twnsnd 1 #26 January 25, 2008 It would be MUCH more fun to talk about the WORST "pilots" we know. All this butt-kissing is unnecessary. I now consider it stevo-ing. -We are the Swoophaters. We have travelled back in time to hate on your swoops.- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KEVINLOVE 0 #28 January 27, 2008 JAY MO NO QUESTION. MY HUMBLE OPINION. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diablopilot 2 #29 January 27, 2008 I'll throw out another vote for Jay Mo for the traditional comp events. He brings the heat! As for the freestyle, I give much respect to Andy Farrington, Jeffro, Craig G. (Yeah, him) and JT. As to who I try (not very well) to model my flying after, that would be Clint, and JC. The both have the smoothest, cleanest style IMHO. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

LoudDan 0 #31 January 30, 2008 Steve-O was a freeflyer (ADD #3), and as far as freestyle goes Noah was bringing the heat at the end of last year.....complex tricks and forever water contact. Coming soon to a bowl of Wheaties near you!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buffdiver 0 #33 February 7, 2008 I agree with the general response but would also like to put my 2 cents in with the pilots that are teaching skills to up-and-coming jumpers. I have a lot of respect for great pilots that are teaching students how to fly a canopy safely and responsibly. These teachers may not be winning the medals but are teaching skills that are crucial to the survival of the sport of swooping. I myself am a student and consider my education class on "high speed approaches" priceless to my career as a skydiver. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BMFin 0 #34 February 7, 2008 QuoteBest freestlye i have seen is Vince from Babylon in Ampuriabrava. Juggling ghostrider - miracle man and a half (not sure what its called but doing a 540 thru the landing) after starting his turn blindman etc etc... I second that.. He makes it look EZ !! Noone else I have seen comes close when talking about freestyle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ianmdrennan 2 #36 December 9, 2010 No, he is not jumping. I did see him at The Last Big Splash in 2009 though, but he was just shooting ground video.Performance Designs Factory Team Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
