@HalvorAngvik That's good news my friend! It's really an amazing video. I hope you get top sponsors to enjoy your sports, the best equipment possible, and stay safe. God Speed, Halvor. (wow, that dead tree sure does stick up above the rest ... when I was visualising your flight full screen, I must say I nearly shat!)
From no sky diving experience, how many years would you say it takes to get to a level where you can start proximity flying? I've read about the progression, but can't see anywhere talking about time estimates...
thats because it cant really be measured in time. How long time it takes depends on
1) how much time and money you have to do AFF course, buy euipment and jump an insane ammount of jumps, and travel to jump even more when you cant jump due to winter or bad weather on your local dropzone
2) how fast you learn, and how the rules for wingsuit flying from planes in your country is
3) how easy you can get into the base community and the avaliability of mountains to jump where you live
@HalvorAngvik Planning to take my AFF in Spain this spring, so guess I'll start to get an idea then. Really inspiring stuff to watch; must be the most incredible feeling to actually do it :)
yeah, thats the only way to find out. Once you've done your fist 100 and get to talk to experienced jumpers, you'll get a good understanding of the work you'll have to put into it
I had around 500+ skydives when i started wingsuit base, and have about 1000+ skydive- and basejumps now. I never started proxyflying, I just gradualy aproach the terrain once i knew i was comfortable enough to focus on something else than just the exit, flight and pull. If you feel that you have to make a choice to start proxyflying, you are most likely not ready, it should come naturaly and in small steps over a lot of jumps :)
This.... is the reason I'm starting skydive training soon. I don't care how much time, study, practice, money or distance it takes, I'm doing this shit.
I really like all your vids, but this one...! The colors, the line, the landscape, the music...
I guess you never had a 'big' trouble during your base jump session (otherwise, you wouldn't be here), but did you had a big scary jump session? (tangled up with lines, wingsuit teared up, etc...)
I recently did my first parachute jump of my life and I gotta say this video is even more impressive now that I have a 'slight' idea of the feeling. Who knows maybe i'll be doing this in 10 years ^^
about 200km/h groundspeed and 250 airspeed, depending on the suit, mass/wing ratio and angle of attack. Usually i fly between 150 and 180km/h groundspeed
@Snowwie88: I suspect the problem isn't vertical speed, especially for some of the newer slower wingsuits. Instead I think the horizontal speed is the problem. Let's say you are falling at only 30kph but are moving forward at 120kph when you contact the water. You're going to skip off the water at least once, and probably have a very difficult time controlling your second and third impacts. At the very least you'd need a thin flat piece of plastic over your chest and belly to distribute.
you can flat out the vertical speed to a point where you might survive, but the horizontal speed will kill you. If you are going to land a wingsuit it has to be done on a slope on the right angle, like a ramp.
A question about wingsuit variants. Off hand I'd think proximity flying would be more fun, relaxing and safe with a slow wingsuit like Ghost or Stealth. But then I was thinking maybe these are more difficult to control accurately... and quickly when necessary. So my question is, which wingsuit variants are best for "really close" proximity flying? And if you're going to proximity fly but stay somewhat further away from objects, would the slowest wingsuits be viable, or not?
@honestann well they are only able to do this because their country has a lot of natural resources and no immigrants, otherwise they would have to work more than 30 hours a week lol
Speed is your friend, the more speed you have the more energy you have to manouver. big floaty flocking suits will get you far, but unless you can fly them steep and fast its not the best choice for proximity flying.
You can never gain altitude when the only force in work is gravity, but you can change your vertical angle a lot. When you approach something it is important to fly on a steep angle, so you have the option to flat out and gain altitude compared to the object you are aiming at.
I think such a wingsuit constructed the way so it partially works like a canopy? Right? Otherwise I can't understand how it is possible to keep flying so long distance? How close to a surface do you fly and what is the angle? How much experience does it take to be able to fly this way? ..Sorry, so many questions :) Thank you in advance.
It is constructed as an inflating airfoil covering your legs and arms, creating lift like a wing or a canopy. You get glideratios around 3-1 with high performance wings.
I would say it takes enough experience to fly this way, how much that is varies a lot, but you definitely don't start flying like this on your first day :)
I just wanted to thank you HalvorAngvik for the amazing and inspring stuff you and the other jumpers do, When i was very sick in hospital, watching clips like this gave me the will power to continue, and its a dream of mine to oneday try out Base myself to help inspire others like myself. So thank you from the bottom of my heart, its people like you that played a role in saving mylife :)
Ive had one tandem at 7000 feet, it was so scary jumping, but freefall was an amazing feeling
I started skydiving this year after watching a special on 60minutes about proximity flying and its all i think about now is skydiving. I know you have to have a certain amount of jumps/experience to even use a wingsuit (200 i think) but do you also have to know how to rock climb? also wondering how often you do this and what you do for a living to support your lifestyle? also do you have to arch belly down while using a wingsuit? what are the differences between the two?
