  1. Practice flying with both hands on bottom corner of rig, knees bent (very important), with a good arch and your chin up. while in this position (at a high altitude) make your self unstable so you can become familiar with instability in this position. Also practice tracking exits as if you are trying to follow the plane. Face forward in the door, side step out presenting the center of your chest to the relative wind, hands at sides, chin up, slight arch. and lastly practice navigation do not fly downwind or through jump run, fly to the upwind side of dz.

  3. Quote"People who pigeon-hole themselves into two ways and small ways with the new guy will take them big or small, flat or vertical, front or back." Hey Omar what the hell kind of new age independent film bullshit flying you talking about here. Is this why I got booted from the team. I'm sorry I didn't pigeon hole you, what exactly is that? It's all O.K. because you respect my choices. Thanks buddy BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

  5. Wow did you see that I almost got chopped in two. On the dive I saw a blur it was so fast I couldn't tell who it was untill I watched the footage. Patience grasshopper, on a wingsuit dive plenty of time exists to get to slot. No harm done, on the contrary this seems to have awakened some people to the fact that we have a huge potential for collsion, even with experienced pilots. So take your time you have twice the time of an average belly or freefly jump to get where you need to be. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

These tips wont guarantee you a perfect ws flight but will help you to have better odds at a good ws experience. 10 minute call got to go. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

  11. Thank you to everyone who tried one of our suits, the flocks were as good as the scenery. I also would like to thank Scott Bland for punching me in the jaw, organizing and just tolerating me in general. Scotty go fast Burns and Matt knife fork spoon Hoover took some great shots, here's one from Scotty.
  12. No we already have plenty of exp. pilots. To see how two beginer pilots, that have no ties to any manufacturer, will fly would give alot of info as to what the average pilot can really do in the begining stages of w.s. flight in that particular suit. Just another way to see suit potential thats all. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/
  13. I know longer own a neptune and do not own a gps unit. mainly because I do not like to spend unneccary money and I'm not into the tech stuff the few times poeple have lent me their equiptment I have posted the results as unbeleivable as they sound. I'm not refusing to post any numbers I just don't have them. To me that is for the person that is into those things. Alot of my customers find out that info on thier own. I'll put all on the line though, jumping with someone who is equal weight, height and ability, any time. So if anyone is interested I'm up for the challenge. Another way to really see exactly what any suit can do is to put it in the hands of two inexperienced pilots and let them race as well. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/
  14. Mount a camera facing an alti on both wingsiut pilots. You can see the exact moment of exit, deployment and their respective altitudes. This can be timed by the camera. This can also record where exit and deployment are in respect to the distance traveled across the ground. Anyone can talk their B.S. about 7 to 1 G.R., but like I say to everone who asks about the performance of our suits, "You have to try for yourself" After they do I get the same response from everyone, " This suit is the best in the sky! Sorry for upseting my competition, but business is business nothing personal. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/
  15. I don't know who came up with the infamous 7 to 1 G.R. I'm not into that tech stuff, just into designing the highest performing wing suits. All I can say is at break off time when everybody is maxing out their suits, I am looking down and behind me at all of the other suits. When your in the plane watching wingsuit pilots exit they are falling down and behind the plane at a certain rate. That is my point of view at break off, everyone falls down and behind me at almost that rate. In a Mach 1 I can put 1000 feet of vertical separation between myself and other pilots(of other wingsuits) in seconds as unbelievable as that sounds. The pilots I jump with are mostly high experience wingsuit fliers, some taller and lighter than me. When they are flying Mach 1's I'm giving it all I've got to keep up with them.

  16. Don't get me wrong the V1 and V2 are nice flying suits and they were top of the line last year. I am looking forward to what other manufacturers come out with this year. I can say from the experience of flying all 3 suits a Mach 1 out performes both in forward speed and lift. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/
  17. they have the back inlet near the body then 4 vents on the frt of the arm with little outlets alowing air to pass over the back of the wing like the "Things" on the birdman arms BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/
  18. Sorry but I have to argue with that one. A Mach 1 flies much faster forward speeds than a V1 or V2, also it has much more lift and is far less tiring to fly. It is good for flocking as well. Alot of pilots that have flown both suits agree. You can easily keep up with, or outfly, most suits while backflying in a Mach1. BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

    Glide ratio

    sorry gents but the tall skinny guys win out on this one. I've had students that would give any top wingsuit pilot a run for their money, doesn't matter how many jumps you have, someone taller and lighter than you will be able to out fly you if they can fly reasonably well. Robi is about the same height and weight as me, so I would be interested in flying with him for max glide, maybe at flock and dock we could do a two way just to see.

    and he's probably the world leader in maxing out the glide ratio. Don't know about that! BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/

  22. this exact thing happened to Chris Kessler on a freefly jump and his first reaction was to pull the bridal and bag out of the container and into the wind. When he landed his bridal was knotted around the P/C compleatly choking it off BUY A WINGSUIT My Website Tony Suits [url "http:/
