hyzakite Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 I mentioned awhile back about powered parachutes. This is why I bought my land here. I was into ppc's years before buying my kite flying land. Wow! back in the day we was talking about jumping out but never did that stupid stunt! I just looked on the internet and people are actually jumping out! That's why I live here, that's why I don't need a bag of kites to go elsewhere. I even looked at the one video and it was 5000', not flying for awhile I thought 7500'+ To me it's still kiting. I don't like wasting money looking at video's on line, but this is the flying part of me, including kites. And I'm a big time Rev kite flier! I don't know if anyone got to see this but, I'm still 20 from the neck up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyzakite Posted July 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 Quote When I'm actually talking about 43+m wing I'm really talking about 500 square feet of sail area! I really think of it as a kite, not my concern if it has 68hp behind it! It's a kite! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riffclown Posted July 31, 2016 Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 Sorry if this is too much of a left turn for this topic. Did you see the guy jump tonight with NO Chute or Wingsuit?. 25,000 into a net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyzakite Posted July 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 I saw the leading up to the attempt, but I side tracked. If you do it by the book things go mostly right, there is always the oops part that distracts you from the perfect formula. He was probably dressed well enough to glide into his target. The interesting part of his decent was half the trip had no O2 in nature for him to breathe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevRookie Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 He had oxygen down to 15,000 feet then he handed off the bottle to a skydiver freefalling with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
