Hey guys I know some of you would be interested Phoenix Fly came out with two more wingsuits one an intermediate suit and the other an acrobatic suit. You can check them out at Morpheus's web site.

There is a thread in the Wingsuit forum here with direct links to the announcements as .pdf files.

I jumped the new Phantom wingsuit from the ITW this weekend.

At exit I was a little nervous about whether I would get to the main LZ on my first flight

BUT there was no need for concern, in fact the Phantom got me over the road and high Delay 50+ sec. I was blown away

(I've only got the helmet video so probably won't post it.)

Can you compare your Phantom flight with your V-1 flights? I'm just trying to get a feel for the performance range.

Thanks!

 
I didn't have my GPS with me unfortunatley.

For those familiar with the ITW, with the V1 I am opening past the river and 'nose bleed high' (copyright Douggs).

Comparing the distance flown / opening altitude I would say the Phantom has about 70% the performance range.
