    ***Yes I did ask and send pics about 3 days ago buy not reply so far



    Buy Squirrel.

    Your post is still quoted, so deleting what you posted was not the finest and smartest move in this case, palejo...

    "A new phoenix-fly website is currently in the works, with updated color designer, suit features and full presentation on the new PF range for 2014 and onward.
    More news on that soon."

    Any updates here? Looks like the PF site hasn't been looked at in a long time.



    A good thing takes time, i suppose.

    This brandwar thingie is soooo old, boring and lame...



    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,

    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.

  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...

    From pictures I have seen, the viper looks a lot like an apache with squirrel vents. What are the differences?



    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.

    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...

  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!

  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..

  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.

  23. 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
