Locals recommend 10 - 12 seconds for low experience / people new to MB. (btw MB is NOT a place to learn BASE or to go without previous terminal slider up experience, read 'The List')

Experienced jumpers who have an efficient track can make good distance down the talus and can take it to 15 - 18sec.

DW (RIP) made a 22 sec delay there using track pants, video is on the net.

...... and Robi has done over 70 seconds using the PF ws Tongue

I witnessed one of the prototype Pressurized suits being flown off MB - the forward speed and glide is really impressive!! (as you see in video)

Long flights,

Holy fuck! Yeah, the forward speed is nuts. Weird body position. I thought DW did 28? Must watch the vid again.
