Though most likely a media quote in terms of 'world record' title, a group of Australian skydivers built a big wingsuit formation last week, as reported by MSN.

Click here to see the video.
Some wingsuitnews.com guess-temates as to their freefall speed:
30.0000 ft (exit) to 3.000 ft (deployment) = 27.000 ft (freefall) = 5.11363 Miles
6'47" = 407 seconds
This puts the (sustained) fallrate throughout the jump at +- 45 mph.
An incredible feat considering the thinner air at higher altitude and fattigue and muscle strain/lactic accid that kicks in after a few minutes.

François Damilano is working during the day ... Liv Sansoz is waiting for the crowd leaving...
And then it comes the shadows!!!
To be noticed: it might be one of the first wing-suit-base-jumping-by-night footage !

This is just a teaser for the upcoming Ill Vision movie. This is a different approach from the traditional BASE or Skydiving video, we want to capture the entire journey, the friendship, the scenery, the beauty and the jumps.Check it out!
Hope you like it and stay tuned for the upcoming movie.

Just another day at our local DZ. A sweet, albeit not perfect 4-way Wingsuit jump. All 4 of us wore the same model of wingsuit - the PhoenixFly Phantom. These are fantastic Wingsuits.. What a fun jump. The Skydivers are: Nial Hanley = Black & Blue colours, Kris Kac = Yellow colours, Janusz = Red & White colours & the Demon = Black colours.Check it out!

Jonathan Tagle of the PD Factory Team does some wingsuit BASE jumps from the High Nose and La Mousse in Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland.
Jay Moledzki and Jonathan Tagle of the PD Factory Team fly relative to each other... One is under a heavily loaded high performance canopy the other in freefall with a drogue.

On the way up during a 9000ft feet jump at the end of the day, Werner and I were planning on playing/testing a new footmount for my videocamera. Several of the jumpers asked for a canopy flyby, and we gladly complied.
Diving at 120mph, I managed to flare the Phoenix-Fly Stealth2 prototype wingsuit down to 8.28 mph (13,3 km/h) for a about 1,5 seconds. Climbing/gaining altitude relative to the tandem-canopy while passing it. Forward speed at that point is around 120 or so km/h (rough estemate).
The footmount needs some re-enforcement to get rid of the shake.
More experiments to follow soon!
