  1. have put about 30 jumps on mine now and cant love it more! when I first got it I was unsure about it because it had so much power and the whole premise of being a suit that can be used in big ways and teaching students but after playing aroud with it I can't be happier about this suit!!!!
    big enough to do xrw even as I did multiple xrw jumps when i first got it and also some 40ish ways and it kept up perfectly, recently also did some FFC's with it and it handled and kept up beautifully with a lead brick student. the backfly on it is VERY easy to transition in and does pretty well back flying.
    overall it is exactly what they say it is on the website, and it for sure is a baby freak!

  2. just looking on USPA and FAI websites and noticed no one is hosting a nationals this year i can see for wingsuit performance flight but there is the FAI world meet, was wondering why the nationals was taken out or if im just not looking in the right area as i thought i remember seeing something about it being in august. anyone have any more info on this?

  3. looking at getting the freak but wanted to know if anyone has flown these with smaller to mid size suits and how easy it is to keep up with them? I want the freak for the xrw but want to be able to have a suit that can do normal flocks and keep with students fairly easy

  4. the basics are flocking(formation flight), acro(backfly and other freefly like stuff in a WS), preformance flight ( going for max speed, time or distance), and then you have artistic and 4 way sequentials competition( formations with points and more freefly style flying)

  5. im interested to see some more data come out about the C2 myself, especially after seeing the latest PPC results and how fast suits like the jedei were completely dominating in the speed category, the c2 i think maxed out at around 200 while jedei and scorp getting 260 plus

  6. i have to agree stalthy! i have met alot of these jumpers myself who by jump 75 are strapping on auras and apache rebels, some people just think they are cooler by flyng super suits early when they dont really even know how to fly theit body right,i myself am fairly new to the wingsuit world and i flew my swift for well over 100 jumps before i thought myself capable enough to get the funk,, after getting that i can easily say i have no need for anything bigger for awhile! but nothing can annoy me more then seeing these people who have less then 100 WS jumps or jump a wingsit maybe a few times a year with barely over 100 and jumping these supersized suits

  7. i agree as well, i as well own both and used the swift for about 100 or so jumps then i bought my funk, the transition at that point was not hard at all and i can tell ill have this suit for awhile because the amount of stuff it can do is simply amazing, its definitely a suit that will grow with your skill and be something you keep for awhile, while my swift is now only used as a borrow suit for newer jumpers

  8. i talked with squirrel about this canopy and how its coming along last month and they told me they are working very hard on it right now, and things are going great and hopefully they could get it released in august, so they may throw a surprise and release it in the next few days but they could not tell me any more besides all of that, so hopefully in next month or so it will be released

  9. surprised they have not mentioned anything about it yet, but i guess a great way to show it off on first looks was to take it to this race haha, wonder how long till they release more specifics and if they plan to make it in full production anytime soon

  10. thanks guys! and yea my helmet does have a cutaway, and ive been playing with a few different lengths with extra gopro knuckles this is currently how i have it mounted (have yet to jump with it but was planning to do one or two this weekend before making my trip out to florida

  11. i am trying to make myself an extended forward head mount for my helmet to use on my wingsuit jumps and was hoping to see if i could get some peoples examples of how they do theirs and how it looks. and to get any tips on how to go about opening if there is anything in particular you need to do besides throw your head down

  12. i just recently bought a wingsuit and will be using my sabre 2 150 as the canopy (WL 1.3) and i was wondering what people general consensus about this canopy for wingsuiting is and if it is something i should keep or maybe think of trading in for another canopy
