That's cheating! If a suit has wings it is called wingsuit. But nice flight! Smile

Re: [Lokky_luke] Trackorama summer 2009 by VKB
do you think you could make one of those tracking suits in all white?
Shortcut
Re: [CebJorliss] Trackorama summer 2009 by VKB
who makes those suits ?! and is that Katthammeren north germany/denmark ?
Shortcut
Re: [lewissimo] Trackorama summer 2009 by VKB
AFAIK, it's an experimental prototype made by VKB. Not something you'll ever be able to pick off the shell.

Katthammeren is a terminal wall in Norway.

Re: [434] Trackorama summer 2009 by VKB
sorry i shouldnt ask about the site !! amazing suit tho :)

Re: [lewissimo] Trackorama summer 2009 by VKB
No worries, we just have some fun of the No site naming rule, which serve it´s purpose where BASE is illegal and/or locals want to protect their sites.

Re: [434] Trackorama summer 2009 by VKB
What setup was the camera man flying? Are there any new GPS figures for this suit? I remember seeing one video few years ago that said something about 293km/h total speed if i remember correctly, did the suit go though any major changes since then? Amazing flight btw, very impressive:) Time for Virtus 3 video?:P

Im the camera man, and I was wearing the G20 pants from Pressurized, and my rubber band setup jacket. very tight jacket.. And a Razor rig, with a 265 Troll inside.
Regular skydiving goggles, a blue sweater,white socks and no underwear.

And 293 kmh total speed has been achieved. With the GGG2

Re: [Basjkall] Trackorama summer 2009 by VKB

Re: [juanitos] Trackorama summer 2009 by VKB

Re: [vid666] Trackorama summer 2009 by VKB
Does flying without underwear increase your glide ratio? :P

Re: [Lukasz_Se] Trackorama summer 2009 by VKB
Of course, and if you have a big penis it helps to duck tape it between your legs, to reduce the drag even more. Should give you around 10-15 kmh more depending on your penis size.

That's where you're going wrong mate! You're wasting a heap of performance by doing that.

Just google "America's Cup" and "winged keel"

You get the idea