Its not a bad idea to be comfortable with altitude and have done some climbing, but 90% of all jumps ive done is just steep hiking, so if you dont like being exposed you just stay away from the jumps that involve climbing.
About arching, why do you arch when you skydive? To be in a stable possition for falling straight down. If you arch in a wingsuit, you will still not go straight down, but you will stall the suit. In a wingsuit you de-arch to create a wing foil with your body.
@HalvorAngvik Thanks for the info. I've climbed a few times and I was curious as to how you get to the top and how the wingsuits work. I've seen yours and Jokke's videos, very nice flying keep it up. love the videos :)
@XxBIoodshotxX My dad dragged me up there on the places where they dropped....its qute a hike but its not advanced rock climbing where you need special equipment.
not so much when I basejump. the noice from the air when you fly is to much to hear the music, but I often have it on for the exit and the canopy ride. Even if i would hear the music i dont think i would notice its there in flight, im to consentrated about the line. I use it a lot for speedflying though :)
Im assuming you guys edited the flying parts to make it slowed down, because the views from the lookout you guys look SUPER fast!! Do you guys have any videos where it is NOT slowed down? I wanna get an idea how fast your going.
Its not slowed down, but the wide angle lense might make it seem a bit slow. I haven't been doing GPS logging in a while, but i think my speed usually is between 150-230 km/h depending on the angle
What's happening with the orange wingsuit at the end? Seems a bit strange, all the proximity flying then that at the end of the video?.. I've heard someone mention helium in the suit but I wasn't sure whether to believe it?..
@HalvorAngvik I heard you need at least 200 skydiving - jumps if you want to do Basejumping. Did you jump over 200 times in 2 years? or did you just do it ^^
There is no regulations, but about 200 jumps is reasonable if you want to have a safe foundation for bigwall jumping. It also helps your progress faster in the base environment. I did about 250 in those two years.
ooooh, there are tons of things i want to try still, but of what i do now it's definitely wingsuit proximity flying i like the most, but its good with the variation and to have different stuff for the different seasons and speedriding and skiing is great to :)
Awesome dude! Thanks for the info comments - great for beginners doing research - you're a funny guy too! Look forward to more Vids - blue skies and safe rides.
Its not superhard to learn, but it requires some time and dedication because it takes time hiking up those mountains to get the practise. It also takes quite a lot time to prepare to even start basejumping, and from there to start wingsuit base jumping.
If you are standing on scratch with no skydiving experience it takes less preparations to start speedriding, than to start basejumping.
It is two totally different sports, so its hard to compare the two in terms of difficulty. Neither is hard in any way if you go to the right place with the right gear and the right guys, and don't totally fuck up. The main difference is that if you start the right place in speedriding and fuck up, you can try again. If you fuck up in base thats harder
They're making a 3d movie about this... Can't wait to see that on IMAX 3d.
It's really the closest we can get to real flight, so I'd love to try out a wingsuit (but then as a normal skydiver. I'm not one of those ultimate thrillseekers like the guys (an girls?) in this video.)
You Sir are an inspiration, I am new to the sport and will be dedicating myself for the next 2 years to gain as much knowledge and experiance as I can. I hope that some day I can visit that part of the world to experiance the ultimate human flight.
Amazing stuff, I'd love to try this. I have done some skydiving in the past and there isn't too much skill involved, this looks alot different though. So how much skill is involved in this and how long does it take to be able to get to a basic level ? Thanks
you need a littlebit more than basic level to fly this close within reasonable risks. I have focused on proxy flying every spare time i have, both winter and summer the last two years and have done about 200 wingsuit jumps during that time, but it all depends on avaliable jumps, time, who you jump with and your personal progression.
Oh my god, I want to be you when I grow up. Videos like this are basically why I'm living in a tiny little studio apartment and saving every penny I have to get my A license and then eventually a wingsuit.
IT is in norway, in møre and romsdal. The most famous part of norway for BASE. It is on the other side of the troll latter. Just google it and you will find it =D
Det er det sykeste jeg noen gang har sett! Ekstreme skills blandet med storslått natur! Hvor gammel var du da du begynte med skydiving/proximity flying?
Jeg startet med fallskjermhopping for ca 5 år siden, så jeg har ikke holdt på så lenge, men fordi jeg startet såpass sent har jeg hatt resurser til å hoppe veldig mye, så jeg har rundt 750 fallskjermhopp og 200+ base, hvorav mesteparten er wingsuit base.
Detta är det sjukaste, mest underbara jag sett =DD jävla galningar vi har till grannar !! Detta är en sådan dröm man har men som man aldrig kommer våga, håller mig till skärmflyg jag =D Keep on the good work !!
med et bra stup for å bygge opp energi, er det mulig å mer eller mindre flate ut over en kort periode. Jeg har hørt noen si at jeg går litt opp når jeg flater ut etter flyby over trollstigen også, men det er nok ikke mange sekundene i såfall. Jeg får måle det med gps en gang :)
Is it easy to turn in those suits? i mean id be shit scared about flying into the lake.

