  1. Says I am not authorized to view the photo. Please PM me the photo or post the photo. -Thanks
  2. I've seen my shadow on clouds as I fly pass them with the sun on my back but can't find any still photos of this. Does anyone have a good photo of this they could share with me? -Thanks
  3. I am in New England and looking for the best place to jump this weekend. Leaning towards SD CT but was thinking about making the drive to orange if any wing suitters will be flocking...
  4. Thanks! I was also considering CPI. I will move to Events Forum.
  5. I am headed to Newport RI for two weeks overlapping Haloween weekend and was wondering if anyone could suggest the best place to spend the weekend jumping. I am looking to do some RW and/or wingsuitting. I was leaning towards Jumptown in Orange Mass but was also considering Peperrell... Thanks for any input!

  7. This post should be redirected!
  8. I will be there on Saturday. I am new to the Tampa area and have not done too many WS flights at Z-hills (won't be my first though ;) but I would love to do some jumps with any other wing suiters out there.
  9. Way to go Socrates! If you or Scott get down to Tampa let me know and we will get some flights in. I have just arrived and have not been to the DZ yet! Sam
  10. Scott, I won't be there in March but I am headed down there for my next move. I will be in Tampa in May for two years and hope to see you down there in the future. Sam from Eloy
  11. I am passing through LA and want to fly with some other wing suiters. Any wing suiters jumping at Perris or Elsinore on 31 Dec 07? I was planning on going to Perris Valley because I haven't visited it yet but thought I would ask first.
  12. Yes, a little diuct tape goes a long way! Ahh, that's an idea a wingsuit made of duct tape! I told you we could be creative by sharing ideas! That may be our hybrid semi-rigid wing suit. :) Ed, as far as the GS1, I will definitely give it a try the next time I am in Lodi. Sam out!
  13. Keep plopping the acid if that is what it takes to think creatively. Innovative thinkers are not bound by the currently available technologies or understanding of physics. As much as we think we know about physics there is just as much that we don't know or understand. Consider da Vinci and his "prophesies" of future technology. While there may or may not be another da Vinci out there, a forum like this allows many minds to meld into one and become closer to da Vinci's. Granted there is a place for the skeptics, without them the discussion would get out of hand. However, playing both sides of the coin is the best mix. IT WASN'T JUST "MATH AND PHYSICS" that sent humans to the moon. Much philosophy and thinking "outside the box" enabled America to be the first to walk on the moon. If this thread was a means to find out who to invest my $$ in, my dollars would go towards Jii Wings and of course Jarno. (but, I am still trying to figure out how Jarno makes his money) (All the free stuff Jarno puts on the web shows his motivation) (Thanks Jarno!!) Keep this thread going and let's see what may come out of it!!
  14. Kallend, That is what I am talking about. I have discussed this with others and I think you are right on! After all, who would have ever thought that a Jumbo jet would exist until Alloy materials and jet engines came along. It is hard to imagine future iterations of an innovation when you are looking through a lens of currently available technology. Thanks for the input!!
