  2. Hi all, We've just uploaded the latest Need4Speed video to vimeo. This is a longer pseudo-documentary style vid, with lots of nice lines and a bit more about the team. Enjoy

    Tailstrikes

    Have to disagree on these. Looking up on exit will create a natural arch which will allow for a cleaner exit. Looking down presents the opportunity to end up head low on exit which can disorientate newer jumpers - especially when jumping in groups. Also, if you look up, you'll be able to see the tail as it goes by... Additionally, exiting with hands covering your handles is a bad idea. Although unlikely, it poses a risk of one of those handles being used when it shouldn't be. Better to either have you hands higher up on your chest, or exit with them at waist height, then you can progressively open your wings.

  4. Can you add a photo of which style you have? Phoenix Fly - High performance wingsuits for skydiving and BASE Performance Designs - Simply brilliant canopies
  5. You may get more responses if you say where you are and what you're looking for :) Phoenix Fly - High performance wingsuits for skydiving and BASE Performance Designs - Simply brilliant canopies
  6. Check out Z Hills or Elsinore. Either would be a good option, though if you're coming from the UK, whic at a random guess I think you are, Z Hills will be better for journey time. Also, Florida has tons of wife friendly stuff to do all within an hour of the DZ :) Phoenix Fly - High performance wingsuits for skydiving and BASE Performance Designs - Simply brilliant canopies

    Cleaning

    If the suit has a cable based cutaway system, take them out before washing. It's a good idea to spray a cloth with silicone spray, then pull the cables through it to make sure they're nice and slippery. You know, like we all do with our cutaway cable on our rigs... right?

    Hey you...

    I don't care what suit you fly or who makes it, which part of the world you're in, whether you fly with your legs straight or bent up to your neck, if you can achieve a GR of 9 or just 0.9... Happy fucking Christmas. In 2012, can we please try to all get along? Phoenix Fly - High performance wingsuits for skydiving and BASE Performance Designs - Simply brilliant canopies

  12. Hi basamajik To confirm, we did not put this on our Facebook page. I have just checked the page and it seems someone else (not at all related to PF) has posted it to our wall. This would only be visible to those who visit the actual page, and not by all our fans in the way our own content would be seen. I had not realised this had been posted as the display was set to our content only for admins. I have now removed this from our wall as it is not appropriate for it to be on our page. If anyone wishes to discuss this or any other matter further, as always, feel free to email me directly - [email protected] Thanks Macca Phoenix Fly - High performance wingsuits for skydiving and BASE Performance Designs - Simply brilliant canopies

    V4

    Shortly after production started, we discovered that in a very limited number of cases within a certain size of suit there was a potential manufacturing issue with the tail wing not remaining rigid when the suit was flown in a certain way in a steep dive. All affected suits - to the best of our knowledge - have now been fixed free of charge. This issue does not affect any newer V4's. If anyone would like to discuss this further, please contact me: [email protected] Thanks Macca Phoenix Fly - High performance wingsuits for skydiving and BASE Performance Designs - Simply brilliant canopies
  16. Hi all, We've just finished putting together a video interview with Robert Pecnik for Blue Skies Magazine and thought you might like to check it out. Video can be found here: http://blueskiesmag.com/2011/12/03/a-word-with-robert-pecnik/ Enjoy

    V4

    To confirm, all suits except V4 are at a 6 week build time. Unfortunately, due to the extremely high demand for V4, the build time is at 5 months - though we are working hard to bring this time down as a matter of priority. V4 is made in a separate production facility to ensure that it doesn't affect the lead times of our other suits. If anyone has any questions, or wants any help at all, please feel free to contact me: [email protected] Thanks
