Nice work jnebel, looks great.

Does anyone remember someone posted futuristic illustrations of wingsuits on this forum (about a year ago I think). Also awesome stuff.

Cool thanks.

Yeah for sure, that clip is awesome.

K, just found this and it doesn't say who they are:

Looks like the states?

Hey man,

I just got back from the Christmas Boogie at Seville.
Was awesome, really good DZ.

But, I haven't been to Lillo or Ocana so I guess I'm biased.


cheers

Just got back from Seville (going to Heathrow).
No problems at all either way.

Yeah only weekend DZs, but some open in the week if there's a demand.

All are good, you've got alot of choice.

Have a look at the PASA website for links to all the DZs... depends on whereabout you're going in SA though.

Yup, that's the one. Really good quality.

And looks like it's not even manufactured by Aerodyne???

OI!

That's sooooo last century

I think when everyone writes BOC here, they mean throw out.

but thanks for clearing that up.

Vortex II!

Thanks

Yeah, there seem to be alot of good rules here though.

Like their canopy grading requirements for licences.
I think that's great.

I asked for the lightest grey... almost white.

But it's more of a very very light blue / grey.

It's a strange colour, but it works.

Well... that container aint gonna open unless I say so.

Thanks man, I think so too...

One of the most original looking Vortex II's around I reckon.

Ok, I have just arrived in the UK from SA...

In SA, with my B licence... I could jump a pull-out.

Now in the UK, I have been told, sorry... you can't use your rig because you don't have a C licence...

An instructor actually laughed at me and said that Pull-out was "crap" and dangerous...

Now, to me... a pull-out is by far alot safer, especially for freeflying.

What are the rules in other countries regarding this?
Anybody else have similar experiences?

You've seen the rest, now see the best!
Behold, my new toy... I LOVE IT!!!!

Affordable and excellent quality.

I think their (Parachute systems) main dealer in the UK is http://www.dzsports.com/ - based at Hinton.
Maddy and the crowd have always given me excellent service.

Yeah, but getting direct from SA is waaaaaaay cheaper.

Clicky!

I preferred my Hurricane over the XF2 in all regards except for opening. Mine never did open softly but otherwise it was a great canopy.

No complaints here with my openings, really soft. Although I dont load it heavily, at all.

Erm... what about a Hurricane?

A friend of mine demoed a Crossfire 2 the other weekend and then a 'Cane the next. He couldn't stop going on about how the 'cane was waaaaaaaay better with regards to opening, performance, glide, arc...

Is it cos it's a South African canopy that US jumpers don't wanna jump it?

Hey man,

http://www.para.co.za/ ... then click on "dropzones".

Phone the nearest one to you for more info.
(I have no idea where Potch is... I'm from KZN)

Awesome Vid!
