Left is the one that makes the LIs that top left into bottom right?
Okay so his understanding of directions sucks, but the intent of the question is valid. I'm a little unclear on which takeoff goes where.
Nico left for Rampage last Tuesday and Brendan is going about now. They are both competing.
Awesome! I'm getting excited for this
This should clear things up.This is my take on it
That long take off on the bottom goes to a landing that can't be seen?
So who is going to do it first?
why don't they just give it the full marketing money shot and have them jump through a giant oakley "o"
Not really
ON FIRE!!!!!!!
fireworks & great white playing.
if an austrian can skydive from low earth orbit, i think these guys can figure out a step-down.
8 months of prep with a whole lot of science, testing, and planning with a ton of tech on your side and a fair number of contingency plans feels safer to me then "high five bruh, you got this"
because that's exactly how it happens
I can think of a few guys with whom it usually goes exactly like thatbecause that's exactly how it happens
well yea, I doubt they've got engineers calculating velocities and launch trajectories, but these guys have a number of years of experience doing this kind of stuff.I can think of a few guys with whom it usually goes exactly like that
"team of scientists" may be a little generous
Google Shane McConkey...who, surprise, surprise was working on a RedBull project..
Who's going hucking in a wingsuit now? That would be awesome
Low blow and not accurate. McConkey died because of equipment failure doing what he normally does, not pushing himself beyond his limitations.
How is that a low blow or inaccurate? First off, Shane was the man and as a skier I am well aware of his history going all the way back to his father. If something is tried and successfully pulled off, then it seems to be within limitations; so when the stakes get raised the consequences of "beyond limitations" become dire. If someone stacks it in off the Oakley sender because their frame snaps and they end up a quad..is it just equipment failure?
Low blow because you're using the death of a guy doing something he loved to do to criticize the sponsor that made it possible for him to do it.
Well, yeah, it would be equipment failure - that's literally, precisely what you just described. But that's not to say it would be an equipment defect. That kind of use is beyond normal or foreseeable use for most folks.
True enough, but the experience these guys bring the table make these calculated risks - more calculated than it might seem to mere mortals like me and (perhaps) you.
