  1. That's one reason this idea went out of style a decade or so ago. Another reason is that it can damage the canopy. How exactly? im not real sure i agree with this, every time i pack my base rig the nose gets rolled and stuffed in the centercell, everytime! and we base-tards like onheading openings and not damaging our gear on every jump. but what do i know?

  2. Where its the option for chicken? Lol Flock University FWC / ZFlock B.A.S.E. 1580 Aussie BASE 121
  3. got a 98 silverado and a 95 s10, found it easier to remove the tail lights and pull the bed. two hours tops, no draining the fuel , no messing with those straps that are always a pain in the ass. Flock University FWC / ZFlock B.A.S.E. 1580 Aussie BASE 121
  4. It's actually ballast. His tongue hanging out on the front side creates a lot of drag, so he needs something on the back side to balance it out. im betting its panty hose from the last naked rodeo! Flock University FWC / ZFlock B.A.S.E. 1580 Aussie BASE 121
  5. i hear robbie personally inspects every v4 that leaves his shop, thats supposedly why the lead times are so long for the v4s, i like the idea that my suit will be gone over by a jumper, not just someone with some mad sewing skillz Flock University FWC / ZFlock B.A.S.E. 1580 Aussie BASE 121
  6. What helmet lens are you using them on? Cookie gas1, you apply it to the inside of the lense, let it dry, then polish it with a cloth, I use microfiber. I've been using it for a couple years and havnt had a problem. Flock University FWC / ZFlock B.A.S.E. 1580 Aussie BASE 121
  7. Rainx antifog wipes, I life in florida and swear by them. Re apply once a month and you are good to go. They got em at walmart Flock University FWC / ZFlock B.A.S.E. 1580 Aussie BASE 121
  8. nice man, i wish the lead times on v4s were somewhere close to that! order placed dec4, still waiting! itll be worth it! Flock University FWC / ZFlock B.A.S.E. 1580 Aussie BASE 121
  9. Mesh liner, tunnell zippers, funky collars, stirrups, cool fabric..etc Flock University FWC / ZFlock B.A.S.E. 1580 Aussie BASE 121
  10. Im about to book some tickets, just seeing who is going to be there in may? Flock University FWC / ZFlock B.A.S.E. 1580 Aussie BASE 121
  11. Hey Dave! Hows it going buddy? Hope all is well. My zippers are closed all the way, I like them that way. And this was the first jump I could actually open the leg wing all the way up, I'll work on de arching a lil more. I think my main prob in the past was head position. I'm getting there, its just talking time. Thanks for the info on body position, we'll see how it gores this weekend. And the base canopy is back in action!

  12. I finally got on my back and held it for a bit, if any of you guys wanna give me some pointers I would be greatful... I know the other thread is exactly the same, I just didn't want to hijack it. Every other time I'm either really sinking out or go head low, I'm working on de arching and head position. Let me know it you see anything else that sticks out. [url] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ce1CMlP4ilo&sns=em Sorry if the sticky dosent work.

  14. I just saw there is a new wingsuit manufacturer in texas. They have some pretty cool transparent material for the wing area. Looks like a pf venom with a different tail. Just wondering if anyone has seen one in person, or actually flew one. $2200 its pretty steep! Gorilla-worx.com Flock University FWC / ZFlock B.A.S.E. 1580 Aussie BASE 121
  15. here is a shitty pic of mine, it fits great and is pretty durable. it dosent have all the bells and whistles that liquid sky does, but i could buy 3 of them for the price of one liquid sky. Flock University FWC / ZFlock B.A.S.E. 1580 Aussie BASE 121
  16. hey wingies, so there is a qualifier in perris in may, and then the record attempt in september in perris again. is there any way we can get some of the organizers to come to flock n dock or the skydive expo in deland to get some of the east coast fliers signed off? i know how expensive these events can be, and was just hoping we could get an authority to one of these events, so the east coast folks dont have to make two trips to california within 3 months. i want this formation to succeed and am just throwing ideas out there since we still have time to get this organized. i know allot of folks cant afford two trips across the country that close together, ideas?

  22. I've seen two different v4 suits that have had a legwing flapping issues, it looks like the legwing kind of deflates and starts flapping in a dive, but I just saw a brand new one that didn't do it, so I'm hoping they got the problem solved. still waiting on the arrival of mine Flock University FWC / ZFlock B.A.S.E. 1580 Aussie BASE 121
  23. pretty sure its 5, possibly 6, we beat it at wingding with 8, but wouldn't fit in the damn grid grrrr, were gonna get it for sure this week! Flock University FWC / ZFlock B.A.S.E. 1580 Aussie BASE 121
