TomAiello 26 #26 September 6, 2006 QuoteThen why is it marketed as their "training" suit? No idea. I think it's kind of silly, but I'm not part of PF. QuoteLikewise, if you are intoning that it's actually a BASE-specific suit, who in their right mind would want to jump a suit in that environment which has several, for whatever reason, documented cases where at least one wing has released in freefall? I've lost a wing on a Skyflyer 1 in freefall (on a BASE jump). It's definitely a situation I'd prefer to avoid, but it's not an automatic death sentence, and it's not something I'd say is only possible with suit X, Y or Z.-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It does, but a lot of people forget to pass through the loop, which account for many lost wings in freefall, even during normal belly flight. I've caught more than one new Prodigy owner on the plane with their stuff hooked up wrong.www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
