Rdutch 0 #2 September 5, 2003 Oh shit the first low pull is insane, good to see he is ok. Edited to add, they all are insane! Ray Small and fast what every girl dreams of! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikemc 0 #3 September 5, 2003 scary stuff thanks for sharing, how did numbers 5's reserve deploy? was just an unfreefly friendly rig? and was number 6 intentional by his team mate? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomAiello 26 #4 September 5, 2003 Have a look at this one. I believe the lesson here was "be sure you can reach the handles." I understand the jumper was wearing gloves, and also that his handles had been sucked inside his (old style french) wingsuit. He occasionally posts here, so maybe he'll add his thoughts.-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

twnsnd 1 #7 September 5, 2003 That is what we call induced line twists. I am hoping the this person will share with us what happened to cause that.

Aromain 0 #8 September 5, 2003 I saw that one before where he barely misses the shed. http://www.headdown.net/default.cgi?mode=movies&area=murphy If you look at the movie called "low pull" this is the same one. Here is what the "author" said "My name is Per Eriksson, my nick is PerFlare, and it is me on the video. I'm one of the guy's in the "Off the mountain ..." also. I don't mind guy's watching the video but please do not say it is a fake, it did not feel like a fake when it happend :-) About the reservride (short version): I did some aggressive canopy control at 400m and I had my wingsuit on. I ended up with a linetwist. When I tried to cut away I did not work. I guess that my rig with softhausing was an issue, me wearing gloves another. I took my gloves of and then did a successful cut away. Then I tried to pull my reserve but was unsuccessful because the wingsuit was in the way. when I finally did get my reservhandle out it was a little bit low. I do not have a cypress or a RSL I was just lucky to get a fast opening and lucky enough to miss a big aircrafthangar. As you can see I did a nice landing and did not have a scratch ... What can I say, sometimes you are just lucky!"------------------------------------------------ "Matter fact go and get your chrome, cause I'd rather be, broke thogether, then rich alone."

TomAiello 26 #10 September 5, 2003 More importantly, he's a dead ringer for Angelina Jolie! Seriously, I did hear a rumor that he and Angelina had gotten a bit, uh, friendly, during the Tomb Raider filming...-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fab 0 #12 September 5, 2003 thanks..that second movie is going to give me a nightmare now... You can see him hold on to the pilot-chute instead of tossing it and seeing his cypres fire...I wonder if he finished his AFF after this? _______________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trigger 0 #13 September 5, 2003 Crikes!!!!!!!!!!!!I've deniably met the guy responsible for the No1 low pull & though i no physcologist,to my reckoning he's perfectly SANE. Slight touch of loss of altitude awareness me thinks...CHOP WOOD COLLECT WATER. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
