Got to jump mine too As Yuri said, it was quite hard to try to keep the performances. I definitely need to go back to the gym if I want to handle the beast

Just received mine today. Had been sitting at the post office all weekend but I'm sure I'm gonna manage to find a way to try it before Friday ;) Suits fits as it has been ordered (same fit as my Phantom), really nicely built, interesting technical improvements (benefits from the Phantom) as well as cosmethic/comfort ones. Let's get some flights with the beast to see what we can take out of it :) Jul. JFK #1013 PM Me No Adrenalin.... No Fun! "Minds are like parachutes the

Just checked Nick and they definitely updated the page, you probably had the old version in your webbrowser cache. Jul. JFK #1013 PM Me No Adrenalin.... No Fun! "Minds are like parachutes the

More seriously, I have an Observer and a T6. The Observer is lightweight, small and quite robust (Steel elastomer version). The T6 can record altitude to be transfered on the computer. Both work great for height measurement. I tend to use more the T6 nowadays in skydiving/BASE as I can record the freefall (however at a low resolution, 1 measurement per second). Jul.

I wouldn't call that a video as I feel like it's more a movie: it has a goal and is not only a collection of jumps. I was there when she did some of the footage in Norway and she got the shots right the first time. I was really happy to notice that Lika is not only a really talented Skydiving/BASE videographer but also has really good editing ideas. Hopfully the DVD will be released soon so that I can get the copy I already ordered Jul. JFK #1013 PM Me No Adrenalin.... No Fun! "Minds are like parachutes the

Didn't you mis a "0"? :) The GTI or the Phantom will surely do. Here is a good advice. Why one would like to put the carriage before the horse? Get yourself used to flying with a smaller wings and you'll enjoy even more flying with bigger ones later on :) And don't worry for your investment, you'll always find someone to buy your old suit.

I'd take it as a lack of respect if someone was coming to jump my local object without getting in touch with me at all. An object is not only an exit point located by GPS. Julien. JFK #1013 PM Me No Adrenalin.... No Fun! "Minds are like parachutes the

Glad things went that fast dude :) Now it's time to keep on jumping that suit, seems you're progression is quite good :) Jul. JFK #1013 PM Me No Adrenalin.... No Fun! "Minds are like parachutes the

Hey Coca, seems it's getting better :) One mistake when I started head up flying is that I was not dynamic enough with my legs, meaning that I was focusing too much on my arms because it's natural and my legs were going everywhere. One way to get the good feeling about the dynamic of the legs/heels would be to try standing with your arms straight to the sky, like you would let yourself fall vertical at the swimming pool :) When you get a stable position in the airflow like this you should be able to slow yourself down by starting spreading your legs, and don't use your arms for that. @+, Jul.

Been going to the gym twice a week to get ready for the summer. My upper body is fine now but I just don't know how to workout my calves for static force. Streching is always good, before and especially after. May be I'll buy scott's book.. JFK #1013 PM Me No Adrenalin.... No Fun! "Minds are like parachutes the

You might want to check out the old posts of the forum. There has been few discussions about that topic. It doesn't seem to be such a smart thing to do... Jul. JFK #1013 PM Me No Adrenalin.... No Fun! "Minds are like parachutes the
