ManBird 0 #2 May 5, 2003 The space suit looks sick as f*¢k. Very nice. That rodeo, aside from the rotation on exit, came off pretty nicely. Good stuff. Not sure who was backflying, but if you really stick those arms out flat whilst on your back, it stops the rocking. Not an insult or accusation, just a tip. I had the same problem for awhile and discovered that my tail was really big and my arms were really small when on my back. Very cool video. I need to get out there and flock with you guys some time."¯"`-._.-¯) ManBird (¯-._.-´"¯" Click Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LouDiamond 1 #4 May 5, 2003 Yes , that would be me filming. Some times I find myself more preoccupied with filming than flying and get a little bit sloppy but hey as long as you can see the Birdman it's all good. BTW, clouds are neat to fly through but bumpy."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You did a great job of keeping them in frame, and you are definitely one of the most active at getting suits on video and then sharing your recordings right now (out of planes, anyway)."¯"`-._.-¯) ManBird (¯-._.-´"¯" Click Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been trying to talk kevin into jumping from a local water tower but he seemed to think twice about it when I told him I'd film it from the ground I keep telling him either way he's a winner, he'll either stick it or be the first to land a suit so it's all good"It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkymonkeyONE 4 #10 May 6, 2003 Much flatter and smoother backflying by you, Scott, in the second segment. Still, you ought to de-arch some more and punch it out. You can see that Kevin had his feet on his ass for the majority of the flights. Try putting a faster, more efficient, belly to earth flyer up front with the camera facing to the rear. Fly some tight diamonds like that and work on flying with clean wings and lots more forward speed as a group. Still, the video was cool and it's great that you guys are jumping together so often. With your SkyFlyer you ought not have any problem keeping up when Kevin points his toes. Later, monkey lips! Chuckie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Where am I gonna find a rear facing camera helmet?

SkymonkeyONE 4 #12 May 7, 2003 Buy you a top mount pad for your helmet, then put your camera up there. Simply turn it around on the bracket and you are set. BASE guys to it all the time. Chuckie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
