arai 0 #1 March 27, 2007 I posted up about my first flight when I finally got down to eloy and did my first wingsuit jumps. But as I picked up my new suit when I was down there, and I was so busy jumping it, I missed out on the obligatory "look at my new suit" pics The weathers been crap here lately, and you know how skydivers get when that happens, so I finally got around to it. Now I have to try and make a may zhills trip happen so I have some people to fly with. Only a couple of local birds where I'm at. cheers Dan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arai 0 #2 March 27, 2007 oh come on, I'll admit I've been cooped up in cloudsville (can you tell?), but no half hearted golf clap congrats, not even a "nice helmet darth vader, wheres your lightsaber".. nothin? I guess I'll have to come meet you guys in person before I get made fun of (the all telling sign of acceptance) either that or just post whore more, I've heard that works too. maybe that I posted the flight before the suit wrecked it all. are phantoms old skool already? blue skies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The111 1 #5 March 27, 2007 Those are probably the coolest "look at me wearing a suit on the ground" pictures I've ever seen, Darth. You should market yourself to one of the wingsuit companies to spruce up their catalog shots. www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mccordia 74 #7 March 27, 2007 You always recognise the graphic nerds by the post-processing on their photos So when do we fly the first 4 way Animation/Compositing artists wingsuit formation?

IslandGuy 0 #9 March 28, 2007 If you can fly that thing half as good as you model it, you need to get your butt down here and visit the Z Flock... Make it soon, the weather is perfect... like how about this weekend.Play like your life depends on it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arai 0 #10 March 28, 2007 Matt: I like that idea, sort of a "will work for wings" type deal Jarno, yeah I suppose we are easy to spot eh? I'm a lead artist or cg supervisor depending on the project I'm on. I do a little bit of everything (or a lot depending on how much overtime they make me do ;) ). You can see some of my other work at my demo reel page www.darkbluesky.net I'm planning on a zhills trip for early may, but now just found out they may want me to go work in London for 4 months starting in 3-5 weeks so I'm unsure. Its still up in the air. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The111 1 #11 March 28, 2007 Damn, that was a cool video. I thought I had it rough when my job made me travel for a few days. I could never take a 4 month business trip. www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