Awesome dude! Thanks for the info comments - great for beginners doing research - you're a funny guy too! Look forward to more Vids - blue skies and safe rides.

@Zisaar
Its not superhard to learn, but it requires some time and dedication because it takes time hiking up those mountains to get the practise. It also takes quite a lot time to prepare to even start basejumping, and from there to start wingsuit base jumping.

@HalvorAngvik Is speed flying easier?
Zisaar 1 year ago
@Zisaar
If you are standing on scratch with no skydiving experience it takes less preparations to start speedriding, than to start basejumping.
It is two totally different sports, so its hard to compare the two in terms of difficulty. Neither is hard in any way if you go to the right place with the right gear and the right guys, and don't totally fuck up. The main difference is that if you start the right place in speedriding and fuck up, you can try again. If you fuck up in base thats harder

They're making a 3d movie about this... Can't wait to see that on IMAX 3d.
It's really the closest we can get to real flight, so I'd love to try out a wingsuit (but then as a normal skydiver. I'm not one of those ultimate thrillseekers like the guys (an girls?) in this video.)

Amazing stuff, I'd love to try this. I have done some skydiving in the past and there isn't too much skill involved, this looks alot different though. So how much skill is involved in this and how long does it take to be able to get to a basic level ? Thanks
xtpawtx 1 year ago
@xtpawtx
you need a littlebit more than basic level to fly this close within reasonable risks. I have focused on proxy flying every spare time i have, both winter and summer the last two years and have done about 200 wingsuit jumps during that time, but it all depends on avaliable jumps, time, who you jump with and your personal progression.

Oh my god, I want to be you when I grow up. Videos like this are basically why I'm living in a tiny little studio apartment and saving every penny I have to get my A license and then eventually a wingsuit.

Halvor Hello ... this is one of the most extreme videos I've seen my ... Congratulations ...!!!
The proximity with which you fly through the trees and the land are incredible.
I live in Brazil and I am also skydiver ... soon begin to train a wingsuit flight with a coach in my area jumping here in Brazil.
Blue sky and good jumps to you Halvor.

@emiemiemi90
Jeg startet med fallskjermhopping for ca 5 år siden, så jeg har ikke holdt på så lenge, men fordi jeg startet såpass sent har jeg hatt resurser til å hoppe veldig mye, så jeg har rundt 750 fallskjermhopp og 200+ base, hvorav mesteparten er wingsuit base.

Med stor fart og en slakk kurve, er det da mulig å fly et stykke oppover? :-)
Kolbein837 1 year ago
@Kolbein837
med et bra stup for å bygge opp energi, er det mulig å mer eller mindre flate ut over en kort periode. Jeg har hørt noen si at jeg går litt opp når jeg flater ut etter flyby over trollstigen også, men det er nok ikke mange sekundene i såfall. Jeg får måle det med gps en gang :)
