Re: Time/Distance Tracking Suit skydive
When you skydive the suit, make performance your second goal.
Focus on doing some rolls and front flips. Not that you'd ever need them, but they teach you a lot of awareness and ability to correct for any instability that may happen.
Focus on practicing pull, and doing so in a symmetrical manner that allows fastest pull (not going back into freefall, wasting altitude), while not introducing any instabiltiy.
As others already said, distance wise, work most with trying to feel yourself getting good forward penetration. You can use gizmo's as a guide to learn, but they are by no means a must. And try to not let those gizmo's distract you too much.
Due to the overhung exit at Brento, even a modest track (even without a trackingsuit) allows for enough clearance from the wall to safely open, and the only thing a better track (distance wise) gets you, is a bit more time in freefall due to out tracking steeper parts of the wall/talus.).
All of that is good fun, but the stability drills and being super comfortable in the suit at any angle you may find youself in, is a super important basis you need to have first. Much like driving a car, you dont go full throttle from the start. You first tackle the basics.
For when you do want to play with performance, try and maintain a good angle/pitch to keep forward speed up.
This video is a nice reference, showing Eli Gerris from Belgium with one of his winning tracks at the hungary wingsuit competition (filmed using a small wingsuit). Check the video from +- 1:40 onward. 2:05 shows the pitch angle really well.
The body position itself should be nice and streamlined. Flying your body like a jet, and not trying to grab/cup/push on the relative wind like on RW dives. Its the speed that gets you lift.
But remember that the stability stuff is equally important to work on. And biggest thing, try to have a reference. Another person. A wingsuit pilot chasing/flying with you.
Dont spend every skydive 'planking' in one body position. Be active in your flying and explore the full flight potential/envelope.
