bodypilot1 0 #1 March 8, 2009 While seaching some of the blog, I ran across this. http://www.mentalfloss.com/blogs/archives/14564 The part that says, "their descent to between 60-90 mph, and quieting the wind rush around them to a degree that they can hold casual conversations with one another while traveling in formation." is funny as shit. Wonder who gave them that info? Also make sure to click on the video and check out the example. Be sure to fast forward over it at 9:36..... The general public must say, WFT? www.WestCoastWingsuits.com www.PrecisionSkydiving.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yuri_base 1 #4 March 8, 2009 "Yuri I flew for 19.46 seconds in 1994 at a barely-measurable altitude of 2 centimeters" WTF??? How do they know my best kept secret? And while the author is correct that "wingsuiters often travel 2.5 feet forward for every 1 foot down (that’s called the “lift-to-drag ratio”, or L/D)", he forgot to mention that "f10ckers, on the other hand, often travel 2.5 feet down for every 1 foot forward (that’s called the “drag-to-lift ratio”, or D/L)"Android+Wear/iOS/Windows apps: L/D Vario, Smart Altimeter, Rockdrop Pro, Wingsuit FAP iOS only: L/D Magic Windows only: WS Studio Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
