  1. Put it steep it can't flat spin on its head BASE 1519
  2. I didn't really like the p3 all that much maybe the edge is that much better I don't know. You didn't like the swift maybe the swift 2 is that much better you don't know. BASE 1519
  3. its fun and you have softer landings, question is why not? BASE 1519
  4. You clearly need to demo a WinX and Michael Jordan needs to wear rebock no scotty you are not Michel Jordan haha BASE 1519
  5. Why have you flown the 2? Sounds like it's better vents for back flying and small improvements on pressure and whatever blah blah The freak was good this one will be better that's how wing suits go. I have flown the freak super fun suit have a 2 on order but will not be able to give a good comparison because I've only got about 5 freak jumps and I suck. BASE 1519
  6. but its the best one... BASE 1519
  7. come on guys maybe his dz is relaxed on ws rules. By the time I had 200 jumps probably 175 were in a wing suit. Maybe try em out see what you like. Intrudair you will pay half the cost if you don't have to pay the vat tax. BASE 1519
  8. been using mine since jump number 4 BASE 1519
  9. I cut away during a base jump once but did not have a backup parachute. Thank god that river was below me... BASE 1519
  10. how do you insert the pin too deep other than going all the way around the eyelet? BASE 1519
  11. Depends on the rig. Some are sewn to the d-bag. As I outlined above, putting an untested aftermarket part is likely to be increasing the chances of a malfunction. I showed my design to chief riggers and designers at 2 of the largest manufacturers. After discussing all the fine details about how their PC works within a system I realized that the design is not appropriate for the general skydiver. A PDA type PC is not a new idea at all. If pulling the pin and extracting the d-bag at the highest speed possible were the objective we'd all be rocking 48" pilot chutes! The amount of drag generated by your factory unit was carefully selected and tested. It works. Just make sure what you have is maintained in good condition - that's the key to increasing safety. -Michael right but did they flare their wingsuit back up with almost no speed and a giant burble? BASE 1519
  12. I'll give ya $500 for everything I am on of those wing suites that likes that canopy and I assume the reserve is still good BASE 1519
  13. Or if you are in a wing suit and you do not want to have your reserve handle sucked into your suit BASE 1519
  14. How many wing suit jumps do you have on this canopy? BASE 1519
  15. I went from a 170 down to a 135 and it was just fine. I had probably 300ish jumps on the 170 and 800ish base jumps so I had a bit of canopy time before the switch. Im only 1.3 on the 135 BASE 1519
  16. so if your wing loading is correct your are 170 lbs geared up that puts you at 150 lbs. If you are lighter than that your wing loading would obviously be less. Even if you are then on a 160 you are barely over 1 to 1 wing loading. Chops can happen at anytime but Ive never had one. Hopefully you get a bunch more jumps before you have to use it but either way I think you would be fine but I am not on the conservative end. BASE 1519
  17. I would think not likely but so what if it does might have to pull a little more on that rear to straighten out BASE 1519
  18. unstable is most likely the pilot. I have flown one suit from any manufacture that I was unstable in and it was a squirrel but it did not fit and it was a colugo 1 so that was not a good start. BASE 1519
  19. this thread just keeps going now Im on a 135 BASE 1519
  20. maybe its different around these parts but I don't know any of my friends that log there skydives, Im sure there are a few I just don't see them writing them down. I haven't logged since my aff jumps BASE 1519
  21. No problem let me make this easy for you to try and understand. Of all the wing suit companies only squirrel minus the c race you can punch out of to get to your toggles and intrudair you can reach your toggles without unzipping. Well and 95# of tony suits. So unless you have only flown squirrel and intrudair the other suit were built to be tight and precise without being able to get your arms through the suit to the toggles. So unless you are jumping a suit built for a fat kid and you are super skinny and you can't punch out it fits wrong. And you are right I don't know your experience but it really sounds like you know what you are talking about. Maybe your experience is different in what you call riser/toggles I don't know. Do yourself a favor and don't any of these 7 suits you have jumped off of a cliff. BASE 1519
  22. Oh my bad, I didn't realize there was a difference between the yellow things you put in your hands or the black things that the lines are attached to, I also didn't realize this was basejumper.com, I also didn't know you were and expert wingsuit fitter for every manufacturer. The faggotry on here is amazing sometimes... just shows your lack of knowledge for the riser/toggles, and the ability to punch out of different suits you can grab any riser with any of the 7 suits you have flown but not toggles. doesn't matter because you just skydive (good review though those tails sure are slidey) BASE 1519
