That's a real nice suit. I bet the guy who owned it before was pretty awesome... Phoenix Fly - High performance wingsuits for skydiving and BASE Performance Designs - Simply brilliant canopies

I used to jump an ext and for wingsuiting I MUCH prefer my Vector 3 for fit and handle placement.

Hold that excitement for a while yet. This is just a very early prototype to test some various suit elements which could be incorporated in to future suits.

I've had to send personal suits back for a little 'extra room' before... IN THE CROTCH AREA!* Hoo yah! * This is not a true story. Phoenix Fly - High performance wingsuits for skydiving and BASE Performance Designs - Simply brilliant canopies

Our suits? They're designed to be pretty form fitting, and will give a little after a few jumps. If it's as cold as that, and you know that you will need to jump many layers, then the winter clothing option would be sensible, otherwise regular fit is best.

What he just said

James, as I said on FB, just give me a shout when you're next up and we'll do some flights together in your old suit and make sure you're flying is good to go, then you can see how it differs in your new suit when you're ready for it.

James, from the look on your FB picture it looks like the fit might be a little bit big - How does it feel in flight? When are you next at Sibson? I can have a look if you want, and we can go for a fly. I'll film you so we can get an idea of what's going on in the air

You're welcome dude. Looks great. Let us know how it flies :) Phoenix Fly - High performance wingsuits for skydiving and BASE Performance Designs - Simply brilliant canopies

How are your plans coming along? Is the intention still to use a long slope to land on? When do plan for your first attempt to happen? Do you have all the funding in place? Other than saying you want to do this, what starts have you made to make it an actuality? Genuinely curious as everything I hear about it is always 3rd hand.

I watched this from the bridge all the way to impact. The canopy reached lone stretch and had started to inflate, but seriously, only just. He made a fair old noise as he hit the water and it took them a long time to fish him out. Unfortunately his friends and family watched it from the landing area. From the bridge it looked like nothing more than a really late, then lazy throw. He barely got any distance in the WS, trackers did better. As I understand it, he has severed his spinal cord, shattered his pelvis and collapsed both lungs. So, technically not a Wingsuit landing, and even if it was, the guys never going to walk again by all accounts.

Don't you mean reducing fall rate in relation to others? ;) Phoenix Fly - High performance wingsuits for skydiving and BASE Performance Designs - Simply brilliant canopies

What's your home DZ? Speak to your CCI and any local experienced WSers. Best bet would be to get current again, then think about WS. How many WS jumps do you have? Do you have a WS1 sticker?

You should read up more about SEO. that's a sure fire way to get your site blacklisted by google. Phoenix Fly - High performance wingsuits for skydiving and BASE Performance Designs - Simply brilliant canopies

A list of coaches who have no affiliation to WW or TS, yet appear to as per this list sure would add some nice SEO to a website looking to promote it's rental service. Google a coach and end up on the WW site? Why not host the list completely independently from the site, then you may got more people signing up to it?

+1 Just pull the pud and out it comes. I've only ever jumped one on my Vector 3, so perhaps other containers are different, but i've not noticed any different technique required to get the PC out Phoenix Fly - High performance wingsuits for skydiving and BASE Performance Designs - Simply brilliant canopies

I jump a vector with a free fly pad on all my WS jumps and have never had a problem. Additionally, order the extended bridle. Will have no affect on your FF jumps, but will help your WS deployments. Double additionally, I can highly recommend the semi stowless bag option. Reduces the risk of line twists and make packing much quicker :) Phoenix Fly - High performance wingsuits for skydiving and BASE Performance Designs - Simply brilliant canopies

Some of the other pilots who were there arguably had the skills to fly through as well - why didn't they? Either one by one or a formation would have been cool

www.wingsuitnews.com There you go, someone already did it for you Phoenix Fly - High performance wingsuits for skydiving and BASE Performance Designs - Simply brilliant canopies

Which means you're loading that new canopy at closer to 1.3 Seriously. Don't worry about buying a wingsuit yet. You're still a long way off flying one, so why not wait until you're ready, do an FFC and see if WS flying is actually for you. You may not even like it. Again, spend the $ on jumps and worry about about buying a wingsuit in another 100 or so jumps when you've actually given it a go. Stay safe.
