no i know nada, about acro. but heres another question, is it safe to have a line attached from your brake handles to the riser loops.i was thinking this looks pretty good to have so that the brakes and line does not fly off all over the place if you were to let go.
Interesting to see this from a perspective as a skydiver swooper. Basically we call a swooper somebody who specializes in the kind of landings you do here but our swoops are initiated from way up higher (1000ft or higher on a high wing load canopy) and involve way more speed and distance covered over the ground. The way we measure wing load seems also totally different. We use the division of the surface of the canopy (in square ft) by the weight of the load (in lbs). The wing load of 7,4 kg to a 12.5m² canopy comes at 1.4. I don't know if this is a lot of not but for a skydive ram air parachute that's a pretty average wing load. Swooping canopies are more high performance and start at about 1.8 while at 2.4 things get serious. The really high performance experts pilots go up to 3 wing load and much higher which usually translates to very tiny canopies about 70 sq ft in size for an average weight pilot. 70sq ft is about 6,5 m². This is an example of a bit of extreme wing loading and swooping: th-cam.com/video/3zpWWTdfpGY/w-d-xo.html
Skydiving rigs are PARACHUTES with 7/9 double cells. These are paragliders - the performance is night and day different, and they handle and feel completely different.
You're comparing apples with pears. You guys have parachutes we have paragliders. You can't gain altitude with a chute it's made to descend but with a paraglider you can actually fly. I've not seen anyone performing helico or sat on a parachute. Are there any?
Fools who complaining about helmet, please see the shadow at 4:46. You can't see the helmet because camera is on it. What a landing !
The shooting on those 2 last dynamic stalls... Jesus! Looks like the video is on high speed... Sick!
Wow Pal! You are one sick dude... Your precision on this little wing is impressive. Keep up the good work!
Loopy
Beautiful
That was SICK and AWESOME. The Landing - Jeeeeeeezzzzz!!!!!
Вот это экстрим!!! После такого спуска и у меня бы волосы дыбом встали ))))
i like your technik so much!!! supergeil!
pana increible tus maniobras pero ese aterrizaje del puctas con la velocidad que entras !!!
super cool video!
Seriously people, he is filming with a Helmet Cam! e.g. Film Looking forward Helmet on! Do you honestly think a Red Bull guy would not be branded!!
SO So gnarly, you are one sick puppy!
So sick!
oH Yes ! Impressive Landing ... Very good, but without Helmet ... The stones would scare me, and all the rest too.
I love your videos ;-)
He was with helmet, he took it off to talk to the camera mounted on his helmet
