434 Our plan is to take off from an Airboard which will have two stages at a steep hill, fly a qualified distance and land on the second inflatable stage that will protect your chest besides have snow runners to make your sliding to stop more controlled. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYVm-iu1L88 http://www.vimeo.com/18954315 Gravity never fails!
Ronald Re: [434] Airboard wingsuit landing project.Put a wingsuit on, film it, put it on youtube and send it to Jeb
Aave Re: [434] Airboard wingsuit landing project.So it's a three way race now ? :D http://www.push-it.biz/ -- /Antti edit: to make clicky ...a proper application of risk-management principles would indicate that "it may not be a good idea."
434 Re: [Aave] Airboard wingsuit landing project.For me it is not a race. I would like to see this project succeed, because it is taking the whole idea back to the basic with a take off from ground and land. Learning by doing in a smaller scale. http://www.youtube.com/...ek#p/u/4/fQhbjCkAMQ8 The first take off for the Wright brothers, the first hanglider etc. It is all in the history with the very small steps that created what we see today. Gravity never fails!
Dunny Re: [434] Airboard wingsuit landing project.Maybe its time to start learning to fly a wingsuit Paul Griset imorgo? Måndalenbase yo WWTD?
434 Re: [Dunny] Airboard wingsuit landing project.I am so offended Dunny http://www.facebook.com/...8445598&comments Gravity never fails!
Dunny Re: [434] Airboard wingsuit landing project.haha There you go, 9yrs experiance! Just land it on an airboard. I know a guy that may loan you 1 Måndalenbase yo WWTD?
434 Re: [Dunny] Airboard wingsuit landing project.it is not only landing, but the take off, with a two stage system. Fly some few meters and touch down, and then repeat. What could possible go wrong? Gravity never fails!
434 Re: [Dunny] Airboard wingsuit landing project.Well, if you compare with the other landing projects I am a bit more optimistic about doing it the (W)right way in small steps. it depnce the angel and speed that need to take off, and the construction of the landing board + surface. Gravity never fails!
Dunny Re: [434] Airboard wingsuit landing project.Go flaks kompis May the force be with you Griset tomorrow? Måndalenbase yo WWTD?
434 Re: [Dunny] Airboard wingsuit landing project.It is raining my friend. I got Airboard training to do first, then ride off Gridset in the spring. Next winter we start testing the new design of landing gear. Gravity never fails!
Dunny Re: [434] Airboard wingsuit landing project.ALRIGHT thats the spirit, just before E.O.T.W. dec 2012 Aave ya better wake up Jeb some1 is looking good for camera time!! ps: rain has stopped 0c at 0230 perfect conditions 1300 BSBD Måndalen BASE Måndalenbase yo WWTD?
434 Re: [Dunny] Airboard wingsuit landing project.Read "Our" plan ;-) Do you want to be a test pilot? Gravity never fails!
Dunny Re: [434] Airboard wingsuit landing project.Think this is close as i ever want to get to landing a WS http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRmB4J2dHIg Måndalenbase yo WWTD?
434 Re: [Dunny] Airboard wingsuit landing project.It really put the wingsuitlanding in to a different perspektiv. Glad you are okay mate. Thanks for sharing. Gravity never fails!
Dunny Re: [434] Airboard wingsuit landing project.Why not just land a WS like this mate?? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4c4DhVVAwU Norges been doing it for yonks Måndalenbase yo WWTD?

Time for new toys :-) The most interesting part about this project is the take off and start flying efficient. Landing this shit, is stupid, but necessary for the project in the learning process. Just imagine you can take off in your wingsuit with your small canopy light weight transport to safe ground thing :-) This is one part of the wingsuit future. Gravity never fails!
Dunny Re: [434] Airboard wingsuit landing project.[Been there done that! Time for new toys :-) /quote] Cool Please post vid. I been waiting ages to see WS ski jumper Måndalenbase yo WWTD?
434 Re: [Dunny] Airboard wingsuit landing project.Oh, I ment skijumping and landing on skies as landing gear I have not landed a wingsuit on skies. The jump with a wingsuit is not especially complicated, but it is complicated to transform the speed and energy in to efficient wingsuit flying, and I do not think that is så interesting thinking of how much the landing gear (skies) will ruin a good flight. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZizIbSpI-g Gravity never fails!
