vidiot 0 #1 February 22, 2003 First of all, I'd like to apologize for cross-posting, but I wanted to make sure I reach those only reading the forum of their specific interest. Maybe you can help: I'm trying to figure out more accurate fallrates for the different disciplines. With all those ProTracks out there, it should be possible to collect a wide sample of average freefall speeds and to calculate an overall avergae freefall speed for the different disciplines. So, I'd really appreciate if you could state your average fallrate for the different jump types you do, based on your ProTrack readings (TAS), e.g: RW: 120mph Freefly: 180mph Speed: 250mph Wingsuit: 80mph I'll summarize and post the results later. Thanks for your help! KlausMy Logbook Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VectorBoy 0 #5 February 23, 2003 I'm pretty consistent at about 61-59. But if I'm on a flock I usually have to dirty it up to the mid 70's range. Glen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I'm currently writing software to display those graphs, I can show you any average you want.

Quote Seriously, those numbers were just made up as an example, I don't even own a ProTrack yet... yeah, i noticed "e.g:" now :) 250 is kinda high for just average for speed dives. i get just above 240 mph average for dives with ~290 max. with a world record of 300 mph i was curious to see 250 mph average dive :) stan. -- it's not about defying gravity; it's how hard you can abuse it. speed skydiving it is ...
