the freefly jumps) :)
So I would vote "all of the above" :D

Assuming a constant 2.5 glide ratio, at what speeds would you rather fly?
Me, I like the 125mph part B|



Pretty difficult assumption to satisfy over that speed range.

The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

Exactly what pretty word will satisfy you? Take out the "constant" part?
Do you prefer: 'assuming a GR of 2.5 during X seconds'?
And don't gimme no physic law stuff answer, Newton never jumped a wingsuit..

Do you prefer '2.5 average GR' ?
