Gonna try flying just bottom half of Prodigy this weekend. Why not?

Since Prodigy pants do not restrict your motion in any way (running exits, aerials, deployment, emergency procedures, running landings), why limit tracking capabilities by using regular tracking pants?

Anyone tried this already in BASE? (I'm just skydiving.) Will post here my observations (main question is, will it be too head low).

i don´t think it will work very good. there will be to much pressure on your legs and you won´t have enough power on your upper body without jacket to compensate.

let us know how it was!

My impressions

It's tracking on steroids!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why wouldn't one use Prodigy pants in BASE environment?

I don't know.

Because the whole outfit way outflies the pants by themselves, and offers no downside.

Do you know how many bingo markers with your name were sold this weekend?

"Since Prodigy pants do not restrict your motion in any way (running exits, aerials, deployment, emergency procedures, running landings), why limit tracking capabilities by using regular tracking pants?"

1) You would need to buy an additional wingsuit just
for the pants. I have

2) The wingsuit would get you farther anyway. So why 'go topless'?

3) Can you prove that prodigy pants can get you farther than Pants plus Jacket?
