jakee 1,489 #83 October 30, 2012 QuoteThere were no misunderstanding, some jumpers here stated clear that they are sure it is possible to gain altitude with "strong wind" or "dive and flare" which is totally not possible away from a ridge/cliff, now that some probably done some research and realize how much nonsense they were talking, they are trying to blame my spelling saying they did not understand me, when I'm saying exactly the same thing using the same words since the start of the topic. Well that sounds reasonable. Oh no wait, it's complete bullshit. If you think there is no misunderstanding between yourself and other posters on this topic then you don't understand English. So go and troll some fucking Afrikaans forum or something.Do you want to have an ideagasm? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jakee 1,489 #84 October 30, 2012 Quote For the 20th and hopefully last time I will say again, YES a couple of jumpers here claimed out, loud and with authority ( even calling me stupid) that they know for sure it is possible to gain altitude without thermals just by speeding or diving and flaring, we were NOT talking about momentous small gain in altitude...

lurch 0 #87 October 30, 2012 I can't stop laughing. This is the best, most obliviously, outrageously comic troll job I've ever seen. My favorite part is where she claims that Tony has been building bigger suits because she told him to. Yes, that must be it, he designed his recent suits in obedience to orders issued by a random flake who called him up on the internet posing as an all knowing authority in the art despite having never actually flown a wingsuit. Who knew she was the real brains behind it all? I'm impressed. This is some really funny shit. -BLive and learn... or die, and teach by example.

Again for the 21th time, not everything that you see is how you think it works. He had a momentous small gain in climb over the plane because the plane gave him enough energy airspeed to climb, but that is NOT how non-powered aircrafts gain altitude, they need columns of air, thermals to lift them. Without that planes energy that suit wouldn't have that climb.Lauren Martins - www.youtube.com/user/gisellemartins20 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, because every wingsuit jumper I met in person think non-powered aircrafts gain altitude and fly hundred of miles by "speeding" or " diving and flaring" wingsuiters for some reason has this stupid misconception, and they always use the tail exit climb as an example to explain how they think gliders fly to clouds etc... Just like a dozen have given this very same example here several times. wingsuiters are flying a glider without motor, powered by gravity but they still think they are flying a powered aircraft, because they always want to apply powered laws to explain how their wingsuit ( glider) flies. its unbelievable.Lauren Martins - www.youtube.com/user/gisellemartins20 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You really think that anyone here believes you can dive and flare a wingsuit across the countryside? When we discuss the ability to climb, the starting point or ending point of the climb are irrevelant, as long as there is a point where the jumper is experiencing a positive rate of climb. What your non-skydive brain seems to overlook, is that without a wingsuit, and even with some older wingsuiits, there was no ability to break that magic barier and achieve a positive rate of climb. Data logging altimeters were available when the modern wingsuit hit the market, and from day one jumpers were always looking to go slower. Everyone wanted to see the lowest descent rate possible. So when the suits made it possible to actually go the other way, and show a positive rate of climb, that's a big deal to jumpers, even if the peak of the climb is much lower than the beginning altitude of the flight. Side note - get a grip on yourself. You're tyring to argue with a guy who's been flying gliders and planes for over 40 years (and still does), and has a PhD in physics and teaches at a major university. You claim to be educated yourself, but you obviously haven't learned the value of experience. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
