KrisFlyZ 0 #27 March 18, 2004 Quote Hell yes! I hate watching my (face) cheeks flap on video! It's so embarassing . . . I like my videos to be done from 10-20 feet away . . . Full face helmet. Quote My shirt came up on one vid, and it just looks funny with all the rippling . . . not attractive at all. I'd like to come to my own conclusions....

Vertifly 0 #28 March 18, 2004 Yeah. Let's face it, what we do is hardly 'a natural act'. It is going to take about 100,000 more years of evolution before our bodies look good at terminal velocity. Until then, I'll just enjoy the 1-G aesthetics without relative-wind making me look like a 90-year old... oh, yum yum anyway! it is soooo much better that way.

Just to be remotely serious for one second, I'm extremely claustrophobic, and being crammed into a plane is bad enough. Try putting me on a crowded plane and then sticking a full face on me-- I'll kill someone. Just keep the cameraguys back!

I have my "plea" all ready worked out. "Officer, I swear ! I lost control in freefall and built up speeds IN EXCESS OF TERMINAL VELOCITY! The jumpsuit just ripped right off my body! Good thing the harness is made out of speed-rated materials." And to those who are concerned about how the body looks. It's like "who cares?" But, so far, I've been OK.
