pilotdave 0 #10 December 11, 2007 Dunno why they wrote about it, but I can tell you that skydivingmovies.com is getting inundated by visitors from searches (mostly google) for wingsuits (and wind suites). People are looking for more info. Searches for "jeb" are up mysteriously too. Attached is a graph of the number of search engine referrals to sdm from searches for "wingsuit" over time.
