  1. Hi Kelly , I think that there must be something wrong on the numbers or the rage is a really hard diving canopy .
  2. Hi Fandago , I couldt go to the Boogie in Reñaca , but some friends told me that was really good . But the week before I talked with the guy that jumped the rage , he tried to explain me the design , but in a barbecue with some beers was really hard to get it . Anyway if he dives his canopy from so hight, the rage must have a longer recovery arc than all the other xbraced canopies . I dont think people are seting their 360 landings that hight even at 2.3 wingloading.
  3. Hi guys , just curious about the previous post , but to start your 360 at 1200 feet , you must have a hell of wingloading , let me guess something like 2.5 or more . just curious
  4. Hi guys , I want to buy a new camera and needed to know if the sony Ip-5 with firewire , can exchange the film with minidv cameras . thanx
  5. I read the problem of the ppo ,and I think that to have problems jumping from it , you should go to the zero load of the rotor , and my friend that would drop me , is a lot heavier than me , so zero g would not be possible. I will wait and get informed , and then decide . thanks guys if I jump from it , i will take pics
  6. Hi guys , I have a question , has anyone jumped from a two place Gyrocopter . I have like 30 jumps from different kind of ultralights , but the pilot of the gyro , told me that could be dangerous because of the weight shift. Please share your experiences .
  7. Hi Miami , at what wingloading are we talking about , that the Xaos-21 starts to give shorter swoops , at 2.3 or more? .
  8. Just my opinion , the pilot is the only one who knows , if he can downsize if you have to ask , maybe you dont have to do it . And other thing if you want more speed , and you are not a great swooper , but you really know how to fly safely a crossbraced canopy . flat turns etc... , It would not be bad downsizing and getting speed with more conservative aproaches. than trying to sqeese your current canopy . just my thought
  9. Hi guys , I wanted to know the opinions , of how flies a xaos-21 at a 2.3 wingloading , I fly mine at 1.97 , and now , have the chance to sell it . I want to downsize to a wingload , of 2.3 .I have read that the xaos-27 dives less than the 21 , and thats why I am looking at a xaos-21. Please give me some advice , on what canopy would be better at that wingloading , and wich one would dive harder . any help welcome. Thanks sorry but i write like shit
  10. Hi guys , I dont know if it is that fun , but I like this one with the heli on the back.
  11. I want my suit thanx for the advise , I will contact Asaf , so he can bring one for me ....
  12. Hi Ro Yes he was here for a weekend , and he is coming back on 17 , 18 of january , for a Casa 212 boogie we are having. I have done the research in the forum , and have read some people , jumping the S3 as first suit . I know I shouldnt say this , but people , said the same to me , when I started flying my Xaos 88 , stay away . Know I am really really happy with my canopy . I think I can apply this to the suit. Anyway I will do some Gti jumps before. Thanks for the advice
  13. Ohhh thats a long wait , maybe I better wait for Asaf , that is coming to my country soon , I think that he can bring me a used one. thanks
  14. Hi guys , I just decided , to buy a new S3, for first suit , and wanted to know , how long does Bird-man , takes to make you a custom one. Thanks I would love having it , for this super puma , weekend
  15. So your Xaos-21 88 fits ok in your javelin rs? it must fit very tight? , please tell me how does it fit . Is your rs the same size than a xrs . Thanks for the anwsers
  16. Hello , I am having problem choosing the size of my container , since my xaos 88 packs so big. I need some help , guys What size of micron and javelin container would I need for my xaos 88 that fits ok ? Xrs? micron 304 ? please give me some advice Thanks!!!!!!!!!
  17. Thanks Chuck for the advice , thats the point its difficult to buy something from another country
  18. Lou this afternoon I sent you a mail , about your skyflyer , are you still selling it? or maybe you can help me finding a birdman suit thanks Lou About the thing that is a bad idea jumping my Xaos , I just feel so comfortable jumping it that I just wouldnt feel good jumping another canopy . I jumped a classic with my crossfire and no problem , and now better my xaos opens much more on heading than my crossfire...
  19. Hi Phrezone , the crossbow is brand new , and about the classic I already jumped it twice and would prefer something with more performance . I will be jumping my xaos 88 , I think it has the sweetest openings.... que tengan buenos saltos
  20. Hello bird people , I need some help from you , I want to buy , a wingsuit , but I cant demo because I live in Chile south america. A guy is selling me a new crossbow in 500 bucks , but I would like to know if it is worth the money or better I get a gti or skyflyer , knowing that the skyflyer is harder to fly. thanks for the help......
  21. I really dont agree , that you cant jump a high wing loading , at low jump numbers I started skydiving with my sabre at 1.3 wingloading made 100 jumps then changed to a crossfire 2 and never had problems , now I fly a xaos 88 at 2,0 wingload and I love it I have 400 jump and always have jumped high wing loading , I think you are the only one that knows what you want and need to jump. I also have a friend that started jumping a velocity 90 at 2.1 wingloading and he never had a problem , no he has like 200 jumps and makes really good swoops , that thanks for the canopy school at perris. I just dont understand people like banning you because of your jump numbers.
