Actually, Yuri is on to something! Balancing a suit to peoples individual centers of gravity will increase performance. The way to do this, however, is to change the ratio of arm wing surface area to leg wing surface area. Unless a pilot is balanced on a fulcrum point it is very difficult to determine the exact C/G. Adding weight might give better results over an unbalanced suit, but tailoring suits to peoples individual C/G's will give better performance gains. I've designed a table just for this, but I'm still figuring out the formula to translate to surface area ratios. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has tried flying our suits. We are very pleased with everyones responses. The feedback we have gotten from jumpers has added alot of improvements to the suits, so thank you once again. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

We are still working out some final details on the suit. It will be another month before it goes into production. The price will be $500.00. This suit is sized to fit. The suit in Matt's picture is tony's original suit that Bill Sullivan flew with the addition of more leg wing. This suit was dubbed the "death suit" by some jumpers who were not comfortable with wing suit flying. Tony and I now call it D.S.1. We flew the suit with far better results than we expected. However it did get very tiring at the end of the flight. This particullar model was not designed for beginers, we do have another single layer suit that is designed for beginers that will cost $400.00 and we are going to offer a buy back program on this suit. As long as the suit is in resonable condition we will credit $300.00 torward the purchase of any of our suits. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

The single layer suit is based off of a standard camerea suit with the addition of a leg wing. The suit fly's as well as most suits. The only draw back is that it is more taxing on your muscles. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

I can tell you from the experience of doing intentional flat spins to the point of feeling like my feet and head are going to blow up, the best way to get out of one is to collapse all wings including leg wing, arch and track to the opposite direction of the spin. Balling up makes you go faster, just like a figure skater that is spinning when arms are pulled in they spin faster on that axis. On my 40th wingsuit jump I experienced a flat spin from my bootie coming off and pulling up to my knee on a backfly rodeo jump. the first thing I did was to ball up and I started spinning faster to the point that I was pinned flat, this is the part of the jump wear my eye damage occured. Even if your a very experienced wingsuit pilot someone can clip you on the side of a leg and send you spinning. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

Pierre, I just dropped off your suit at Fedex, 2 day air. As long as it goes right through customs you should have it shortly. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

Thanks again Steve, I'm glad you learned so much especially how to correctly track out of a flat spin instead of balling up, good job. The video is on the way. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

Just get a Mach 1 it was designed for big people and floaty backflying. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

Quote In those suits (Nebula and Eagle) , I can't imagine that you could invert your hands to backfly without spoiling half your lift protential, assumining you flip your hands over when you flip over. This is partially true. When you backfly palms down in a webbie suit you are shrinking the surface area of the wing. The proper way to backfly in a suit with webbies is palms up. At first it is very taxing on your muscles, but in time gets easier. If the fall rate of the dive is a little faster you can fly palms down. The Nebula still gave Mr. Blue a run for his money, backflying palms up or down. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

All of our suits now can have the legstraps in or outside the suit. With no fear of swallowing your handles. So a base pouch is on the way shortly. You can also stow your pilot chute in the legstrap depending on what you are used to. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

Matt Hoover has photos in skydiving mag. the black suit is the 2nd prototype of the Mach 1. The production version has double front zips and the legstraps can go inside or outside the suit. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

I'll be there with plenty of demos. And of coarse there is no charge for usage. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

The Mach 1 just came into production this week. I've been jumping the prototype of this suit for a few months and nobody can touch the lift or forward speed of this suit. I have jumped almost every wingsuit on the market and none of them have the power of the Mach 1. Now I know some of you might say that my opinion is bias because I designed this suit. Be that as it may, the performance will speak for itself. Straight flight no dives between 6,000 and 2,500 ft I achieved 19mph vertical and 139mph horizontal, This is G.P.S. data from one jump. The wind was l/v 5 to 10kts. The production version performs even better, I'll try to get some G.P.S. numbers for it. Please don't try to land without a fully inflated canopy. Thank you, come again.
