How Fast did you go?

Recommended Posts

I don't know how fast I fall (no cool toys like all the other skydivers...) but I know I SMOKE people in a sitfly when they do a stand or even a head down and I've done a couple stand dives, so who knows. (I out ran Zennie in a sit, he was in a stand and he topped out at 190 or so). :)AggieDave '02

I should wear a wet suit and do a head down or stand and see if I can get some of those cool trails going like on a jet plane...


Hahaha!
Whuffo: Is that a fighter jet?
Zennie: Nah, that's just AggieDave doing a tracking dive.
;)

You can usually find me in Waller at Skydive Houston. Sometimes at Eagle Flight up in Granbury and when it opens (soon) I'll be at Skydive Aggieland in Bryan.
I've been meaning to get out to Austin Skydive Center for a while now, I'll try to when I get back in that part of the state.

295MPH 2-way freefly.
Both of us had Protracks, mine inside my helmet, hers outside. Not sure TAS/SAS- whichever is recommended in the manual.
Proper speed skydivers say that helmet mount is subject to significant errors and I personally don't think we actually went that fast.
Then again, she was a big ol' unit and we were definitely honkin' along. :o)
