A high profiled jumper, have seeked my advise for where to make the world first tandem wingsuit base. I am quite upset, but also curious since I believe it will be a future wuffo activity, but it will still take years to develop a system, and experience to make it as safe as possible.

Im a bit unsure I am willing to assist, what do you all think about it?

Think it is a great idea, everyone wants to do it after watching YouTube footage. Maybe this could save lives.

Possibly use solid dropbars to connect the student to form a biplane style 2 wing setup. Just need to remember student is lower than you if proxy flying.

Anything can happen in Northern norway..

 


According to the proto type of the wingsuit "rig", it will be a "one piece" intergrated wingsuit rig to make it as slick as possible.

Tandem biplanes have been done from airplanes now for 10 years soon.

Acoording to the calendar its 1st of april

Ive been planning this for about a year now. The only way to do it right is to have a dual wingsuit attachment system-one for both jumpmers, and of course a two canopy system. A main and bely -mount reserve. Now add gopros on each foot, helmet and wrist of both fliers. Its not that extreme, but everyone has to start somehwere. Eventually a train-style wingsuit will be developed that allows 2 or more fliesr to be attached human centipede style and really snake through canyons and small holes in your trailer at the DZ. Tits!

Tits!

for the train exit I would recemend a huge tube louncher.

Landing gear for the tandem wingsuit base you can get from the Rollerman.

Actually a rollerman gear should take away the lower leg problem for a high speed landing.
