Well there you have it. It is a miracle the thousands of wingsuit students before the "great spotted instructor" got here were not Maimed or killed by their self declared instructors. He is going to get you all back for not letting him on the official world record! The truth is you are all unsafe, you worked hard to get him on the un- official world record the year before. Sketchy bitches.

Diablo has turned into a skilled wingsuit pilot -- hopefully he will come back to Texas and play with his wingsuit compadres when the season is over. It looks like that view is slightly different than the cow pastures we are used to flyin' over

So my home DZ closed a few months back and I headed to gain employment at the next DZ down the road -- they treat me good but now my home DZ (The only place I can consider home) is reopening bigger and better. The problem is I don't want to burn any bridges but I really want to go home - its closer, and more fun. How do you leave a DZ to go to another keeping the option to return later if needed. I feel by leaving I will be unloyal to the DZ that allowed me to work there -- but I must go Thanks

Voodew, don't hate the player, hate the game. Oh thats right you did hate the game, you cried the whole way up about going downwind. I don't understand why you feel the need to bash me all the time. where is your loyalty? I brought you in to the sport, taught you everything you know and you treat me like this. It's ok, i will work with you some more on your CC you just need to accept the fact that it will take time ( as i'm sure everyone will agree your a little SLOW) but thats ok i fell it is my duty to work with the under privileged. by the way i like your trailer it looks alot like the short bus you use to ride back in school.

How about stand up the landing

Does that mean that your going to be there Chuck or is it another BMI? Brian

Damn that stinks. i would hate to be you, oh! wait sometimes i am.

As the innocent bystander/thread watcher it seems that all the support is from non - BMCI/BMI and all the opposition is from the BMCI/BMI. I see short comings in both arguments - both sides seem to have valid points but neither side can get it out there without making themselves look like an ass. As for the USPA argument - I have to say that the USPA states and is not written in a way that it could be misinterperted. You would really have to stretch to be able to misread it. It really doesn't matter where the info came from, it is the way and where it is written My 5 wingsuit jumps don't make me an authority and I personally wouldn't try to train anyone at my level - just stating hard facts Brian

I am ready and hoping for good weather! Anyone other than the Skydive Temple and Waller regulars gonna be there?

If you look at the arm lenght they seem about the same the arm wing on the V-1 for sure bigger. I don't know but it looks to be the same size suit with WICKED wings. I can't wait until I am ready for a V-1 Brian

right now the forecast is for rain followed by extreme clouds and thunderstorms Which sucks as I only have a few wingsuit jumps since I bought this suit due to shitty winter wet weather. May is on the way though

I don't know what happened to this thread but once again I will be in San Marcos with my new to me suit for some coaching and fun. I will also be at the Waller get together the beginning of March Pray for the sun to reappear

To all: I received my first wingsuit flight from Voodew, I used Teds suit - voodew took the time to train me up as he would an aff student using a check list and walking and talking thru all aspects of the jump. How do I know that? I am normally on the other side of that AFF first jump student. Voodew doesn't do well getting his point across as he is somewhat of a hot head after he is confronted in a malicious way but I have talked in depth on the matter and here is my take: He is not against any form of instruction - he would seriously pay for a BMCI to come down here and teach Ted and him. The point he tries to get across to me is that the only people willing to help are the non instructors - the BMIs seem to just want the "fame and fortune" I mean beer not fortune as I am also an AFFI and know there is no fortune. I don't have the money for a suit at this time but it has become a passion for him and I borrow Teds when I can. Voodew is just trying to get more people in the air so he has more people to jump with - he is selfish like that - its for his own enjoyment. I have read thru this entire thread which wore on me as it goes and came to the conclusion Voodew has valid points - the BMIs have valid points but the whole pissing each other off has made it where neither point will ever get out. Read back through it and this is what you might see: 1 Jason - wants to bring wingsuits to Texas in force 2 He can't do it alone 3 The BMIs can't afford to do it alone - they need to make enough to pay for the trip this could be hard 4 Birdman Inc doesn't have a whole lot of support (instructor wise) in the rest of the USA other than the coasts and 1 in Colorado. 5 Jason has been accused at biting the hand that feeds him----this is not his way he is my friend and I know that is not his way - he is grateful for any help or knowledge 6 Jason gets enraged when provoked To sum it all up if you all would bury the hatchet and quit picking at each other you just might come up with plan that would further wingsuit in general and make Gari so money so he could further the wingsuit production and maybe lower prices so I can afford one (sorry had to try) I never post here but I know that Voodew is pissed off that he can't get anything through to anyone else. I thought I would try to do it for him Join forces be strong quit the bullshit! Brian Dee AFFI
