Thanks!

lol. They can’t all be bangers 🤣

Didn’t know tandem wingsuiting existed. Anyway, for solo wingsuit you need at least 200 jumps, so not only you have to do the course and get your A license (or equivalent), but do at least 175 more jumps after that.

No matter your experience level, everyone starts on the leash and goes through the same progression. There was a guy there at the same time as me who had never flown in a WS before (or even made a skydive) and was progressing at about the same rate as me. There was another guy who had more WS experience than me and was progressing slower because he tried to rush the process. You have to forget everything you know and relearn. I intentionally spent more time on the leash and harness and belly to set a solid foundation. A lot of people go with an end goal in mind within a certain amount of hours, but you’ll be better served to just take it slow and master every step along the way. It is VERY different flying than WS BASE. Like, completely different configuration. If you’re going to learn transitions and then immediately try to translate it to transitions in the valley, don’t. You’ll want some time in the skydiving environment to really work them out because it’s different.

Thanks for the response! This helps a lot. Yeah, as with all tunnel flying, it puts your skills in check pretty quick. Relearning from scratch just about. Given your advice maybe I’ll try to go for a week a few months prior to The Valley that way I can translate some of it to the sky. Worth bringing your own suit? Or just rock one of theirs? I currently have an ATC 3.

It all depends on how many hours you plan to fly and what your goals are. The tunnel is going to help you really understand how little movement it takes to make a big translation. This will be beneficial for multi-ways in skydiving. Be conscious of the difference between tunnel and BASE config as you might start to fly head high and arms back - which is the opposite of what you want in the BASE environment. Also, I don’t know your WS BASE experience, but I would not recommend throwing any transitions in the BASE environment until you are absolutely 100% dialed in the tunnel and in the skydiving environment. I’m guessing by you being in an ATC that this is your first WS BASE trip. Make sure you have your 2-piece dialed and I’d recommend making your first flights in Brento and focusing on getting your cross 1:1 dialed before heading to the valley. Happy to help.

Also, leave the ATC at home. The Havoc and Freak are better in the tunnel.

Right on, This will be my 6th time to The Valley. Not even sure if I plan on using the ATC3 there this season as I have been having a lot of fun in the PALA4 and feel like there’s still a lot of room for improvement there with consistency. I was planning for a 10 days total trip. So maybe 7-8 flyable days. One last question… How many hours did you fly in how many days?

Nope.

@@bmac615 dope. Gonna do this till I can get some proper slider keeper blocks put on

Thanks 🤗

Too late, already did it :)

It’s a nice feeling for sure

@@bmac615 how do you get into it

@@ATP_915 Starts with learning to skydive. Then learning to BASE jump. Then learning to fly a wingsuit. Then you put it all together :)

@@bmac615 thanks dude

Many thanks!

You can begin your journey tomorrow. th-cam.com/video/crCo9Y6o6n8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=U5E4rF5m7h-3y-vr

Start skydiving and open your canopy at 3500 ft Thank me later

Just a regular guy. Nothing special about me.

Yes, High Nose exit in Lauterbrunnen Valley

I have the full canopy flight and landing on another video on my channel

Thanks, bro!

Well, that’s the first time I’ve received that comment.

Some people use dual parachute systems with BASE canopies w/ WL < .75. To level set, this is a much higher risk scenario than a standard WS BASE flight from an exit like Brento. I have more than 3,000 skydives and trained with bobsbase.com and arcusflight.ws/team/daniel-darby/ for three years before attempting this flight. I highly encourage you to reach out to them to help you put a plan together.

Depends on the exit and objective. Most of my flights on this trip to The Valley were training for Kandersteg, so, I was focused on my start, dive, flare and opening altitude.

You got any cool exits we can burn?

@@theginganinjaofficial For sure!

Yep, awesome dude!

Game over.

Likewise!

We have a rule to open before we reach the houses and landing area.

We dive at the trees and ground to generate speed/energy so we can level out or pull up if we need to.

Typically people fly straight out to the LZ. Going left is a wall flight with a right turn to the LZ.

It’s a mental game.

Nah, the opposite. Very in control of my mind/thoughts :)
