(Sorry for poor english)..

Seeing as I just did this myself if you use the search menu you can find endless info on tracking and tracking gear . peace

I do not call Phoenix track pants i call them FLY PANTZ, and so far I do not know any other producer make better pantz!

Yes you can use them from airplanes, and it is recommended since it is alot of power in them.

? I dont understand the Question! You can make slider down jumps with them if you want!

Same same you can jump any delay with them!

Phoenix-fly is a good producer, and in my opinion the best! Cant go wrong with them!

Know your personal abilities, your personal limit, and have respect! You should find people with knowledge at your drop zone, if not you can start flying in delta position, and go slightly more cropped with your upperbody!

Good luck!

hi! phoenix fly is not the only producer of tracking stuff. check out for pressurized.at (very hot stuff!!!! i use it and i love it...) and birdman.com - but phoenix fly pants and jacket are the most seen tracking stuff on cliffs around.

- in every case you should train from the plane, and not just once.

- body position and pulling are probably new for you

- track from the plane until you can feel that you have good forward speed

- if you feel good with the tracking stuff from plane, jump from balloon

- go to big wall like monte brento and have fun

by the way, i would never use my tracking stuff while jumping slider down...[crazy]

jumping slider off with track-pants could cause more problems than it solves...you could easily got unstable after 3sec delay, and i don`t think you would get more clearance from the object than without pants...

You should search the origin of your question. Why do you ask this question? You should ask your mentor. If you don't have one, get one.
This is solid advice.
Take care,

Track pants causing more trouble slider down? Get real! If you cant jump them slider down 1-3 sec you should not jump them at all! If there is any point jumping them slider down is another Q! Sub terminal they work perfect IF YOU CAN HANDLE them!

Edi the pressurized Is a fly wingpants, not track pants! It is a bit further and closer to a prodigy or simular outfit! And I am told you need a bit more experience to handle this suit, than Fly pantz or track pants. Please correct me if I am wrong!

I'll add to the above only that you should give these things the respect they deserve. First time out of a plane you'll notice that it's like you've got rockets on your feet -- they really push, and they'll spin you up if you're not careful. So, as somebody already said, take them out of a plane more than once.

Same warning goes for jumps from an object. Tracking pants can spin you, especially if a snap lets loose or something, but even if they don't. Often, this happens at the worst of times. Build that possibility into your plan.

One last thing, if I may. The visuals are awesome when you really get moving. Stay smart, and don't find yourself lower than you'd intended to be chasing a little extra distance.

i guess your quote was meant to me!?....

i say he could not necessary would be unstable with this pants...i based my reply to a new jumper(since he even bringing up that question) not a jumper with 1000jumps and years on his back...

wearing track pantz for slider down jumps... ok, i´m allways open for new ideas but i can not imagine that it would make sense for me...

can you tell me stories or expiriences? what is the argument for tracking suited a delay shorter than 3sec?

Let the dude think for him self, and ask the question again! Is there any use for track pants slider down? I would say only if you go deep 4, and who do that regulary? Only few people I know have done that on purpose!

Peace everyone Track pants s a powerful tool, handle them with care, and have respect. I thought I did say so before!

I did it because of cold

Thanks all for advices and information..
Sorry for the question about the delay mini..it's only because i don't speak english as good as you..when i ask that it's only for the performance and for security..i know that i don't jump from small objetc with it!!!
have nice end of day.
