heavydude 0 #1 March 6, 2008 Check this out: I was jumping at Perris about 2 weeks ago; this dude is jumping w/ a small Kayak, freefalls with it, opens the chute and then swoop/surfs the pond w/ a big roostertail so must be going fast. Pretty cool huh. I wonder how easy it is to keep upright during freefall in kayak ? W/ Red Bull on everything it appeared to be a film stunt of some sort.

Hausse 0 #4 March 6, 2008 I've been wondering if anybody ever attempted the stunt from the James Bond movie. Skydive, cut your main away over water and than instantly start a dive. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CSpenceFLY 1 #5 March 6, 2008 Not a new stunt. Chris Gay did it years ago. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ozzy13 0 #8 March 8, 2008 That was my video on SDM. That guy was real nice. Didn't get any video of him in the air. It looks like a lot of fun. Way too much work for me though. He had two Pilot chutes attached to that thing and i watched his EP's and it looked like a lot of work to get out of that thing.I thought it looked cool so I stuck it in thereNever give the gates up and always trust your rears!

heavydude 0 #9 March 9, 2008 Thanks for posting the movie ! I like that site w/ all the clips and stuff. Gotta get a camera myself. Did not know about the pilot chutes. I was there on Monday and they seemed to do a number of jumps, looked unique thats for sure. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heatmiser 0 #12 March 9, 2010 Any one else think it looked like his pilot chute was dancing around in his burble a while on the first deployment?What you say is reflective of your knowledge...HOW ya say it is reflective of your experience.
