SPY 0 #1 January 29, 2003 Hi birdmen (anf for sure birdwomen)! There are some post about the Crossfire, but are there anyone who tried the Xf2 while wingsuit flying? If so, what are your comments about it? Please specify wing loading and type of wingsuit. Thanks a lotSP S-P =========================== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TALONSKY 0 #2 January 29, 2003 I have about 35 total wingsuit jumps on a GTI. At the start I was using a really docile canopy Falcon 195 however I just could not handle flying that slow docile turd anymore so on my last 3 jumps I use my Crossfire 2 130 wing loaded at 1.75 to 1. I find that the Crossfire opening work great with a wing suit. I would pull and watch the opening then harness steer until I got my wings undone. As far as swooping the pond I love a wingsuit at the bottom end of the dive I fly over to the start of my setup before pulling. Blue Skies Kirk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SPY 0 #3 February 21, 2003 Thanks a lot Talonsky! Seems that we'll have the same set up: Xf2 at 1.75 with GTI...Only one reply? No other experiences or advices for wingsuit with the Xf2? Hummmmm... bizarre... S-P =========================== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mouth 0 #4 February 21, 2003 Well, it's wasn't an XF2, but my H-mod 75 did me fine and dandy for about two years loaded at 2.35. So long as you are still in the harness at pull time, I have no doubt that the crossfire will be a fine BM main. chuck -- Hot Mama At least you know where you stand even if it is in a pile of shit.

Spizzzarko 0 #9 February 27, 2003 Got a buddy here in Colorado who uses a crossfire 109. He say's it opens great on BM suit. I use an FX104. Sometimes it opens good, sometimes it doesn't. More good than bad though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SPY 0 #10 February 28, 2003 Thanks everybody for the comments! I'll be more relaxed to try it. By the way, my Xf2 99 just arrived today! I look forward to try it while flying mi GTI, but spring is far far away from now... See ya in the sky... S-P =========================== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
