  1. Buy Squirrel. Your post is still quoted, so deleting what you posted was not the finest and smartest move in this case, palejo...
  2. That's atually a very classic line of business for the Balkan: Pimping. Martin
  3. A good thing takes time, i suppose.
  4. Jesus... if you guys are so keen on penises then you gotta go there: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=0e5_1396794541
  5. Martin, I totally agree with you on that. The rest of your message makes it sound like you don't understand what happened here, which I think is clear from the thread above. We did not create the site. And, for the record: If anyone in the industry can take a joke, Squirrel can. Send us your best. Cheers, -Matt Was busy working, so please excuse me for coming back that late. I never said you created that site nor did I understand it that way. Anyone else did. Same effect. Anyway, anyone is allowed to make fun out of everything, that´s humor, even if get´s a very low standard, and there´s no holy untachable cow in the industry, nor is PF, Tony, and who ever, but little shit-throwers should first achieve what the old players have done for human flight. Regarding the joke: After the recent four fatalities last weekend the jokes got a little bit stucked in my throat, so sorry... maybe another time. Thanks, Martin
  6. So everybody has to knee in front of the big squirrel, or what? Making fun of other companies and throwing shit at them is ok, but if anybody counters that that´s not ok? All this looks just like an cheap attempt to provoke a reaction and bring other manufacturers in discredit. This brandwar thingie is soooo old, boring and lame...
  7. On my last Wingsuitbase I had brutal linetwists. My lines were so twisted that I couldn't barely move in my suit allready and my fullface helmet was blocking any moves additionally. Could luckily throw the fullface helmet off, untwist the lines and land safely. With a sidemounted cam I wouldn't have had any chance to get out of this, a sidemounted cam would have made everything worst or even broke my neck...
  8. He should sell that idea to the Taliban or other Jihadis. The suicide bombers could become finally airborne with this. Maybe he can trade this for some of their virgins...
  9. Every dropzone needs to be highly alarmed now if some guys show up and ask to learn how to fly a wingsuit, but not how to land it...
  10. Frankly, when I saw images of the new Squirrel suit, the Colugo, it looked like an Apache-clone to me. We're coming to a point where latest suits simply have a similar design. The varieties are in the details, and as long as the customer benefits from it, it's fine. Martin P.S.: My spelling sucks...
  11. I jump a Stiletto 107, only reliable, soft, on heading openings, no twists and cutaways so far. Might be not very common what I'm doing, but: It works.. It also depends on the canopy. I used to have a 120 Stiletto before and I wouldn't have dreamt of using it on a WS-jump, since I had to cut it away two or three times because that canopy was really bitchy... M
  12. Oh, and the GoPro Hero 3 will probably join the game very soon... http://photorumors.com/2012/10/06/rumor-gopro-hero-3-due-before-the-end-of-the-year/
  13. Dude, he means the settings of the advanced settings file of a ReplayXD 1080. Not knowing what's actually spoken about isn't automatically the eligibility to chip in useless comments...;) No offense meant though!
  14. Seems like something interesting is on the way... https://news.sel.sony.com/en/press_room/consumer/digital_imaging/camcorders/release/63286.html DSE, some few words maybe?:)
  15. This thread has actually nothing to do with Red Bull, only because someone has hijacked it. It started all about the question if it wouldn't have been better if Jeb Corliss would have landed a wingsuit as the first human ever because of it's media attention and not Gary Connery..
  16. Well, nobody can deny Jeb is not succesfull in presenting himself and what he does. Even though Gary C. landed a wingsuit everybody speaks about Jeb, Jeb and Jeb...even now, while you're reading this post...
  17. Hi DSE, thanks for the reply. Right, that's the adapter I use. I'm allready in touch with Replay, just wanted more feedback. Seems like it's really the Century lens that doesn't work with the 1080 and the Pro lens adapter...
  18. Cheers, anybody else out there has the ReplayXd 1080? I encounter some problems using the Pro Lens Adapter, if I use it with the ReplayXD and a Century Precision 0.5 lens the image is only blurry...
  19. Haven't done any ws-jumps with a round canopy yet, but did some jumps with rounds (T-10 & MC-1C) in the Army out of a C160 a decade ago. The landing fall was quite hard, and to imagine I would have to unzip arm-and legzippers of a wingsuit and do a parachute landing fall which probably would not be the best for the material neither...-I can't see any benefit in it.
  20. I asked the Replay support if a 37mm adpater is available but no response so far...would be cool though to use it with my .5 Century lens. I have also encountered some problems with a Sandisk MicroSDHC class 6 card, the cam doesn't recognize the card, other cards work. Replay said they will solve this problem with a new firmware update, let's see when the new firmware will be out.
  21. This all sounds quite promissing, but can the Replay 1080 now keep up with the GP 2? Martin
  22. Hi, I use a alpha 700, it works perfect. I use a self build remote control. I don´t think there´re bite or tounge switches out there like for cannon or nikkon but you can easily build your own from a Sony remote RM-S1AM. hope this helps a bit. Regards, Martin
  23. So, since the cam has been in use and tested: What do you guys think? Is it ok for skydiving, the image calm and can you recommend it?
  24. Hi guys, anyone has experience doing tandemjumps out of a Robinson R44? Any advice? Thanks, Martin
